Andy Ludwig, Oregon’s offensive
coordinator and quarterback coach.
“Voss is probably done for the rest
of the spring. His reps were valuable
to him and the team. (His injury) is
unfortunate, but that just gives
Kellen and Jason the opportunity
for more reps, and they need to
make the most of those reps.”
The Ducks’ only other quarter
back option is essentially not an op
tion. Walk-on Matt Kennedy joined
the team during the first week of the
spring and may get “a couple” of
plays in the team’s second scrim
mage Friday, Ludwig said.
Considering, though, the of
fense’s performance at the first
scrimmage of the spring Saturday,
Kennedy might be worth a look. Af
ter the defensively-dominated
scrimmage — in which the Oregon
offense scored just one touchdown
by a walk-on running back — Bel
lotti said the team is not where it
needs to be at this point.
The burden, it seems, then falls
heavily on the right shoulders of
Fife and Clemens.
Fife, a junior to be, is the only
quarterback on the roster with game
experience, however limited it may
be. He has 11 attempts in four career
appearances.
“I’ve never thought of myself as
the old guy,” Fife said. “I’m just try
ing to focus on myself. I can’t worry
about anyone else.”
At 6-foot-4, 216 pounds, Fife is
the prototypical quarterback, and
Bellotti has praised him for his abil
ity to run the offense as designed.
“I think Fife is a good quarter
back, and I really think he gave Har
rington a run for his money last
year,” Oregon junior safety Keith
Lewis said. “The thing is, Fife’s not
going to be a Heisman candidate.
Harrington’s a good kid, a good
quarterback, but Fife gave him a run
for his money last year. ”
Clemens, a redshirt freshman, is

a sharp contrast to Fife. The 6-foot
2, 205-pound Burns native is noted
for his quick feet and ability to elude
defenders on the run. But his expe
rience and knowledge of the offense
are concerns.
“Kellen Clemens does a lot of
things very exciting, but he also
makes some mistakes which could
be exciting the other way,” Bellotti
said. “He will compete for the
starting job. He’s best when things
break down, but we needs to get
better at the normal execution of
the offense.”
Clemens said he is just trying to
adapt to his new role.
“Obviously I don’t have a lot of
experience — I was on the scout
team last year— so my expectations
of myself at this point are just to
compete and do whatever I can to
help the team,” he said. “I obviously
want playing time any way I can get
it, but I’m not stressing anything
right now.
“If I can help this team as a starter,
great. If not, I’ll just try to help by
pushing Fife.”
The two signal callers will have a
chance at redemption at Friday’s
scrimmage and will ultimately try
to prove themselves at the annual
Spring Game at PGE Park in Port
land on April 27.
“Both of them are getting better
every day,” Ludwig said. “I’m
pleased with their work ethic.
“But they got to get better.”

him out of most of the regular sea
son. He returned to action for the
first time at the Washington Dual
on Saturday, where he finished
third in the 400 meters and fourth
in the discus.
“It was fun coming back,” Pap
pas said. “I was injured for a
while, so once I started training
again I realized how much I
missed it.”
Pappas said he doesn’t have a
specific point-goal for this week’s
Mt. SAC event, but he does real
ize the significance of the last de
cathlon before the Pac-10 meet.
“I at least want to get to Pac-lOs,”
said Pappas, who will have this
one chance to hit the Pac-10 quali
fying mark of 6,800 points and
only two chances to hit the NCAA
provisional mark of 7,150 points.
“I try not to set specific goals for
myself, it’s more fun that way.”
Pappas and Slye will lead the
Oregon charge into the Mt. SAC
relays with the start of the de
cathlon today. Several other
Ducks will compete in the meet
this weekend, starting Thursday
and running through Sunday.
