'17' TN ATH Tee Higgins (Clemson commit)

I see this kid likes the switch from Adidas to Nike. I tried to tell this board that matters. But the old school fans didn't believe me.

I know your right about this.... I just wish it wasn't about brand names choice when it comes to selecting a school. But I've heard the equipment is higher quality; so, I guess it is important. Maybe not at the top of the priority list, but still important.

The difference in quality between Nike and adidas is startling. The first place youll see it is the jerseys. Unlike the adidas ones, which stretch away from the body allowing players to be dragged down from behind, the Nike ones are form fitting.

Swain was saying the other day that the biggest difference will be in the cleats. He said the Adidas cleats hurt the players feet and there was only so much the equipment guys could do.

Truth. Adidas cleats are definitely inferior to Nike.

Then they were stupid. You weren't the only one saying this and its 100% true. That logo means more than the average fan could probably imagine.

100% agree. Adidas cleats suck compared to Nike.

I know it matters and am for anything that helps us, but I've always preferred Adidas personally over Nike. I welcome the change but am also a little disappointed
 
Personally I will riot if a 5* named Tee from near Knoxville chooses someone other than Tennessee.

Think he goes with the tool in the middle here?

Just made this poster I thought was pretty decent so I shared it with him.

I think the 2017 class will be the most important for us to establish consistency we want.

Would love to see an early commitment from this kid.. top recruit to land who is visiting this weekend, imo.

I told them this a while back. They wanted to argue me down. Our players were at a severe disadvantage on the field.

Adidas gear is just trash to me..... Have been trash for years when it comes to football cleats. I'm so glad we're a nike team. I'm waiting on the new gear to drop.

It was the same thing also when it came to baseball cleats. Adidas cleats were awful and hurt the bottom soles of the feet.
