A conversation with Jadrian Tracey, Oregon's Bam with the Cam
The I-5 Corridor caught up with Oregon's 6-foot-5 guard to chat about his new passion and what got into his Ducks in March.
EUGENE — Before taking the sideline of Autzen Stadium and planting his 6-foot-5 frame behind a camera, Oregon men’s basketball guard Jadrian Tracey remembered the most important advice he received from GoDucks.com editor-in-chief Rob Moseley.
“Mr. Rob says, ‘Get. Out. The. Way,’” said Tracey, a junior who has worked throughout the spring as a photographer shooting sporting events around UO. “If you see them coming towards you, make sure you pick up your head and look how close they actually are to you.”
Tracey, of course, is more comfortable on the hardwood where he started the final 18 games this season for an Oregon team that caught fire late and reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time in three years. Tracey and his teammates were honored during the spring game, but then the former St. Joe’s guard had to go back to work trailing around UO graduating creative intern Carter Cunningham throughout the game.
The I-5 Corridor caught up with Tracey, AKA Bam with the Cam, after his day on the sidelines to learn about his passion and what the heck got into his Ducks in March.
