That same year of the Oregon Ducks players Luke Ridnour is awarded with the Pacific Ten Conference best player prize. The Ducks’ main rivals are the Oregon State Beavers and the Washington Huskies.
More recently in 2007 the team was able to get to the Elite Eight tournament. The team’s Head Coach is Ernie Kent who received the Pac 10 Coach of the Year Award in 2002.
During the 2007-08 period, the team managed to slip into the NCAA Tournament, but the outlook did not favor the squad.
Coach Ernie Kent's team has struggle to achieve continuous performance, thus wanting to improve the frontcourt this 2008-09 season in order to be ready for a possible run on the NCAA Tournament.
