Those poor professors at Oregon are under the delusion that their jobs are to educate young people or conduct research, when their real jobs are to babysit post-adolescent football fans during the week.
This was the most interesting sentence in the article:
Quote:"That line was crossed in 2010 when Richard Lariviere, then UO president, warned the State Board of Higher Education of dire consequences if board members failed to give Knight approval to do as he pleased without administrative oversight while constructing Hatfield-Dowlin."
Perhaps this explains why Knight has not lavished more of his largesse on the Farm.
C'mon guys, let's get real here. Even these days $105 million ain't hay.
