MEGA New Miami Adidas Ultraboost🔥 - The Shoe and Nike/Adidas Thread.

My frame isn’t built for high tops

I'm not a big fan of the older high-tops of yesteryear that require a couple of hours to lace and unlace. I like Jordan 1 lows and mids.

You apparently have difficulty reading and processing.

On top of their sponsorship deal they gave an additional $3 million for the indoor facility. And you are factually wrong, we did not put their logo "everywhere". There is one Adidas logo in the entire facility. If you want to argue about that, then I can post the pictures I just took. My comment simply stated that if their offer is at the top of the offers we are not going to just bail because certain fans want a check mark on our jerseys.

Adidas has been a good partner to UM and when Nike wouldn't even supply us with new uniforms for every game Adidas came in and made us their highest paid school. I want whichever brand pays us more and treats us better, I don't care.

You don’t care but recruits do care. Miami has lost out on a few recruits because they aren’t a Nike school. Teenagers and young adults care about these things.

Majority of the fan base hates Adidas as well

Merchandise sales would be a lot higher if we were a Nike school

I can't give this post enough 100's.

Absolute truth.

Bro, I just don’t know why ppl don’t understand the simple equation of cause & effect.

Like there’s a couple in this fan base that r stubborn af.

Here’s an article from 2017 that has come to full fruition some 8 yrs later:

Nike Dominates College Football, and it Shows No Signs of Ever Letting Up

For years Nike has completely dominated the college football landscape.

This is something I discussed w/ @LeedsCane on a podcast, as to why so many top kids attend Nike branded schools

By the numbers: Once Nike gets a five-star college recruit, he's unlikely to ever leave

To companies like Nike and Adidas, every basketball player is a walking commercial. And they hope the athletes wearing their gear will become stars.

And UTSA, a long time Adidas brand just bounced to Nike. I told everyone Nike had vengeance on their mind. They r becoming more & more entrenched as the grass roots level, with their influence growing. We’ve lost a ton of recruits b/c of this, 7 off the top of my head in the past 3 cycles.

Some people can’t see the bigger picture. They only look at things from their pov. It’s obvious as **** Miami need to go back to Nike. Mario was at Oregon and he saw first hand how Nike works. And I believe that works to our favor.

Hopefully DRad is long gone before those negotiations start

in fairness, he did negotiate this deal. Also, as me & @TheOriginalCane have been preaching, notice their royalty deal.

The Clemson & Nike Partnership

clemsontigers.com

Per a fiscal report, Clemson generated $21.1m in sponsorship revenue, Nike being their biggest sponsor which includes all Clemson x Nike branding across all platforms either e-commerce or bricks & mortar. $5.8/yr in cash equipment + 14% royalties = they are making more $$$ than our apparel contract w Adidas which is cash & apparel only.

Would he be on board with leaving Adidas?
