Billionaire donates $165 million to...

[DiT]

Oklahoma State athletic program! He donated $70 million in 2003 as well. Obscene.

CNNSI article.

What? Even if it had THE best facilities in the world, would you go to Stillwater, OK if you are an elite athlete?

As a supposed self acclaimed Sooner fan I would have expected you to know that Barry Sanders wanted to go to OU and that his father wanted him to go to OU as well. Barry Switzer did not offer him a scholarship. Oklahoma State only offered him a shollarship at the last moment. Barry Sanders was far from a prize recruit coming out of high school. If Sanders were being recruited today he might be considered a three star runningback but more likely a two.

Is Vito for real???

If that is your definition of money going "directly to the University of Oregon athletic department", then I suppose you also think eating a tuna fish sandwich while jerking off to a picture of Jessica Alba is the same as directly eating her pussy.

he shoots
he scores!!!


looks like a sig for somebody

Ahhhhh, that was funny. I don't agree with your previous post but I'll give you a pass cause this was just so damn funny.

You mean the one in which he stated facts?

Wow.

No, really -- that money for U of O comes from Phil, not Nike...dumbass.

RACK Jay-btw. Funny stuff.

And tell you what Vito, why don't you take the late-run BART Richmond line, get off at Berkely, and start telling everyone you see how "soft" they are. You'll be fine...really.

Add Davis to schools that go by their city name. California has about a million of them.

If I did, I'm pretty sure those grenola eating fema-nazi's dykes will kick my ass. The males there (notice I didn't use the word men) would hold hands gather for a protest and then jerk each other off to the song "Its raining men". After that they would cuddle while complaining about those damn Republicans.

Depends on whether or not Tejas was in on him. If they were, he'd be a 4 1/2 to 5 star, depending on who you asked, and touted as the second coming of Cedric Benson... Otherwise, yeah, he's a 2 star guy all the way. Too small. No breakaway speed. No hands.

soooooo you're saying Barry Sanders is not an elite athlete that wanted to go to OSU?
as a self acclaimed member of the living you're a freaking moron;)

At the time he wasn't considerd elite. Hart Lee Dykes, on the other hand, was considered elite. As were his negotiation skills.

[DiT]

he may have not been considered elite but he obviously was.

[SunCoastSooner]

he may have not been considered elite but he obviously was.

Perceptiojn is reality on the field until proven otherwise.

He went on to prove the scouts wrong and was a great athelete. And the point of the reply still stands Barry didn't want to be in Stillwater he wanted to be in Norman... a thought that still makes me sad in my pants.

talk to more UC students.... ones here dont say they go to UCI they say they go to Irvine, those in Santa Cruz say they go to Santa Cruz instead of UC Santa Cruz, same with Santa Barbara.... I think UCLA may be the excpetion that rule

San Diego doesn't fit that rule either. Maybe it's because there's a UCSD, a USD and a SDSU.


BTW, I heard that sum maroon anonymously donated $100 million last year to Yale's school of music, and now they're not charging any tuition to their music students. Makes you wonder WTF happened to some peoples' priorities.
