Howland leaves Pitt
By Beth Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Ben
Howland knows he will never
be another John Wooden. He
still wants to try.
Howland took over as
UCLA coach Thursday, leaving
behind a Pittsburgh program he
took to national prominence for
a chance to lead the Bruins,
whom he idolized growing up
in Santa Barbara.
“It’s so exciting,” he said.
“It’s a dream I’ve realized.”
The 45-year-old Howland
becomes the eighth coach at
UCLA since Wooden retired in
1975 after leading the Bruins to
10 NCAA championships in a
12-year span.
UCLA has won only one title
since Wooden retired, under Jim
Harrick in 1995.
“I really embrace and revel
in the history and tradition of
this program,” Howland said.
“John Wooden and UCLA bas
ketball are synonymous. He’s
the greatest, not only because
of the national championships
he helped win, but equally
importantly, the way he con
ducted the program in such
class and dignity.”
Howland signed a seven-year
contract with a base guarantee
of $900,000-plus per year. It
includes bonuses for graduation
rate, being selected national
coach of the year, reaching the
Final Four and winning national
and Pac-10 Conference titles
that could push his salary over
$1 million.
UCLA athletic director Dan
Guerrero said Howland and the
university will jointly pay a
$750,000 buyout of his Pitt
contract.
“The bottom line is we got
our man,” Guerrero said. “We
expect big things from this
hire, and no more than what
Ben expects.”
Howland will try to rebuild
the battered Bruins, just as he
led Pitt from Big East doormat
to national championship con
tender in four years.
“We have a lot of work to
do,” he said. “This is not an
overnight project.”
Howland has a 168-99
record in nine years as a head
coach — five at Northern
Arizona and four at Pitt. The
Panthers reached the final 16 of
the NCAA tournament the last
two years.
He will run a UCLA program
coming off its first losing season
in 55 years. Steve Lavin was
fired March 17 after the Bruins
went 10-19, ending their string
of 14 consecutive NCAA tour
nament appearances.
“I don’t know a lot about
them as players or as kids yet,”
said Howland, who met with his
new team for 30 minutes
Thursday. “It’s a clean slate for
everyone in the program.”
a
I knew right away
what I wanted to do,
which was to pursue
this opportunity.
— Ben Howland
UCLA head basketball coach
Howland planned to fly to
the Final Four in New Orleans
with his 15-year-old son later
Thursday, then go to Pittsburgh
on Sunday to meet with his for
mer players before flying to Los
Angeles on Monday to meet
individually with the Bruins.
“I saw the eyes of the play
ers. They were sitting on the
edges of their seats and they
were all making eye contact,”
Guerrero said. “To a person, I
would say they all bought in.”
Howland can begin recruit
ing next Tuesday; however, all
13 of UCLA’s scholarships are
committed for next season.
“The No. 1 thing in recruit
ing is players in your own area.
There’s not a more fertile
ground for players than right
here in Southern California,” he
said. “We’ve got to get back
doing a great job of evaluating
and attracting that talent.”
Howland said he would meet
with the 92-year-old Wooden at
the Final Four.
Friday, April 4, 2003
for UCLA
“He’s a living legend,” he
said. “He’s a role model for
me. Basketball players want to
be like Mike (Jordan). Coaches
want to be like Wooden. But
understand there’s only one
and there will never be another
John Wooden.”
The day after Pitt lost to
Marquette in the third round of
the NCAA tournament, Howland
had a friend contact Guerrero.
“1 knew right away what I
wanted to do, which was to pur
sue this opportunity,” the
coach said.
Guerrero received permis
sion from Pitt to contact
Howland last Saturday, and
arrangements were made for the
coach to meet with Guerrero in
Santa Barbara the next day.
On Tuesday, Guerrero nego
tiated with Howland’s represen
tative, then the coach met with
UCLA chancellor Albert
Carnesale on Wednesday night.
“I wanted it so badly, I
arranged through some friends
who have a Gulfstream jet to get
myself here on my own,”
Howland said. “In fact, you
owe me, Dan.”
Howland thanked everyone,
from his earliest coach at the
Boys Club in Goleta, Calif., to
Utah coach Rick Majerus,
whom he described as his best
friend in coaching.
“I would not be sitting here
if not for Rick,” he said.
Howland was not the only
candidate interviewed by
Guerrero, although he was the
only one to meet with Carnesale.
The chancellor briefly interrupt
ed Howland’s chat with
reporters to hug him after the
news conference that was
attended by Howland’s parents,
wife and son.
“He’s coming in with a dif
ferent style than what’s been
here before,” Guerrero said.
One of Howland’s top priori
ties is to hire his staff, who will
earn more than previous UCLA
assistants, a condition he sought.
“I’m really appreciative of
that,” he said. “The key is
your staff. The reason I’ve had
success through the past nine
years is I had great assistant
coaches working together to
get the job done.”
Equestrian
Continued from page 7
Unfortunately for the Aggies, that leaves the team
out in the cold, but on an individual level, there are
as many as six women still vying for a chance to
compete at nationals in the individual competitions
held at the same time as team competition.
The Aggies are heading to New Mexico hoping
for a little help from Assistant Coach Pamela
Bruemmer, as she is familiar with New Mexico
State and many of the horses that the women will
be riding.
“We have a little home team advantage because
I’m familiar with some of those horses,”
Bruemmer said. “I know the facility and some of
the training they have had so hopefully the girls
will have a bit of an edge with my education on
what they will be facing.”
The edge comes from the fact that the women
are not allowed to meet the horse before they ride
it. The women are given a horse at random and are
left to direct it to the best of their abilities. The sit
uation is made more difficult in that the women are
not allowed to know their pattern before the day of
the meet. This puts mental and physical pressure
on the rider.
“There’s a ton of work going on. They have to
have the horses figure out what their legs are
doing, and their hands are telling them something
else and so many other things, and it has to be
seamless,” Bruemmer said.
The competition starts at 9 a.m. on Saturday in
Las Cruces.
SPORTS IN BRIEF
Aggies open outdoor season
The national champion Texas A&M archery team
returns to action Saturday to compete in the Lone
Star FITA in Austin. This will be the first tourna
ment of the outdoor season for the Aggie archers.
Last month A&M captured its third consecutive
National Archery Association indoor champi
onship. Senior Dawn Chuddy also won the second
indoor national title of her career.
The tournament is split into two days of action.
The first day, called a FITA round, consists of each
archer shooting 144 arrows, after which officials
tabulate scores and arrange a bracket for tourna
ment play on the second day.
Hosted by the University of Texas club team, the
Lone Star FITA normally attracts individual and
unattached archers from around Texas.
The FITA round of the Lone Star tournament
begins Saturdays at the University of Texas
Intramural Fields. Head-to-head competition will
take place on Sunday.

Ivey, Texas ready for Final Four
NEW ORLEANS (AP) —
Royal Ivey took a long time to
think about who might be able to
stop his teammate, star guard T.J.
Ford of Texas.
Only one person came to mind.
“I do it in practice every
day,” Ivey says with a smile,
drawing a big laugh from Ford
and a room full of reporters.
“That’s my teammate,” Ivey
said. “I know all his moves.”
And who’s to argue? Texas
coach Rick Barnes doesn’t open
his practices to the media, so only
the Longhorns know what goes
on behind closed doors.
Ivey’s play in games is no
secret. He’s the Longhorns best
perimeter defender, picking up
much of his footwork from his
days as a dancer in school.
Texas counts on him to shut
down an opponent’s best scorer,
both on the court and in his
head. He’s the team’s best trash
talker, the guy who nicknamed
Ford “Rat.”
“When Royal gets in some
body’s head,” Thomas said, “it’s
lights out.”
Making its first appearance in
the Final Four since 1947, Texas
(26-6) plays Syracuse (28-5)
Saturday night in the semifinals.
Of course, Ivey’s assignment
won’t be to guard the 5-foot-10
Ford, but to get a handle on
Syracuse’s 6-8 freshman forward
Carmelo Anthony. Ivey is 6-3.
“He is a tough matchup,”
Barnes said. “Roy would be the
guy that would start on him.”
Ivey credits his development
as a defender to his time dancing
in school in Queens, N.Y. His
danced his way into the into a
magnet high school where he took
courses in ballet and hip-hop.
“Defense is about coordina
tion and timing,” Ivey said.
“Dancing helps with those.”
Ivey started 26 games at point
guard as a freshman at Texas
before Ford arrived. He earned
his reputation as defensive stop
per when he shut down former
Stanford All-American Casey
Jacobson in a Texas win in 2001.
Ivey held Jacobson to nine
points on 3-for-17 shooting, jaw
ing at him the whole game.
“I let him know I was going to
be with him all day. He kind of
smiled at me like ‘Man, you can’t
guard me. ’ Then the ball went up
and I shut him down,” Ivey said.
His verbal jabs are subtle,
under-the-breath braggadocio
meant solely for the ears of the
intended target. He won’t say
what say exactly what message
he’ll have for Anthony.
“I can’t give out my lines,”
he said.
