    Bill Oram: Sorry, Beavers, It’s Time for Oregon State to be More Like Oregon

    Of all the columns I’ve written, few have inspired a bigger response, and none more vitriol, than my suggestion over the weekend that Oregon State missed an opportunity by taking such a casual approach to its spring football showcase.

     

    It mobilized Beavers fans and caused heartburn at the top of the wounded university’s power structure.

    The spring game was just a starting point. OSU needs to capitalize on the sympathy of the nation and ask itself, "What would Oregon do?"

    Canzano: Oregon President Karl Scholz Goes 1-on-1

    in Our Beloved Ducks

    Posted

     

    Canzano can't walk away from OSU's poor plight in life.  I highlighted below him asking "What might UO do to help Oregon State?"  I think they've helped themselves plenty in their stealing of millions.

     

    I’m thinking about the 54,000-seat capacity of Autzen Stadium. Your athletic department has sold more than 10,000 new football season tickets for next season. It makes me wonder about Autzen expansion. Have those conversations crossed your desk?

     

    “Of course. I think we had almost a 93 percent renewal rate on season tickets this year. I think we’re close to plus 11,000 new season tickets. We have to look carefully at that. Is that going to be a permanent phenomenon? In which case, we would have to think about expanding Autzen. Or is this, you know, the novelty of joining the Big Ten? Having Ohio State come in? And it falls off? But these are sort of the season ticket sales numbers that we saw in the heyday of coach (Chip) Kelly’s time. It’s something we’ll keep a close eye on. We want, we want to make Oregon Duck football accessible for people who want to experience the game-day experience. Because the game day experience here is incredible.”

     

    EXCLUSIVE: Big Ten move, Phil Knight, Autzen Expansion, and more

     

    EUGENE — Five weeks after the beginning of Karl Scholz’s tenure as campus president the University of Oregon announced it was joining the Big Ten Conference.

     

    I sat down for an interview with Scholz this week at Johnson Hall, the administration building that houses the UO president’s office. It marked the first time Scholz granted a sports-centric 1-on-1 interview and talked publicly about a variety of topics.

     

    What have the last nine months been like? What can Oregon’s president tell us about the Big Ten transition? What might UO do to help Oregon State? Is an expansion of Autzen Stadium coming? Does television have too much influence over major college athletics? And what will the landscape of college athletics look like in 20 years?

     

    Scholz and I sat in his presidential conference room and talked for 40 minutes. At the end of our meeting, the 64-year-old Scholz turned and pointed to a corner of the room and said: “Did you know they filmed a scene from ‘Animal House’ in this room? In fact, that’s the spot where the horse got scared to death.”

     

    A transcript of my Q-and-A with Oregon’s president:

    The ex-Tennessee coach's proposal is an attempt to offset the financial setback under the new CFP media rights deal

     

    "You've got presidents and chancellors [from the Group of Five] now saying, 'Why would [we sit] around waiting for the inevitable, which is a total break [by the SEC and Big Ten]?'" one Group of Five administrator familiar with Dooley's proposal told CBS Sports. "We better start doing some things."

    Oregon has had just one player transfer out in the Spring portal window, and they're yet to bring someone in despite targeting a couple of names (who are still available). Another target just might have emerged in Michigan State DT transfer Derrick Harmon.

     

    On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin goes on to share a note about each of Oregon's top 2 quarterbacks. Dillon Gabriel should remind Duck fans of Chip Kelly's first quarterback: Jeremiah Masoli. 10:40

     

    Oregon Basketball got HUGE news with the return of KJ Evans for next season. Perhaps even more interesting is that big man N'Faly Dante might not be done as a Duck. 21:40
