adidas is not playing around

[Russ Wood]

The deal is one of the 10 most valuable in college athletics — worth slightly more annually than the 11-year, $128-million deal adidas gave Nebraska in 2017 — and makes the Huskies the premier program for Adidas on the West Coast.

Why would the NCAA allow these things to happen?

 

[soundcrib]

Meh, they still gave our baseball team rec league uniforms.

 

[G- RUnit]

The money is nice and grateful but... our uniforms have been meh for all sports. Year 2 time for Adidas to up
their game.

Adidas is great at providing money but their gear sucks

That’s almost as much as Rutgers gets from Adidas if you move the decimal point to the left a couple spots! [eyeroll]

Thought this would be about Kansas and N.C. Star being brought into the fbi crosshairs

I actually think our baseball uniforms rock this year, especially the pinstripe ones and the red top ones. Basketball uniforms were also great.

How much of that money is earmarked to pay recruits?

Wonder if they are forced to use that awful Rutgers number font?

Kids on the lax team love it.

Yup, we pretty much got a pack of used chewing gum compared to that contract. Good job BOG and President on those illustrious AD hires and devaluing athletics. That one really paid off for ya.

Meanwhile, as of 3 days ago, KU & adidas still plan to sign a 12-year, $191 million extension to their current deal.
