Grady, you'll find this hard to believe, but in a twisted way, so did I. You see, I'm a Beavers fan. The Beavers are the state's "redneck" team, while the Ducks are the State's "country club" team...by tradition. Oh, Terry Baker "sort of" went to the pros. He was drafted by the then L.A. Rams, but released during training camp. I recall a Rams coach being quoted as saying that from the waist up, Baker was built like a choir boy...he definitely wouldn't have set any bench press records, but with good protection, he was a great college quarterback of his time. Very smart as well...went on to be a successful lawyer. Still lives in Portland, as far as I know.
