Nike chairman, Phil Knight has just agreed to gift 105 Million Dollars to Stanford University to build a business graduate school campus and some money to endow some faculty positions. Knight was an undergrad at the University of Oregon and went to grad school at Stanford. The University of Oregon is trying to get Knight to donate approximate $60 million to build a new basketball arena and has not had much success because of alleged bad feelings between Knight and Oregon Athletic Director Bill Moos. Some have said Knight will not donated the money to the Ducks until Bill Moos is gone. Is Phil Knight sending a message to Bill Moos and Oregon?
