Dr. Forrest “Phog” Allen “Beware of the Phog” this phrase is commonly seen throughout the University of Kansas, especially on the days of home basketball games prominently in Allen Field House. The phrase was established when the new field house was built and named after one of the most influential coaches of KU basketball history, Dr. Forrest “Phog” Allen. Allen was not only influential then as a coach and a leader of the community, but also today he influences the lives of students at the University of Kansas.

During deliberations to determine if there was enough evidence to continue with the trial, Schlichtmann had a second opportunity to accept a $20 million offer from Beatrice Foods, again non market forces (his emotions) influenced his decision to decline the offer. In the end Schlichtmann settles for $8 million after much debate with his partners, who had competing interests. Schlichtmann’s partners wanted to make sure they could settle for enough to cover their expenses, otherwise they would lose all of their assets. Schlichtmann want more than the $8 million but ultimately accepted it because of the pressures he faced from his partners.

To be taking on a challenging issue that literally involved life and death, they should have been concerned about making a strong team right from the start. Sadly, their selection process was poorly done, with much focus on gaining popularity than concern for the people who chose to climb. For example, Dough Hansen who had previous unsuccessful attempt with Hall expressed reluctance to return. “However Hall lobbied him personally, offering Hansen a discounted fee for the expedition” (Roberto & Carioggia, 2003). Hall apparently felt bad for not being able to guide Hansen successfully to the summit and wanted to prove his capability and credibility, hence offering the expedition at a discounted rate.
