Uncle Phil is a key to not only funds for athletics, but also for the buy-in- by student-athletes/recruitment (the cool changing uni, facilities, etc) but also more importantly the academic portion of the university, since I believe he also donates there. The result of rising tides of the university with improved athletics is also huge for OR buy-in, and I find it difficult to believe the rising tides view will ever be held by the majority of Cal and current administration.
Uncle Phil has also donated millions to biomedical eng and cancer research in the state, in addition to the law school and library. The eng program is a joint one with Oregon State. Needless to say, whatever Uncle Phil wants in the State of Oregon, Uncle Phil gets.
