The Oregon Ducks are about to see how much they can save, or earn, with Progressive Insurance.
On Tuesday, Progressive announced a partnership with 13 programs around the country to add on-field logos, starting this season. Oregon is one of the programs that will have logos on the field inside Autzen Stadium. The deal is set to begin this season.
Boise State, Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas State, Ole Miss, Purdue, SMU, Syracuse, Texas Tech, USC and Wake Forest will also have logos on their fields this season. The move will help inject more funding into athletic departments to support the changing economic landscape of the sport. No financial details about the agreement were disclosed.
Oregon has one of the most expensive rosters in the country in terms of NIL money. Many programs and conferences around the country are seeking corporate sponsorships to help with funding in the future to build competitive rosters.
For the fans, the partnership won't change the experience of watching the Ducks play on Saturdays. Yes, there will be logos on the field and more branding on the LED screens. However, it's a sign of how large Oregon's brand has become, as Progressive targets some of the biggest programs in the country for more national recognition.
