Dear Oregon: Vomit is not a primary color

I took a good, hard look at it again.

And I see a bunny.

 

I'm with you. I like Oregon's uniforms.

 

It's a schooner.

 

That's correct. He was killed in some kind of accident or something.

I'll join in as well. It's something different. I also enjoy traditional uniforms as well.

I think the Penn State white-out games are incredible.

 

Great, now I see the bunny and I can't see the trees.

 

I like it. As soon as you realize it's trees, it becomes a lot cooler.

BTW, just to correct a common perception, but Phil Knight is no longer Nike's CEO. He retired from that position, and now is the chairman of the board of directors.

Matt Parker (CEO) and Charlie Denson (President of Nike Brand) are the guys who make decisions like this.

 

Mark Parker.

 

Yup. Excuse me.

 

"Drink Your Ovaltine?" What a ripoff!

 

I dislike the constant changes in their football uniforms.

I think this is clever. It's unique, and helps give Oregon a basketball identity.

Why NOT?

But . . .

Did Matthew Knight even go to Oregon? What is his actual connection?

"Matthew Knight died at age 34 in a scuba diving accident in El Salvador, where he was working to raise funds for an orphanage."

 

I always liked Wyoming's basketball court - the stained brown look. Don't know if they still use it - it might have even included fake knot holes.

 

He's the late son of the university's biggest benefactor, which is connection enough.
