    Oregon's star RB arrested on strangulation, assault charges

    PORTLAND, Ore. (AP)
    Oregon running back LaMichael James has been arrested by Springfield police.

    The 20-year-old tailback was taken into custody Wednesday and lodged at the Lane County Jail on misdemeanor charges of menacing, strangulation and assault.

    Springfield police said they were not ready to discuss details of the incident.

    James replaced the suspended LeGarrette Blount after the season opener and set the Pac-10's freshman rushing mark this past season with 1,546 yards.

    Strangulation doesn't sound like a real term, shouldn't it just fall under assault? Or maybe even chocking.

    This guy went to my HS and is the cousin of my best friend's wife. I'll have to call and see if she knows anything about it. He was a good kid in HS from what I know.

    "I thought Strangulation was a new play we were learning for next season - I have to plead ignorance...on multiple levels."

    What the heck is going on with the Ducks? Now Masoli is being charged with theft.

    Oregon's Masoli to face burglary count

    EUGENE, Ore. (AP)
    Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli, who helped lead the Ducks to the Pac-10 Conference title and a Rose Bowl berth last season, faces a burglary charge in connection with a theft at a campus fraternity house in late January.

    The Lane Country district attorney's office says Masoli and former Oregon receiver Garrett Embry were each charged Wednesday with one count of burglary in the second degree.

    Masoli and Embry were scheduled to be arraigned in Lane County Circuit Court on Friday afternoon.

    The district attorney's office did not respond to a phone call seeking further comment on the case. A spokesman for the Ducks said the team had no comment.

    A fraternity member reported that Masoli and Embry stole two computers and a guitar from the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house on Jan. 25.

    Police were tightlipped about the alleged theft, claiming it was under investigation.
    The Ducks announced in early February that Embry had been dismissed from the team a month before for violating team rules unrelated to the alleged theft.

    Masoli, who came to the Ducks as a junior college transfer out of Daly City, Calif., threw for 2,147 yards and 15 touchdowns last season. He also rushed for 668 yards and 13 touchdowns.

    Oregon made a remarkable comeback from a season-opening loss to Boise State to win its first Pac-10 title since 2001 and earn its first trip to the Rose Bowl since 1995. Oregon came up short in Pasadena, losing 26-17 to Ohio State.

    Embry appeared in 11 games last season, mostly on special teams.
