... and probably Auburn all new and better contracts soon.

Auburn just re-upped their deal with Under Armour last October and they have the most lucrative deal in the conference right now.

A few other programs just recently re-upped their deals with Nike so they will not be getting new contracts anytime soon.

We had a bidding war going-on between Nike and Under Armour and last I heard Nike was way out in front in the $65 million range so this news today was a little surprising to me. I thought for sure we would be in Nike stuff next season, especially since Dawn Staley and Frank Martin were both pushing for Nike.

Maybe Under Armour is going to give Dawn Staley her own shoe like Nike did, I dunno.
