Football continued from page 5 Phinisee showed the most promise this spring, but will be challenged in the fall by junior college transfer David Dixon. “Replacing Rashad and Steve is definitely not going to be easy, but I have confidence in the guys we have now,” safety Keith Lewis said. “Stevie Moore is doing a great job. He’s a little guy, very aggressive, and he’s showing how physical he can be for his little frame. ” “Charles Favroth and Justin Phinisee have a little growing up to do, but their athleticism is going to keep them in the game. Staying in secondary, Rasuli Webster and Lewis return as the starters. Two linebackers, Kevin Mitchell and David Moretti, return, with a host of others battling for the out side spot. Senior Garret Graham started the Spring Game but will have strong competition in the fall. Oregon’s defensive line may be its biggest strength next year. In addi tion to returning starters Seth McEwen and Quinn Dorsey, the Ducks will likely promote Igor Ol shansky and Robby Valenzuela, but have a handful of contenders, in cluding senior Darrell Wright. And that’s not even mentioning those who will show up in the fall. Haloti Ngata, one of the top recruits in the country, will join the team in the fall as a true fresh man, along with junior college transfer Junior Siavii and fresh man Chris Solomona.

It will only help Fife if he can take advantage next season. But Fife’s lack of experience will hurt him just like it will hurt any of the three prospects for the job. No scrimmage can prepare a young quarterback for the pres sure of a fourth-quarter come back, and Harrington proved last season that even the most talent ed signal-callers can’t avoid close-game situations. That’s exactly why Oregon head coach Mike Bellotti needs to name Fife the starter as soon as the Ducks hit fall camp. Put confi dence in him, and there’s a greater chance that he will have confi dence when Oregon meets Missis sippi State on Aug. 31. Fife isn’t a high-schooler any more, and he won’t throw a tantrum if he isn’t chosen as the No. 1 starter. On the other side of the issue, Bellotti doesn’t need to name a starter for posterity’s sake. But still, if there’s a clear-cut No. 1 heading into the season, Oregon will have ample amounts of green-and-yellow pills of con fidence, a drug that the Ducks thrived on last season. And maybe then, Fife will get a chance to finish his Big Story.
