It was good for Michael Jordan, Jeter, Nadal, and Neymar. They're pretty cool.

How many more years is our program tied to the inferior Adidas brand? Their designs are lacking. Politics aside, Nike is far cooler than Adidas could ever dream of being. It's like Walmart vs Dillards in my opinion. I prefer Nike stuff all day long as an athlete.
As an athlete?

How bout as a common-sense American?

Nike went woke, and isn't good for anyone anymore. Do you personally benefit from the contract, or the sale of Nike goods? You should disclose that.

This again? Adidas is what every school wore before Nike started paying them to switch.

How 'bout a thread on the real shame of the department... Pepsi products?
I was there when they carted off the coca-cola vending machines…
So just Mr Pibb, 7-UP, and Fanta, eh?
Pepsi products which Mr. Pibb and Fanta are not (Coca-Cola formulas.). 7-up is bottled internationally now by Pepsi but formula is owned by Keurig-Dr Pepper.

Fanta was created by Coca-Cola Deutschland and was widely available in Indonesia when I lived there in early teens. Probably due to Dutch influence there.

If A&M does ever switch to woke Nike, just please don't put the Jordan brand logo on the football uniforms!!!

Looks so stupid to have a basketball based logo on anything other than a basketball uniform!!!

When Sumlin was here, we had lots of different & sometimes Flashy Uniforms.

It's NOT Adidas. It's the Coaching Staff Decision.
And Nike is all about Names and Flash and Promotion. Their Products are inferior.

Thanks for the articles. Sounds like A&M is a premier Adidas asset because they need the Texas market and Nike has tu, so Adidas goes above & beyond to keep A&M happy.

I get it, but as an older gentleman who grew-up with Nike, I still like Nike better, but my younger son-in-law disagrees.

And yes, when I was younger I was asked to be in the Pepsi challenge commercial, but when they found out I could tell the difference between Pepsi and Coke before tasting, just by the smell, I was cut from the commercial. (Corpus Christi Sunrise mall 1982 or 1983, can't remember… LOL). Pepsi not only tastes bad, it stinks!

Pepsi products, like Apple products, are for communists.

Growing up, I wore Nike for years. Started playing soccer and converted to Adidas. Funny cuz my two fav teams (Huskers and Ags) are Adidas schools.

Adidas is for euro trash and soccer goons. There's a reason only a handful of colleges use them and the nfl and mlb do not.

Nike is all over trying to get young boys to mutilate their genitalia to become "trans".

But sure, support them all you want.

With the possible exception of the alphafly and vaporfly, Adidas surprisingly makes much better running shoes.

Adi das created a global co, nike is mainly in the US.

Exact same stuff made in the same 3rd world country.

Friend of mine at Walmart once told me they sourced their Walmart athletic wear same place as Nike!

Only difference is the brand bro, hate to break it to you!!!


Adidas is a global company and Nike is mainly the US? Try again. Nike revenue is $45 Billion and Adidas revenue is $25 Billion. Nike has about 1/2 their revenue in the US while Adidas is about 1/4, but Nike still has more non US revenue than Adidas.

I don't care who our apparel sponsor is. I assume it just goes to the highest bidder. However, why say something that simply isn't accurate.



Only 2 edits? LOL, I never said anything about mkt cap and you proved what I said, thx - nike has 1/2 their rev from the US and Adidas has only a 1/4 hmmmmmmm does that mean that one is more us heavy and one is not????? DING DING DING - yes I think so. Thx professor. Try not to skip reading and comp next time!!!! Reagrdless, like I said, it's the same stuff - just a different logo.

And do you really think that the brand of shoes the teams were wearing affected the outcome of the games? It seems more likely to me that Nike has put their money into most of the best/biggest programs while Adidas is something of a niche brand (when it comes to paying schools to wear their sh**).

Year in year out, Nike starts the season affiliated with most of the schools who are going to compete for a national championship.

With our luck we'd switch to Nike and they'd put that dumbass jumpman basketball logo on a football uniform. So stupid.

And yet Nike makes more money in non-US markets than Adidas. Does that mean Nike is more popular than Adidas? Sure does.
