Ok, 100% joking. Literally NONE of you non-quacks will care about or appreciate the history of the association between NIKE and Oregon. And I get it.
But we duckies love this stuff. And an infomercial like this one about our football program certainly can't hurt recruiting.
let me summarize. Phil Night ran track and was obsessed with running in a little state school in the pacific north west. He got a great idea to make shoes for runners just when jogging became a huge American fad. He then found that he could really make a bundle if he just had little brown kids make his crap and import those shoes from 3rd world countries instead of paying fellow Americans to make his crap. Now he's in his 80's and can't spend all his money and wants to buy a football championship for a school so remedial that he wouldn't let his own kids go to. Is that close? sc
