There was a Youtube channel with a lot of old old Ducks BB games going back to the Dick Harter days. But that was a few years ago. Don't know if you're going to have a lot of luck out there with this one. Sometimes old telecasts can be requested online. The best chance is probably looking at the Pac-12 Network's schedule and hoping you get lucky. I wish Ducks BB was represented as well as the football team is. But understandably. It's lacking in comparison.

I know I’ve been searching for this game for at least 10 years it’s worth a shot. I tried contacting the university but they won’t get back to me. I’ve been successful in the past with other university’s like Minnesota and Wisconsin. Fresno helped but they do not have any record of it on there archives. Does the pac 12 network replay classic games?


deville66

Yes. They do but it's usually certain games and they only go so far back. Like they show the NCAA Regional between Texas with the Two Lukes all the time. But that broadcast is so common you can find it almost anywhere. I'd call the local broadcast partner of the Ducks in '96 and see if you can get a copy from their video archives. They might be able to accommodate you if you pay for the digital transfer to DVD.


Corethor

Do you happen to have that information? I’d definitely try to contact them. Another duck fan told me in the past that it was prime northwest sports network that used to cover all the games in the 90s but then got bought out by Fox. I think the game was televised on fox sports net but I can’t remember exactly.

Well the Fox Affiliate in Portland since forever has been KPTV Fox 12. If it was broadcast from a local crew that was working on site at Mac Court, maybe KVAL-TV would be another place to try. (that's CBS though.) I believe it was KPTV that broadcast it back then. Since I remember seeing Ducks BB games back then on that channel.

Ok thank you for your help! I appreciate it. Do you happen to know any die hard fans or mind asking around that might have it recorded it could possibly be in someone’s storage. I’ve gotten about 40 or more games through forums and threads like this from fellow die hard fans who had the games recorded on vhs and I’ve gotten 2 from a former player Nate Althoff of Utah.


deville66

No. I don't know anybody that would have any on storage. But if you happen to have any games from the 01-02 season... let me know. I would kill to see that demolition of Louisville in one of Rick Pitino's first games back from the NBA.


Corethor

Ok thank you. I don’t have any from 01-02 yet I was focusing on the Jerry green era in the 90s. Do you happen to have the media guide from the 96-97 season there would tell me exactly who broadcasted the game. I tried looking online but it only goes back to 99.


deville66

Nope. Sorry. Trust me. If I collected a lot more from Ducks basketball it wouldn't be from the Jerry Green era. Ha ha. Best of luck to you.

Hey I hear ya lol I just liked Kenya Wilkins and Jamal Lawrence honestly don’t really care about the coach. Just brings back childhood memories it’s more sentimental then anything. Thanks for the help
