Nike value = ~101 billion

Canes value = ~22 billion

It's not quite fair, but it's possible

ETA - After more research...

Phil Knight net worth = $33.2 billion

Todd Graves net worth = $17.2 billion

Much closer than I thought.

More import metric, age:

Phil Knight: 87
Todd Graves: 53

Phil Knight’s kids don’t share his love for Oregon and that gravy train likely ends on his death, or is greatly reduced

Oregon’s money comes from Knight, not Nike - which is a publicly traded company.
