    First it was Leaders and Legends, and now this. My faith in college sports has seriously been shaken in the last 48 hours.

    found this on wikipedia


    Philip Hampson "Phil" Knight (born February 24, 1938) is the co-founder and Chairman of Nike, Inc.. He resigned as the company's chief executive officer in 2004, while retaining the position of chairman of the board. As of 2010, Knight's stake in Nike gives him an estimated net worth of US$11.1 billion, making him the 23rd richest person in the U.S.[1]
    A graduate of the University of Oregon and Stanford Graduate School of Business, he has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to the schools. Knight gave the largest donation in history at the time to Stanford's business school in 2006. A native Oregonian, he ran track for coach Bill Bowerman at the University of Oregon, with whom he would co-found Nike.

    Concept with the forest isn't bad, but it didn't turn out the greatest visually.

    If it was the school's goal to have the court design done by members of the Class of 2025, it succeeded.

    We're talking about it, so obviously it's doing what Knight had envisioned.

    You've got to separate yourselves somehow from the pack to make your school unique / attractive.

    Boise State has blue turf for a reason.
