HAGER continued from page 5 best collegiate athletic program in the country — would be on an is land of its own. California, which is commonly re fereed to as one of the best public uni versities in the nation, would be gone. UCLA and USC — both not too shab by, either — would be left with less ex posure. There would be no bowls, no trips to the Sweet 16 and no College World Series berths. California schools would be left out in the cold. "The bill will do far greater harm than good," NCAA President Myles Brand told the Los Angeles Times. "You put the institutions in a terrible bind — if they follow state law, they're immedi ately out of the NCAA." Nebraska enacted a bill that gives stu dent-athletes the ability to be paid, but that was contingent on four of the six states that have teams playing in the Big 12 Conference passing similar bills. That has yet to happen. The California bill would create a dangerous precedent. It's a scary thought that four prominent Pac-10 teams would be forced out into the cold. It would be an NCAA seriously depleted on the West Coast. If Murray and Burton really have the best interests of students at mind — as they claim — they'd back off the bill. There wouldn't be enough money to pay every student-athlete in the state, anyway. Better yet, no bowls and no postseason basketball would be a seri ous lack of motivation for most of the players. That would be the case even if they did get paid. Money doesn't cure all. Let's hope it doesn't ail everyone else. Contact the sports editor at hankhager@dailyemerald.com.

"It's hard to see Jodi go down," Madi son said. "I've learned a lot from her this season. I'm excited for the oppor tunity, but I have some big shoes to fill." Madison will have three days of prac tice with Oregon's first team before Thursday's match against Arizona. In that time frame, the Ducks will need to develop an on-court chemistry with Madison if the offense has any chance of being successful. "We all knew the sensitive situation of Heather really wanting to do well and us really needing to accept her and make her feel like she's a good part of this team," sophomore middle blocker Kelly Russell said. "She's someone who can accomplish every thing that Jodi did." Oregon (3-20 overall, 0-14 Pacific-10 Conference) is entering its final homes tand of the year, with Thursday's match against the Wildcats and a Friday show down with Arizona State. The Ducks will need to step up in order to help Madison with the transition from re serve to starter if they want to win their first home match of the season. Arizona (12-13, 6-8) will enter McArthur Court as the No. 28 team in the country and one that defeated Ore gon 3-0 on Oct. 16. Arizona State (8 15, 3-11) will likely provide Oregon with its best chance for a Pac-10 victory Friday. The Ducks travel to No. 7 Stan ford and No. 9 California the week after to finish the season. The Sun Devils de feated Oregon, 3-0, on Oct. 17. "It's something that we've been working for all season," Russell said of capturing the team's first conference victory. "It's come down to the end and we really want it. We're playing the Arizona schools, so we'll be fired up for that." Before the Ducks worry about win ning a Pac-10 match, they must first make sure that their heads are in the right place and not worrying about Bell's injury. "All the girls were sad for her, and they want to be there for her," assis tant coach Rhonda Rust said. "But at the same time, we have a very strong team, and they feel very comfortable with moving forward and Heather stepping in." Contact the sports reporter atjonroetman@daiiyemerald.com. PAC-10 continued from page 6 Price told The Arizona Republic. "It's a place I'd love to be." Arizona President Peter Likens made his view on Price known shortly after former head coach Mackovic was fired, telling the Tuc son (Ariz.) Citizen that "the cloud over him is not a cloud we can ac cept over us." But Price told the Spokesman-Re view and reporters who have contact ed him since that he believes he can change opinions and clear his name. "Coaching is all I ever wanted to do," Price told the Spokesman-Re view. "It's all I've ever done. I think I have a calling. I think I can still mo tivate and lead people."
