Actually, 80 Devil, Oregon has also cut wrestling this year. They are adding baseball in 2009 so Phil Knight can provide some kind of wild uniform, but it is Phil Knight doing it as he is subsidizing the program. They are paying the coach they hired from Fullerton $400K, so there goes baseball coaching salaries. He has a Nike shoe contract worth over $200K.
