"Casey-gate" now making Oregonian look bad, not Ducks

I think it's outstanding that Dave Frohnmayer and Pat Kilkenny of the University of Oregon are standing up to The Oregonian, and emphatically denying ever offering the baseball head coaching job to Oregon State's Pat Casey.

Any freshman journalism school student knows to check (and double check) their sources. This so-called, concocted(?) "well-placed" source that The Oregonian's Brian Meehan refers to is losing credibility by the minute. Bad reporting, Meehan... bad!

I whole-heartedly agree. That story was just straight garbage. It was just another Canzano-esque attempt to stir up controversy and make the Ducks look rich and canniving. Kilkenny is smarter and classier than a move like that. Duck fans shouldn't let it get them down, all of the hate is just a symptom of having, hands down, the best, most forward-thinking and successful athletic department in the NW.

Kilkenny was definitely an upgrade over Bill Moos. GO DUCKS!
