Adidas will design whatever we want folks. If you don't like our look, blame the AD, not Adidas.

I think its more of a not being able to design a better look that UT could say "Hey, that's undeniable" pretty sure were limited to what we chose from.

I don't care who we use. But as its been stated so many more people would like something different

the techfit jersey had been in the NFL for a few years already so I'm not sure how they're behind

are you ok with less money ($1 million at least), less attention and 2nd tier status just to get Nike? The move would also hurt other sports at UT but I guess that doesn't matter to you either

Until we start winning championships we are 2nd tier status

UT would be fine without Adidas, I promise. I told you until we win, we are 2nd tier. What sports? I don't know how we could be hurt by leaving Adidas. Nike def rules basketball

so you're fine with a move that would cost the AD money, control and prestige just to add a swoosh to the jersey? Pretty simple question

you did post that but it doesn't mean squat. Nike is the only one that views us that way

as has been stated before, the smaller sports would definitely be hurt in a move to Nike

If you want to stick with tradition, stick with Adidas. Some of the most traditional schools wear adidas (Michigan, Notre Dame, Nebraska, and of course Tennessee)

UT has deep pockets and we obviously have money to blow. UT is a football school. And it does mean something. Winning is everything. And until were ranked and knocking heads at the top we are 2nd tier.

Traditions won't have to change. We will still be UT, still sing Rocky Top, run through the T, vol walk and heres the great thing. Be orange. Y'all act like were asking to change the school colors and leave state

Why do people care about uniforms as long as they're orange and white?

I guess I'm the only that doesn't analyze the uniforms during the game.

That's the point. Adidas gives us the choice. With Nike, they would show us the product and give it to us with or without approval because that's what was in the Nike contract offer. The only way Tennessee will ever wear Nike is if they offer more money than Adidas and treat us like Penn State and Bama as far as the look goes. It's been stated several times that Nike has yet to offer either and that's why we won't switch. Adidas treats us better than Nike wants to.

I also read I a few post a lot of our fans dislike the new Adidas Tech Fit.... They are a lot more sleek, tight fit (not hanging like they are to big), and more comfortable on the players how can u say u don't like em. They look quiet up to date imo. A lot of our older fans hate change PERIOD. That's not a true fan.

Agreed. I like them a lot! I think they look much much better than the old jerseys.
