[QUOTE="JDjacket, post: 386723, member: 1091"] I actually did some digging into this last year because I was reading about Phil Knight. From what I gathered he does donate to both schools, but his donations to Oregon are directly tied to the athletics program while his massive donations to Stanford are earmarked for Academics and the business school. Maybe he gives general donations that are still a lot to athletics, but his major donations are to Academics. I thought that has to suck for a fan of Stanford sports that the same rich guy building Oregon athletics isn't building yours. I guess by getting donations for academics, stanford can shift more money to athletics if they want, so in a way he's still helping. [/QUOTE]
