Has anyone heard if Oregon took the half-share after all?

Think I found the answer. $40 million, full member in six years. Seems like maybe Oregon did some quick negotiating this morning.

Looks like it'll be closer to $30M a year with $1M raises every year. Big difference between everyone else but Oregon can live with that for 6 years.

that's pretty weak if true

OSU, WSU, Cal & Stanford are officially lost at sea.

But with all the other distributions they'll be getting, it sounds like they'll wind up with $45-50M a year compared to everyone else's $60-75M.

Still much better than the apple deal

This may sound strange, but I feel really awful about that. I want Oregon to succeed obviously, but I feel really bad about leaving the smaller schools behind.

I don’t care who you are, this is a positive development for UO. No more Gilmore doing our games, openly rooting against UO

No more Pac-12 refs to screw us over. Dont forget about that one too!

I’m struggling with it too, if it were Washington I’d be laughing, but just isn’t the same feelings about OSU and Wazzu

I saw $50 mill for 10 years. 40 + 10 of future shares.

Looks like Autzen will be getting some renovations soon.

Same. Oh well, probably find out soon. They did say average $50 million in the presser.

Not really. Oregon st brought this on themselves. They had 100 years to do something better, and just continued to run the program as small time. UO, even before Phil got involved, was working hard to improve money so they could change the future outlook. Now we just need to hope the rumor of the expansion is true, and Autzen will be rocking. I’m guessing BIG fans will travel 5x better than any pac fans. It will be lots of fun to have 65-70 k at Autzen, with a huge section of Ohio st fans.

This is not the college football landscape that anyone wanted or expected. That said, it's a new world and I'll try to enjoy it.

I have no sympathy for the Beavs. The war is over and we won. Good riddance and LOL. As far as Stanford and Cal, do you think they'll feel more superior when they're in a conference with Fresno State and San Jose State, or less? Maybe they'll just blow up the entire athletic department and join Harvey Mudd and Claremont McKenna for intramurals.

This is exactly why Washington is our rival and OSU is our little brother.
