1:57	[Comment From Guest Guest: ] How much longer does our contract with Adidas have on it and is there any chance we go with another company when it does run out? <TBODY> </TBODY> Friday August 16, 2013 1:57 Guest

1:58	Scott Stricklin: Current contract runs through this season. Adidas has been a great partner for MSU, going above and beyond what is contractually obligated.

Sounds like Strick is happy with Adidas. No point wishing for something else.

 

[hatfieldms]

To be that is about what I would expect from that question

I wouldn't think he would say anything negative about them in a public setting like that

 

[The Peeper]

Maybe above and beyond with quantities, meals, trips, etc but certainly not in design quality........

 

[BigMotherTucker]

I would agree with that... Its the above and beyond comment that im keying on.

I'm happy with Adidas. Since Mullen's first year here, the uniforms have gone up in quality significantly year to year. As long as they keep rolling out new uniform designs on a yearly basis ill be completely content.

For real ?

 

[KurtRambis4]

I've

never been that big on fashion and such, so I've never really had a problem with adidas. Quite frankly, I always find the threads where people complain about the "designs" sort of silly. To each his/her own, I guess.

+1 with a caveat: I do prefer that we stay with traditional school colors. Otherwise, I don't have the necessary discerning eye to dislike uniforms a lot. Old. I know.

I would surmise that you are an exception to the majority of the MSU fan base. I don't think most of the fans are satisfied with the Adidas designs, but I could be mistaken.

 

[Snog]

You are not mistaken.

Other than the current football uniforms, what do people have a problem with? The football uniforms the first 3 years looked great and the basketball & baseball uniforms look great. I agree that the current football uniforms look awful, but other than that I'm ok with Addidas.

 

[aerodawg.sixpack]

What? You remember beyond one negative thing? Adidas has been good. They need to try a little harder to make us different from Texas A&M. Just let them have the stripe and leave it off our stuff and I would be happy.

 

[uptowndawg]

I have a problem with them trying to get too cute at times

The maroon/purple astro's jerseys that we thankfully only warmed up with in baseball is the most glaring offense.

im assuming this is the definition of above and beyond...

and yes, that is above and beyond....in a bad way though..

 

[BigMotherTucker]

I liked our first gen adidas unis just fine. I don't care for the current look, but that's not the deal breaker for me. I don't like that we're treated like second hand citizens by them. Plus, our contract w/ them is weak. If strick stays w/ them then we need more money, new and unique unis every 4 years, and maybe a uni hype video produced by Adidas for each reveal. I'm not asking for much.

 

[NCDawg.sixpack]

It would be nice too if the helmet maroon color matched the jersey maroon color.

 

[Cow College]

The baseball heresies were a fail across the board but we were not required to wear them. They were a fail for every other team also. The stripes suck too however the quality I clothing the fans buy is much much better and they sell the shot out of it. That is what it is going to boil down too

 

[godlluB]

The full-out pinstripe baseball unis were awesome. Not sure who was responsible for that, but those are the best looking MSU uniforms for any sport, bar none, in the 20 years that I've been a Bulldog.

That said, Adidas has sucked otherwise.

 

[Heawww]

Take the ribbon off the helmet and jersey and they are just fine. That ribbon, and specifically the end of it, is ******* awful.

 

[Son of 34]

So, to those that said they don't like Adidas, which company would you prefer we switch to? We would be back seat at Nike as far as the amount of time they give us goes and under armour is garbage in my opinion. Adidas is our best option.

Or we could go back to Russell.***
