Knight's $100 million gift to bankroll Oregon athletics fund Associated Press Updated: August 21, 2007, 9:08 AM ET Comment Email Print EUGENE, Ore. -- The University of Oregon's plan to build a new basketball arena moved a giant step forward Monday when Nike co-founder Phil Knight, and his wife, Penny, pledged $100 million to the university, the largest philanthropic gift in school history. The money is not targeted specifically for an arena, university officials said. Rather, it will create the Oregon Athletics Legacy Fund, which will help support all athletic programs. But indirectly, officials said, the donation will boost the university's effort to replace aging McArthur Court with a new arena near the eastern edge of campus. "This extraordinary gift will set Oregon athletics on a course toward certain self sufficiency and create the flexibility and financial capacity for the university to move forward with the new athletic arena," Athletic Director Pat Kilkenny said. "Now we can roll up our sleeves and get to work on making the arena a reality." The university last year estimated it would take more than $200 million to pay for the arena once land costs are figured in. Fundraising for the project has been one of the top priorities for Kilkenny since he got the job earlier this year. Copyright 2007 by The Associated Press

Hurricanes In New Stadium Miami to move Hurricanes' football out of Orange Bowl for Dolphin Stadium in 2008 Miami to move Hurricanes' football out of Orange Bowl for Dolphin Stadium in 2008 By TIM REYNOLDS, AP Sports Writer August 21, 2007 CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) -- Miami will play home football games at Dolphin Stadium starting in 2008, leaving the historic but decaying Orange Bowl after seven decades. The university's trustees decided Tuesday to make the much-debated move, which could generate $2 million or more in extra revenue annually for the Hurricanes' athletic department. City officials unsuccessfully tried to keep Miami at the Orange Bowl by promising $206 million in upgrades. ADVERTISEMENT "This is a painful and sad decision," Miami president Donna Shalala said. The Hurricanes agreed to a 25-year lease with Dolphin Stadium. Miami first played at the Orange Bowl, about eight miles from its campus, in 1937. The Hurricanes won three national championship games on that field, had a NCAA-record 58-game home winning streak from 1985 through 1994 and have drawn more than 17 million fans there over the years. But the stadium's facade is rusting, upgrades are needed and the building lacks many amenities that modern stadiums have -- such as the luxury suites and video replay screens that helped lure Miami to the home of the Dolphins. "The move to the stadium and the superior facilities that it offers will greatly enhance our recruiting efforts," Miami coach Randy Shannon said. With the Hurricanes set to depart, the Orange Bowl will no longer have a primary tenant. The Dolphins moved to the facility first known as Joe Robbie Stadium in 1987, and the Orange Bowl -- one of college football's marquee and best-known bowl games -- moved to Dolphin Stadium in 1996. And that means the building's future is in serious doubt. The site has been mentioned as a possible new home for the Florida Marlins, or the stadium could simply be knocked down. Miami's first game in Dolphin Stadium is scheduled for Aug. 30, 2008, against North Texas, but Hurricanes athletic director Paul Dee said the school is negotiating to bring a different opponent in for that date. Miami has won nearly 70 percent of its games at the Orange Bowl, a place where opponents routinely acknowledged feeling intimidated by the crowds and game-time atmosphere. "It got to be very tough to hear and tough to communicate down there. That's what made it difficult to play in," said Florida State coach Bobby Bowden, who brought his Seminoles to the building nearly two dozen times over the years. The Orange Bowl opened in 1937 and has hosted Super Bowls, a famous speech by President John F. Kennedy to Cuban exiles after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, concerts, boxing and even Olympic soccer matches in 1996. Many of the university's existing Orange Bowl traditions -- including the smoke-filled tunnel for pregame introductions and the Miami ring of honor -- will be moved to Dolphin Stadium, which is undergoing $300 million worth of expansion and renovations. "We look forward to a wonderful partnership that continues the storied football legacy of UM here in their new home," Dolphin Stadium owner Wayne Huizenga said. The city's stadium refurbishment plan was met with skepticism by some within the university, since much of the needed money would have to come from grants and tax credits that haven't been secured. Still, some fans continued lobbying until the end, with more than 4,000 signing an online petition in recent weeks imploring the university to stay put, and others organizing small rallies in hope of getting trustees to change their mind. "The city of Miami made an extraordinary effort to identify funds and design a renovation," Shalala said. "But in the end, it wasn't enough." Miami's lease at the Orange Bowl runs past 2008, but the school will be able to move next fall -- meaning the last scheduled game for the Hurricanes at the facility will be Nov. 10 against Virginia.
