Quack Fix: Wiley to transfer, men's golf team wins U.S. Intercollegiate

I agree on all accounts. Sad to see it not work out for a local kid, but it’s hard to fault him at all given how he disappeared from the game plan this year.

I was talking to my mom about him last night, and I said, without looking at anything “He’s transfering you know…”

apparently I have ESP, or I have the ability to make the UO athletic department do whatever I please…

I’m telling you. Those girls are stacked!

I posted this in yesterday’s Quack Fix too, but on Monday, Gorby updated the blog about Wolf, and it seems as if Lil’ Gorby has broken his right femur (and possibly his left), which makes the doctors think that he does, in fact, have OI. All the more reason to support this great cause.

Keep the Flude family in your thoughts and prayers…

I would love for someone to outbid me (not that I don’t want the items but I’d rather the charity make more $).

who is the library named after? And the law school? And did yo know that he endows 25 professorships?

Yes, I want the University to be the best it can be in all respects. People ARE donating money to the academic portion of the University. In the last decade, Lillis was built. The new Education school was built. The art museum was finally renovated and reopened. McKenzie Hall was completely renovated (granted, we had to pay most of that money back because it turned out that Grayson was a crook). The living/learning center was built. All of this was possible due to donations to the academic portion of the University.

I’m not going to pretend there aren’t problems. To say the dorms are crumbling is an overstatement. That would mean that they are unsafe. What they are is small, cramped, dingy, and out of date. The UO realizes this, and the next big project for the University is a $450 million dollar overhaul of the UO dormitories. So that problem will be addressed in the near future.

Bottom line, the donors have money, they choose where they want to spend it. For some, they are simply not interested in donating to the academic portion of the University. For others, they donate there as well, though it may not garner as much publicity. Most donors donate ONLY to the academic side. But the bottom line is its their money. They don’t have to give the UO any of it. And I’m no to look a gift horse in the mouth.

And, trust me, having good sports teams will instill more pride in the University and increase gifts to the academic side. I’m tired of people thinking that the two are mutually exclusive.

Link is fine, not ok to post full-text of subscription-only articles.

Post the whole thang son!

Not because he turned Oregon down and not because he’s a bad fit, I like him alot, but because 3 million dollars! I have to believe this is bull. I thought Anderson would’ve been a good fit and he runs an entertaining system (40 minutes of hell is awesome to watch), but that much money is ridiculous for him. Then again, he’s making 1.5 at Mizzou right now, so there’s that.

Sources in Eugene report that this afternoon PK called Axemen23 to inquire about the open coaching position. Shortly after that his mom raised his allowance to $12 per week and he has taken his name out of consideration for the job.

Ugh. As someone that works close to that industry, and with those kind of departments, they are far from fair. I understand their purpose for the audit, but the watchdog groups like the one that are putting this out are not interested in fairness, they want companies that match their ideology to get the money.

Make UO look as corrupt and hopeless as possible.

because I’m currently watching Out Cold.
