Source at Oregon confirms that University of Oregon has a contract extension offer in front of Mario Cristobal.

“It’s aggressive and in line with what we’ve seen this week,” per source.
Brian Kelly and Lincoln Riley dollars, I’m told.

What do you want to bet Cristobal’s raise rivals all of the faculty put together.
What does that say about the revealed preferences of the UO trustees who basically are supposed to oversee and sign off on all of this?
In Thursday’s Chronicle, this very topic – except they used a different set of names… (https://www.chronicle.com/article/colleges-are-paying-big-bucks-for-coaches-heres-what-else-they-couldve-spent-the-money-on
What with all this exciting Duck crap, I wonder how Prez Schill and our Board of Trustees manage to find the time to do their due diligence for the academic side of the university.
If I were Phil Knight I would transfer my pledge to OSU to finish their plans for RESER stadium. It would be a game changing gift and support a coach who bleeds Orange.
Unconfirmed, but I like to chum the waters…

Standard retention raise in CAS is 10 percent at most.
We had faculty leave in the last three years after being offered no retention counter-offer because “we’re not doing that, there’s no money.” So 10% would be downright generous in comparison.
Is anyone here buying the “there’s no money” line? It doesn’t seem credible to me, but I’m happy to listen to the counter-argument.
I don’t think anyone does, especially not this bumper year, but that’s always the go-to. When shown that there is money, the response is usually “but that’s *different* money.” Accounting: the last refuge of auditors and scoundrels alike.
I dislike the practice of doing these career moves before the end of the college season. Not an expert, but seems like it can’t be good for the student-athletes as they enter their final games and try to get their final college career stats. As a couch potato fan (and otherwise serious UO community member), I’d rather enjoy the end of the season without knowing my coaching staff is completely distracted.
Has any team done well once their coaching staff is known to be moving on?

If I were one of the players I might suggest a boycott of this upcoming bowl. My condition to play would be that all university proceeds are equally distributed to the players and student managers. They can each sign a single t-shirt or release a non-Phil-endorsed NFT to keep on the right side of the NIL rules.
The board is aggressive in all the wrong ways:

Well, the disembodied heads are a nice aesthetic touch.
