I'm in the minority I know but I like adidas much better than Nike (their gear is uncomfortable to me)

Nike is all bling in my experience. Adidas performs way way better.

But name brand is what matters to high school kids, and I'm sure the D1 versions of Nike perform far better than the stuff we nobodies get at the retail store. So I'd rather see us have Nike.

Yes you are because brand isn't worth anything anymore now that money is involved

Correct, that NIL check is all the athletes worry about now. They would wear Buster Brown for $50,000 ...

The Nike gear is near impossible to get. Impossible, literally. I can recant hours searching, even driving to UT Bookstore. There is/was NUTHING. Once the crap merchanise we have access too is gone, its gone. Literally worst collegiate vendor.

But they make best stuff: So, no on Adidas.

Dustin Johnson played Golf at a high level for a few years then hooked up with Wayne Gretzky's daughter and hasn't been the same since...

Neat fact….got married at BlackBerry Farms in Walland.

Cowboys playing normal Thanksgiving Day game vs Chiefs and now this upcoming season they're playing on Christmas Day vs Commanders...

Good! Rumor was the Bears were looking at that Christmas Day rematch. Putting them on the first Monday Night against the Vikings was trialbyfiery enough.

Edit: for reasons unknown, the URL I'm posting keeps linking to "Tennessee Road" by jelly roll and company, I have no clue what's going on

Apologies, because I have never posted a link. I hope I did it correctly.

I remember his recruitment and the drama behind it. I saw this interview with Jason Kelce and about died laughing

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Would love to see the Sanders interview

 

[Enki_Amenra]

like this move

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Pantone 136

This link works for my wife. Generally speaking, she knows more than me

Actually have Leonard Little #1 jersey

I prefer Adidas over Nike!

They never got our colors right

 

[Ten_Titans]

Am I missing something? Why the insult?

24.5 inch vertical leap.

That's kinda like being a wide receiver and running a 4.85 at the combine. That 500 lb lineman that played at Florida had a 25 inch vertical.

Looks like Cowboys visiting the Bears in Week 3... Could have a little wager here...

 

[Ten_Titans]

This will cost us recruits! Am I wrong?

That would have been a dumb reason to factor in before NIL. That is downright next-level stupid factor in the NIL era.

People, including recruits, will say whatever. I doubt it will be a deciding factor for anybody.

More concerning is that every alternate jersey Adidas has ever tried to make for us or anyone else has looked cheap and ugly as hell.

We need to Schinano Sunday the Adidas deal, or throw a golf ball and mustard bottle on the field, or something. We cant go back to adidas, they are dog

I won't buy anything with Nike on it

I do like Adidas though---hope UT can make it happen again

 

[JCVol00]

I do have to admit tho, seeing the pic of the team celebrating the USCjr win in ‘13 with the Adidas made me nostalgic so im rewatching that game lol

That was a great one. I remember being in my apartment in Boulder and just letting out a huge scream when Palardy’s FG went through. It had been years since we’d beaten a ranked team. That was a good South Carolina team, too. Finished ranked #4.

 

[Devo182]

100% don't care about apparel, personally. Don't buy regardless.

But I suspect Nike is still much more popular with recruits. That's what matters.

Welp, the Celtics go down 3-1 to New York and blew another double digit lead in the 2nd half. Watching Rick "The Boston Massacre" Pitino celebrate with New York fans is extra annoying.

Tatum spent most of the night rolling around on the court like a soccer player or LeBron James. He finally went out for good with what looked to be an Achilles tear or something with his ankle. (The last I saw of him, they were pushing him around in the bowels of MSG in a wheelchair. )


*New avi change. Larry deserves better

*I called that one. I knew I should have stayed in medical school.

I like the fit of adidas clothing better than Nike but our Nike uniforms are 1000 times better looking than the adidas ones.
