Is Adidas being disrespectful towards Kentucky?

I noticed the Aggies were wearing the same "Heart Over Hype" shirts that Louisville wore when we played. I think some of the Adidas teams on our schedule are only wearing this shirt when playing Kentucky. If so, it's disrespectful to question the heart of the Wildcats and claim that Kentucky is all hype. A team doesn't get to 15-0 without heart. I think it's lame and bush-league for teams to break that shirt out against Kentucky. I don't expect anything better from Louisville, but I thought Texas A&M had more class.

I don't care for the shirt either, but I've seen it games not involving UK. It just makes you look silly in the handshake line when you lose.

My bad. I thought it was only being worn in games against UK. Thanks for the clarification. It does definitely change my thoughts to know that shirt is worn in games not involving UK.

Well, if teams aren't wearing that shirt for any other game, and ONLY when Kentucky comes to town to play them, it certainly would fall into the lame and bush-league class from my perspective, and how appropriate that they lost while wearing them, too!


As long as we keep beating teams pulling this kind of disrespectful, crappy stunt, I wouldn't mind teams wearing it every time.

Wouldn't it be awesome to add that to the long list of things we could look back on if we do go undefeated, all the doubting and negative nancies, all the endless clips where everyone says we wouldn't go undefeated, all the clips of teams wearing that shirt, and in the end, we go 40-0?

I could die happy at that point, forever happy in knowing we did the seemingly impossible with all that adversity and disrespect in our face.

This was my thought as well. Maybe Adidas' way of dissing Nike.

I usually stay out of these kinda situations, but just had to add the old cliche "he will get mad at the drop of a hat and he will drop the hat himself".
