Oregon collapse is good news.
Oregon, equipped with mega bucks, state of the art meds, world class facilities, the athletes vote to leave in mass.
Why
It is the stink of corporate corruption, and greed that permutates the entire Oregon scene. And Eugene and Portland are not the quaint lovely cities of decades ago, where you could escape the dodgy big cities of California and what not. Today the State offers little in the way of a wholesome crime free lifestyle.
Back in the day, I choose Eugene and the U of O as the best choice of Pac-10 schools, as a wholesome traditional environment, with it was, but the Oregon of today is basically the complete opposite. The only plus is cash possibilities, which I might take if good enough.
You’ve never run in college if you think there are “meds” provided. That’s just ludicrous. You think that someone just comes in he locker room and lines you up for “meds”. How do you think that would work in xc? Everyone gets thyroxine and a shot of epo? What about in track? You just line 50 people up and each gets a brown bag with their “meds”?
At that, you’re poorly educated on the matter if you think u of o was “traditional and wholesome back in the day”.
This board is rife with armchair quarterbacks making up scenarios in their head based on what they’ve read. Every bit of your statement is a good example of that very thing.
