    Oregon football has 'unlimited' NIL backing from Nike

    There are other donors to the Oregon atheltic department, Division Street Fund as of 2022 was generating $10 million a year in revenues for NIL. Not sure how much it's generating now, but I'd be surprised if it hadn't increased significantly. The Ducks aren't going away, we're just getting started.

    Oregon football has 'unlimited' NIL backing from Nike

    I've seen this a number of places. First, it came from SlickRick, the guy fired from Washington (Oregon rival) for betting on NCAA games and the same Ricky that after he left Colorado the NCAA found 51 violations that occurred during his time as coach there. In my opinion the guy has no...

    All Things Minnesota at UCLA at Rose Bowl Stadium October 12, 2024

    It was a Ritz Carlton when I stayed there, I had one of the cottages just off the main building. Everyone working there was perfect! It was "Good Morning Sir, how is your morning? And that would be from the gardener who stopped what he was doing to greet me. And the finale was when I got in the...

    All Things Minnesota at UCLA at Rose Bowl Stadium October 12, 2024

    If you want to treat yourself, stay at the Langham Hotel in Pasadena. I stayed there for a week a couple decades ago (different name then), it's about the nicest place I've stayed. I think Calvin Coolidge used it as a secondary residence when he was president. It's a stunning location, I think...

    Here's a little sampling of Oregon facilities. Actually, the donations are from Phil Knight, note Nike. I know people identify them as one and the same, however they are separate entities. And I believe Jane Sanders Stadium was a donation from a donor other than Phil Knight.

    As a Duck this is hard to say, but Husky Stadium is probably one of the most beautiful football stadiums in the country regardless of conference. As for facilities, I doubt anyone in the B1G ten can complete with Oregon.

    As someone who traveled this country for 30 yrs before retiring, a three hour flight is easy. A bus or ground transport is much more draining. I use to fly out of PDX around noon and arrive in Newark about 8pm. Get a night's sleep and have a 9 am, 11am, 1 pm and 3 pm meeting in Manhattan, then...

    And now you know why U$C would have voted to keep Oregon out of the B1G if they had a vote in the expansion that brought Oregon and WA into the B1G. Plus, they've struggled against the Ducks for the last 20 plus years

    The unnerving thing about John Wayne is taking off out of there when they cut power shortly after takeoff due to noise abatement requirements for the surrounding neighborhood. Then they power back up after they get over the Pacific. First time experiencing that clinched a sphincter.

    So a few decades ago, I was driving south on "the" 5 towards "the" 10 (AKA, the Santa Monica). Traffic got jammed up and when I heard the news, what happened was a nude woman had been walking down the side of the 5 and they sent an ambulance out to check on her. When they got there she was...

    A couple things about Autzen that aren't mentioned often. First the field is non-traditional in that the field runs East West rather than the standard North South. Second, the front row of seats is about 6 feet above the playing surface and the front row is close to the field and the opponents...
