The PKI Trophy

[CL82]

Worst trophy of all time...

Mmm, we’ll maybe the second worst…

I think it's pretty nice. Understated and clean. Won't take away from the large number of National Championship trophies we have to display as well

Agreed. On closer examination, it indicates that the most important ornament in the trophy is Phil Knight's signature on a piece of wood to suggest renewable resource commitment. While overconsumption of wood does not help Climate Change, this one is a very small piece, hence the rationale for using it? I am not sure whether it is a PR move to improve their image as an environmentally sensitive company.

I am tempted to raise my eyebrow re: what this choice might mean.....

For what it represents, by all means, add it to the trophy displays.....which goes well beyond the 11 NCs:......regular season conference championships, conference tournament championships and in-season tournament championships before this one.

Speaking of the PKI, are there not any hoop fans in Oregon? What a poor showing.

Looks like woodchuck fodder. Is Walton still available?

All the kids got a copy of Shoe Dog

It’s honestly an incredible book — probably one of the best business biographies I’ve ever read. The kids would do well to read it.

Was it even made from sustainably harvested wood? SMH

Be even worse to find out its made of chipboard.

What difference does it make what a damned trophy looks like? It's knowing that you finished #1 that counts. Many of my soccer clubs won prestigious tournaments throughout the USA and some of those trophies were no better than the participation awards that kids receive these days. UConn will always be the champion of their division of the PK 2022

Your wrong. Trophy aesthetics are EVERYTHING!
