BASKETBALL

"They are a really athletic team and
they will look to pound the ball in
side to him (Boxley)," senior Luke
Jackson said. 'They have three or four
guys that can drive to the hole and fin
ish because they are so athletic and
strong. We're definitely going to have
to guard against that."
Oregon will look to win its 22nd
consecutive nonconference game at
home. It could be a heated contest;
four of the last five games between
these two teams have been decided by
11 points or less.
"They're definitely going to come
here fighting; they're not going to lay it
down for us," Lincoln said. "So we're
going to have to bring our 'A' game and
just come into this game prepared."
It is the first of two games this week
for Oregon. The Ducks will travel to
Portland to play Marshall in this year's
Pape Jam at the Rose Garden. Neither of
the two games will generate as much in
terest though, as Oregon's much-await
ed contest with Kansas on December 13.
Kansas is currently ranked No. 1 in
the Associated Press Top 25 Poll this
week after all four teams ranked
above it lost over the weekend. But
Oregon has duties to attend to before
playing in the largest nonconference
game in recent years.
'These next couple ball games, start
ing with Portland State, both of these
teams are great one-on-one basketball
teams," Kent said. 'That's an area where
we really want to concentrate on, so
these are going to be good games for us.*
If Oregon's offense can perform like
it did 10 days ago, it shouldn't have any
troubles tonight. The Ducks had 20 as
sists on 26 baskets and made 14 three
pointers. Jackson had a career high of
five from beyond the arc.
"We're just going to stay as hungry
as we can and attack every team the
same way and not take any team for
granted," Jackson said.
Guard Jordan Kent and center Matt
Short have yet to return to the lineup.
Short is continuing to rehabilitate a
hairline stress fracture in his left foot.
Kent has begun limited practice after
spraining his left ankle on the season's
first day of practice. Neither will play
against the Vikings, but Kent is proba
ble this weekend in the Pape Jam.
Short is expected to see limited ac
tion against Kansas.

step down and in the process, ac
knowledge their mishap.
Tuberville stayed, but a coach with
less of a mental makeup would have
taken off in a heartbeat. Trust is cer
tainly an issue now and the black eye
the school has received from it proba
bly doesn't help either.
What's most concerning about
Auburn's screw up is the message it
will send to the rest of the nation. No,
not that coaches are necessarily re
placeable, but that respect has shriv
eled so much to the point coaches are
lower than players.
Fortunately, it seems as though the
Pacific-10 Conference is on an island all
its own. Oregon's Mike Bellotti, USC's
Pete Carroll and California's JeffTed
ford all are revered for the jobs they've
done at their respective programs. Karl
Dorrell is still learning but is showing
the dignity that's deserved at UCLA,
while Bill Doba has been around at
Washington State long enough to show
he is a man of strong will.
Last and certainly the newest, Mike
Stoops' hiring at Arizona reflects high
ly on the conference and the jobs that
schools have done to ensure person
nel of the highest caliber.
After all, it's not easy being a college
coach these days.

PAC-10

Nation to the city of San Diego,"
Washington State head coach Bill
Doha said. "I had the chance to take
part in this game while I was on the
coaching staff at Indiana (in 1979)
and it was an awesome experience.
There is so much to do in San Diego,
the hospitality is great, the people are
great and we will be facing a high
quality opponent."
The bowl invitation came on the
same day that Doba was named Pac
10 Co-Coach of the Year, sharing the
honor with USC's Pete Carroll.
All-conference teams were also an
nounced Monday. Five Cougars earned
first-team honors. Washington State
also had five players named to the sec
ond-team and six honorable mentions.
USC had nine players selected to
the first-team, two to the second-team
and eight honorable mentions. Tro
jan quarterback Matt Leinart was
named offensive player of the year.
Arizona's baby step
Arizona took its first step toward
the future Saturday when it an
nounced the hiring of Oklahoma de
fensive coordinator Mike Stoops as
tire team's new head coach.
"When we looked for a new man to
lead Arizona's program, one theme that
most attracted me was finding someone
whose background involved a winning
tradition," Arizona athletics director Jim
Iivengood told the Arizona Daily Star.
Stoops takes the reigns at Arizona
following Saturday's Big 12 Champi
onship Game. In five seasons with
Oklahoma, he served as associate
head coach, co-defensive coordinator
and defensive backs coach.
"We would love to restore the pas
sion that the 'Desert Swarm' defenses
of the '90s created here," Stoops told
the Arizona Daily Star. "We want that
kind of attitude and toughness on this
football team. ... To me, (attitude) is
everything. You have to want to win,
you have to know how to win and
you have to expea to win."
"A winning attitude is something
you have to work and create. We will
make sure our work ethic will match
those expectations."
Stoops announced Saturday that his
younger brother, Mark Stoops, will be
Arizona's defensive coordinator. The
younger Stoops has coached the Miami
secondary for three seasons.
As with his coaching staff, Mike
Stoops already has plans in mind for
his Wildcat team.
"It will be very similar to what Ari
zona does right now," Stoops said.
"We will implement an offense that
will spread the field and make people
defend the entire football field."
Playing for last
In Friday's game between Arizona and
Arizona State, the Sun Devils picked up
the victory, 28-7, but Arizona won the
competition for last place in the Pac-10.
The Wildcats finished the season 2
10 overall and 1-7 in the conference
after being led by two coaches this
season. Mike Hankwitz took over at
the end of September.
