“We need to step up our intensity
a little bit,” Kent said. “We just need
to fine tune our whole system.”
The coach and the players said
that the Ducks will be especially
looking to cut down on turnovers, af
ter they committed a combined 46 in
the exhibition games.
“I think we’re trying to do too
much with the ball,” Kent said. “We
need to pass the ball more, instead
of hanging on to it. ”
On offense, Jones is on the cusp of
moving up in the Oregon record
books, and could achieve several
milestones this weekend. Jones
needs six points to reach 1,000 for
his career, 29 points to move into
19th-place all-time at Oregon, seven
blocks to move into fourth all-time
and eight three-pointers to move into
sixth all-time.
Jones will have a shot to achieve
all those marks only because the
Ducks will play three games this
weekend.
Ducks sign three top recruits
Oregon ensured its future will be
in good hands Wednesday with the
signing of two high school athletes
and one junior college transfer.
Brandon Lincoln, a 6-foot-4 guard
from Portland’s Jefferson High who is
ranked by ESPN.com as one of the top
100 prep seniors, and Kent’s son, Jor
dan, a 6-foot-4 guard from Churchill
High, are the two prep signees.
The JC addition is 6-foot-3 guard
Andre Joseph, out of Lee Junior Col
lege in Texas, where he averaged
15.8 points per game.
“This is a versatile group that can
fill a lot of needs,” Kent said.

job midway through his sophomore
year. Now, as a fifth-year senior
who will earn a degree in sports
marketing at the end of the term,
Harrington has learned to take
things in stride.
“His work ethic is unmatched by
anyone else on the team,” Peelle
said. “Off the field, he’s just relaxed.
When he got here, he was so up
tight and so tense. He’s just really
relaxed now and has embraced col
lege and is enjoying the life.”
Harrington will likely be enjoying
life in the National Football League
in the years to come. Many have
projected that he may be a top-10
first-round selection in next year’s
draft.
“He’s just a total team player,”
Oregon offensive coordinator Jeff
Tedford said. “He’s definitely good
enough to take it to the next level.”
Just hope, for Joey’s sake, his fu
ture teammates don’t get wind of
the nickname “Princess.”
