Heck, I'm so old I don't know what that means, but I do like those unis also.

Would an equity deal allow the equity partner to "control" all of the schools because they are an "owner" of 15% of each school? If so, then it was a no brainer to turn it down or legally not accomplishable as you can't sell a portion of a state school.

Hard to believe Mr. Scott is not tooting this horn based upon all the negative publicity/blame he got and is getting. Or did he present the offer while badmouthing it at the same time?

College football's top brands ranked by high school recruits WWW.MSN.COM Brand recognition is the name of the game in any business, and college football is no different. Over the last 150 years, a few schools have stood out from the crowd in establishing... I'm happy being in top 10 and ahead of #10, pissed Mari given so much credit. The good old fine print has ewe dub @ 35

Gotta remember, that was against the old prevent offense.

Oh, and by the way, has tied Candace Parker for most career triple doubles, 3. Sabrina Sabrina in 3 seasons, Candace 13 seasons.

Phil Steele predicts 2022 preseason college football rankings WWW.MSN.COM We're still about two months from seeing college football kick off around the country, but midway through summer, that makes it...

We only need them until 2036 when after 13 more W's in a row, we will lead the series 61-60-5. Gotta savor this from Wikipedia ..... Oregon beat Washington in 12 straight games from 2004–2015, the largest winning streak in the rivalry. This streak correlated with Oregon's most successful era of football and Washington's least. The Ducks went 120–36 (.769) over these 12 seasons, with two national championship game appearances, four conference titles, two Rose Bowl victories, and a Heisman Trophy winner. Meanwhile, the Huskies went 62–88 (.413) including a winless 0–12 in 2008.

Fat lady isn't even in the building.

What if .... It is in Oregon's best interest to shed the Pac and separate itself from OSU; and The state legislature blocks the move based upon being in the same educational system; and Oregon then withdraws from the state system and goes private? I think the idea of going private was tossed around a few years ago based upon less then 20% of the budget coming from the state coffers. Well, we have an alum, or alums, who could easily foundationally fund the difference.

Five-Star ATH Matayo Uiagalelei talks recent Oregon visit, Pac-12 minus LA schools 247SPORTS.COM Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco athlete Matayo Uiagalelei took his final June official visit last weekend to Oregon and said the Ducks made a big impression. Let's hope there are more recruits with this attitude.... “That won’t really impact my decision,” Uiagalelei said. “I honestly haven’t thought much about it. My goals are still the same, I want to try and go in to college, make an early impact and get to the League in 3-4 years. “For USC, it probably helps them to play against better competition. I’m sure Oregon will be fine and Ohio State is still Ohio State. Location was never a factor for me, I’ll go anywhere, I’m just looking for the best all around fit.”

"but I’m not sure I want to go as far as call him “crazed” either." I will as that ship sailed looooooong ago. Happy Birthday to the other Sir Charles from the other Steven A.

Ohio State Athletic Director Has Message For Notre Dame WWW.MSN.COM After adding USC and UCLA from the Pac-12, the Big Ten Conference is hoping to add a prized school that's much closer to their home base: Notre Dame. One person who is a strong voice... Is this good news for the Ducks? P.S. So sue me for not using your copyrighted initials buckeyes.

Titanic times for the Pac, time to get on our own lifeboat. Waterfowl first, all else start swimming for shore.

Works for me. The Pac 8, 10, 12 as we knew it is now dead after 50+ years. Long live the new KINGdom as long as we are part of it.

Oregon lands three-star in-state EDGE rusher Teitum Tuioti 247SPORTS.COM A busy week for Oregon football continues as Dan Lanning and company have landed the verbal commitment of three-star EDGE rusher Teitum Tuioti on Saturday afternoon. Well, that was easy, as long as dad remains the DL coach.

Blindsided, yes. But disagree on unacceptable. It was not his fault that somehow this was kept a secret. But, I don't think we have seen the end result yet. This may have been the canary in the coal mine and now the puppet masters (media revenue) have the blood in the water they want. Oregon is a prize fish and maybe we are a free agent now. If so, thank the Bruins and Trojans.

I think my head and the earth will quit spinning at the same time.

Same as you and everyone else on the forum.

Verbals like Sir Mells and Ben Roberts who are now Ducks?

For now!

Mari better look over his shoulder, Ruiz is going to want a good ROI (return on investment) both in Cristbal and the players he pays. Remember Maimi got rid of their last coach without an AD in place

I'm assuming there will be a hefty endowment that will last for decades, not only for sports but for academics also. See Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact.

Charles can tell us to whom to give credit for that phrase.

No trap games this year as the prevent offense has left the room.
