Was that the point? I assumed it had to do with the quality of the shoes.

I have heard that the talented athletes are more likely to go to a school that's sponsored by Nike or Adidas because they'd rather wear those brands of shoes than Under armour. But I've never heard some suggest there was a conscious effort by Nike or Adidas to get kids committed to schools they sponsor

well, I guess the point is similar.

for whatever reason, being a nike school is an advantage

not saying I agree just trying to get a handle on the thread

When I was in High School we had three guys who went to play high level college basketball, a five star and 2 four star guys. Guaranteed you would probably know their names.

Shoe Companies ABSOLUTELY play a huge role in the seedy underbelly of the AAU system where these guys play most of their games.
