With more and more cold weather cities shifting to huge indoor football facilities built on a land development like Patriot Place, or the soon to be Brook Park Browns(a suburb of Cleveland) and maybe the Bears leaving Soldier Field if their owner is willing to foot the majority of the bill like Jimmy Haslam in Cleveland. Would you support Phil Knight building a castle for the Ducks?

 

I can't see it happening at a place like Eugene, Gainesville, Athens, or most college towns. But nothing would shock me with the growing NFL Lite CFB. An indoor stadium could attract the title game or other huge events. If any school has the backer to do this, it would be Oregon with Phil Knight.

 

Autzen is such a great environment already, so the odds are low.

It is. The last time Oregon touched a "great environment" MKA replaced "The Pit". Nothing predicts the future as well as the past.

And Hayward Field.

Too many memorable plays in unfavorable weather at Autzen to ever consider a dome....

I don't think Eugene has bad enough weather to build a dome stadium.
