Except Haloti Ngata- the Best Defensive Tackle in the NFL, 3 NFL starting Safeties, several running backs who played for us-one being LeGarrette Blount-NFL rookie of the year the year before last, and more, a few linemen and LB's, Tight Ends, CB's,WR's and others out there, you may be right...

Oregon in a landslide. They're going to get a national seed in baseball just because of their Nike money.

I suppose leading the PAC-12 has nothing to do with it.

It looks a lot like one of WM's junior highs' weight room.

ETA: Except West Ridge has more stations.

They really have no history at all. Nike is the primary donor to the school. Finally, who really wants to spend time in Euegene,OR?

We do not have a long history, but we have some. Since 1994, we have been good. Before that, we sucked. 1994-present is almost 20 years. It's not like we just showed up last year, we have been good for 18 years now...

Also, Nike does not give Oregon money. Try the founder and his wife of Nike, as people- Alum, gives our program money. He mainly just likes to build new buildings with it.

The only advantage Nike has with Oregon is that because it is a Oregon based company, founder a Alum, Nike works hand in hand with our school designing Unies. (but they do with all programs)And also we get new gear to test before other schools. But it's not like Nike gives our school money, or pays players or such. No, just the founder and his wife donate as private citizens.

And before many go complaining how much money Phil Knight and his wife donate to UO Athletics, go look up your schools amount in total, then look at ours in total, and I bet ours are far less in donations in total then your school.

If you google Holgerson and facilities you may find a link to plans to upgrade

Wut? You have a whole generation of kids now college-aged who watched Joey Harrington flounder for years.

But, Oregon (like Bama) has TWO NFL HOF QBs to brag about when only about 15 schools can brag.

Pac 12 leads the way with 6 of the 23 QBs.

Wow, did you really try to say Nike doesn't help Oregon more than other schools?

o they are going to happen and probably already are. i rememeber him saying they were good enough to be the best in the BE but would not cut it in the Big12 and he is right

RR was getting his way and the weight room now was his work, he got mad over lil pissy things like letting HS coaches in the game for free and stuff like that

I agree with the tickets for high school coach O'Brien doing it to mend fences with an important element in recruiting

Pac-12: Oregon, however USC is building a new CFB Complex, locker-room ect. And Cal is finishing a new Stadium/football complex too. Washington is building a whole new complex-renivating stadium too. Many PAC teams trying hard to build new/fancy to compete with Oregon.

SEC: My vote would be LSU. They have nice locker-rooms. However Bama has tons of player support and nice stuff too. AU are nice. I have not seen UF yet.

Big 12:OSU has the money-but their unies look crappy with crappy colors imo, Texas I have seen and is very wealthy, very new nice modern locker-rooms. Texas probably supports their Athletes the best and by far the richest school with Athletics in the Nation.

Big 10: Nebraska! They were the first school to have really fancy locker-rooms. All other schools(mine included)copied them. They support their players tons(spoil). Have not seen tOSU's locker-rooms, but tOSU spoils their players tons.

ACC: The U? No way. The school does not even own their own stadium. FSU should probably be top in Conference for this. This guide is not talking about rich boosters who pay players to party and such. The OP was about facilities and how much the school spoils or supports the players with fancy stuff around them.

the money used to close off that endzone and add box's should have gone to a brand new weight room imo at WVU

also anyone saying the U is nuts, they have an awful awful weight room
