Re: Adidas

[ssimpson]

Correct me if I am wrong but OJ and Bill are with Adidas camp guy - that
could have something to do with it.

Also, I don't think UC is as marketable as it was a few years.  Yes, Big
East blah, blah, blah.  We, for the first time in a while, didn't
participate in a bowl game or the NCAA tournament.

Does it really matter to you that we don't have the jumpman?  If so I
think you are going to have to get over it.  Huggins brought the jumpman
to UC and it left with him.  Give Adidas a chance.  They are willing to
support us so I will support them.  

I for one pull for the school logo not for the sponsorship logo.

> From what I heard Nike didn't even bid the Jordan line (Jumpman) to
UC, only a Nike brand. Personally I have no problem with the Adidas
line, as there aren't as many schools overall with their company
allowing for UC to get more promotion. As far as the shoe's go, 8
years makes a huge difference.

I look forward to seeing the new design...

Being one of the few Jordan schools helped us stand out. Now we are
signed with a shoe company that specializes in soccer shoes and didnt
start making bball shoes until the late 90's.My college team (prior to
transfer to UC) had adidas one year (1998) and 3 guys ended up with
stress fracures in their feet. Team Dr.s blamed the shoes.  New C-Paw
sucks, new sponsor sucks. Looks like I am done buying UC clothes.
