The University of Oregon is getting a $1 billion donation from Phil and Penny Knight to create the Knight College of Engineering. The donation will fund the construction of a third building on the university’s Knight Campus, costs to hire faculty and staff and operational expenses for the new college in “perpetuity,” Robert Guldberg, vice president and Knight Campus executive director, told reporters Wednesday, Sept. 23. The gift, which he said is spread out over 10 years, is the largest “given to a comprehensive public university,” according to an early-morning press release from the university. There will not be any duplication of engineering programs offered at Oregon State, and you can find the official Oregon Press Release right here. An article about it from Yahoo.com discloses more details, and a local paper offers more perspectives. This is a pretty stunning gift, that begins to move the destiny of the university behind Our Beloved Ducks in a direction none of us could have foreseen.

After OSU, Oregon needed every rep it could get. Plus there's the fact that Lanning generously offered run with 10 minute quarters in the second half... which was promptly rejected by PSU. But I suppose to be nice, Lanning could have pulled out some trick plays and punted on first or second down... you know, just to mix it up a bit. But I'm a big fan of Pop Warner football... for young kids.

For a backup QB, playing against an exceptionally weak and sub-par team, coming into the game in the second half when we were up by 49... I think Raiola performed well. But if the question is what does his performance in this game tell me about him, I'd have to say, very little. But his performance certainly was not discouraging. So, that's good.

USC's high-powered offense could cause issues for Oregon's defenseWeek 4 is here, and so is the Oregon Ducks' toughest defensive task yet. The Boise State Broncos presented a pro-style offense with an extensive running and play-action scheme. The Oklahoma State Cowboys operated out of the air-raid, slicing up the Ducks' defense through the air and on the ground. The USC Trojans do a little bit of both, combining pro-style running schemes with a wide-open, spread passing attack with the playmakers to produce one of the top offenses in college football through their first four games. Meanwhile, Oregon's defense has sputtered out of the gates, clearly not playing up to their potential leading to questions surrounding defensive coordinator Chris Hampton's ability to fill the departed Tosh Lupoi's shoes. That question remains as the Ducks head to LA to face the Trojans, and, while still early in the year, could lead to an extinguishment of questions, or much more speculation regarding the in-house hiring. It won't be an easy task in stopping this high-powered USC offense. We broke down the Trojans' offense, including answering whether or not Oregon is built to stop them. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/09/23/oregon-football-usc-offensive-preview/91899258007/

One could argue it's only a matter of time before salaries for all but 1st rounders are higher at the college level.

PSU Coach just confirmed this was the case. 10 minute quarters offer was rejected by him. He wanted his team to play the full game. Judging by the coldest post game handshake I've ever seen (he never broke stride), I do think he still didn't like that last score.

I saw Raiola play in the game he was injured in. Before he was injured the offense moved the ball. After he was injured they couldn't move the ball. For those that remember the Herbert/Burmaeister duo with the same light switch affect when Herbert was out. That significantly increased my respect for him. He can run an offense.

Im curious to see what Will Stein does this year at Kentucky vs what we do with what we are on paper.

The two positions were are absolutely LOADED with talent are at Wide Receiver and Runningback. BOTH were outside hires who were established position coaches, both are young but had track records of success before coming to Oregon. A'lique Terry on the offensive line was a grad assistant at Oregon who left for a position role else where and returned. I think we all have questions about Terry because on the one had we have this offensive line mess this year. However, he has also managed to put together a few Joe Moore award finalists at offensive line. There are some older guys as analysts on staff but the analysts tend not to stand on the sideline on game day. Again I'm not calling for anyone to be fired at this time but at the end of the season if the Ducks fail to make the playoff, get blown out and out coached in an important game, or just fail to reach the goal (which is a high goal of the National Championship). I do believe then these questions about Lanning's staff need to be answered by Lanning.
