“It’s white collar-blue collar. it’s like, ‘oh, look how nice their facilities are!’ ..
“It seems like they get babied. They got some crazy stuff over there, and it’s neat to see all that stuff, but you don’t need all that fancy stuff to have a good, winning program. All you need is a pair of cleats, helmet, shoulder pads and great coaches. And I think that’s what we have (at OSU).”
Here are a couple of questions that come to mind:
• Does he have a point? Is Oregon white collar? Is Oregon State blue collar? Why?
• Do OSU football players represent just cleats, helmets, shoulder pads, & good coaching?
• How would the perception of the schools differ if a donor gave OSU $100 million dollars? Would they still be “blue collar”?
