I don't care what anyone says TJ is worth every penny we pay him and then some. What he accomplishes is incredible. And the pizza man needs to stay away from our athletics and TJ.

The danger of the pointy headed, socialist, academic elite is....they see that money, and WANT it so they can do "good" with it.

You know. Income distribution. "Fairness".

Some on here may be conflicted with this if/when it hits their sports team of interest.

I know some of you hate this, but I hope we get some new bad a%^ flashy uniforms. Maybe all black with a matte black helmet and red facemask.

I wasn't going that route. Not everything has to be politics.

Quite astsute.....it does not have to be.....but it is naive to think it is not. We do not have to like it....but it is what it is.....and one has to be self aware to survive and thrive in today's world. And know who and what is your enemy. Sun Tzu.

I'm an Asics guy, but still a good deal.

Adidas has already shown us love by putting us in their new ad campaign. Now they are showing us the money, which can only benefit our program. I never got why everyone thought Nike was so great anyway. I mean besides Jordan's what do they have? They got the deal with the NFL and what have they done with it? Or even when they do flip a school the basically just keep the same uniform design and put their logo on it.

Yeah, I don't really like it.

But they are paying a lot of money to dress us. It is what it is.
