Unlike most schools, we don't take cash from Nike.

We take equipment and clothing from them and then get royalties (14% for everything but shoes).

I think it's always been like this with us and Nike so there must be some benefit to it or Foley wouldn't have re-inked a similar deal.


Yeah, the UF deal is a bit different. I think the value of UF's actual contract is somewhere around $4 million annually + additional royalties.

Can't find the royalty details but we receive 3.1M in equipment and clothing from Nike annually.

There's another $255,000 allowance for coaching staff clothing.

If Foley is trying to keep that royalty money quiet it's either a huge amount and he doesn't want other to know about it or it's a bust and he doesn't want others to know about it.

Since we just signed with Nike again, I'm assuming it's a good deal for UF.
