9/5/2011: Seems like a good idea. Maybe Melinda Grier and Dave Frohnmayer will team up to bid for the contract:

There are actually some reasonable people at the DOJ who represent the interests of the State, not the University. So, if the UO contracts out legals services, they don’t have to worry about that conflict of interest and the providers of legal services will only be beholden to the UO and their interests.
