I was curious about that as well. It looks like his son, Travis Knight, is on the Nike BOD. Also a former rapper known as "Chilly Tee."
I assume Phil will leave a huge chunk of change to Oregon athletics, but I find it hard to believe that Oregon will still be used as Nike's beta testing subject like they are today.

Phil throws around $100 million like it is candy, worth more than $60 billion. I imagine whatever trust Phil leaves the cash in would be less aggressively supportive of anything than Phil.
....BUt Oregon in the Big 12 would better enable their pipeline of TexASS Hs football players, maybe Oregon really takes off now that they will be in the Big 12....

Nike has quite a few execs who were Ducks. Tinker Hatfield and so forth.

Wow, looked up that kid's wikipedia. He must be hated by everyone at every company Phil Knight has anything to do with.
