Move it along, nothing to see here.

1/3/2010: Wondering who is behind those new student apartments next to the arena? Looks like one of the investors is Russell Kilkenny, former UO Athletic Director Pat Kilkenny‘s brother. The financing is through a San Diego bank that supports Pat’s Lucky Duck Foundation, I wonder if he is also involved. UO VP for students Paul Shang contracted to use the 1410 Orchard Street building, called Courtside, to house overflow freshmen. Meanwhile, Pat Kilkenny is still working for the UO athletic department – just enough FTE to be eligible for the state benefits package. Move it along people, no conflict of interest here.
