While the majority of recruits do like Nike more than the other brands the uniforms/uniform brand is not really going to affect the vast majority of recruits decisions.

I personally want to be the Wrangler flagship in college football. We can stick with Adidas for the other sports.

Florida Gators would eat that up. Think of how many jerseys they would sell.

I'm blatantly subjective because of my hatred for Nike. That and they make shitty gear while profiting because of their name. Literally everything they produce is a piece of trash, if you own Nike shoes you should just go barefoot instead.

With the way things are going we will be Adidas's flagship school because we will be their only school.

Adidas is running out of "big" schools fast: state, a&m, miami, ASU, UCLA, Nebraska, Kansas, Louisville, Wisky are their last big ones.

Question: what would it take to get the interlocking nike logo back? Is it possible for adidas to buy it from nike? What are the chances of it ever making a comeback?

If they really want to drive more sales they should pay whatever Nike wants however I think Nike used it for Montana State or some shite so I'm afraid it'll never happen.

Yeah it isn't even something we want at this point. The whole point of the new logo campaign after Mullen got here was to usher in a new era of our athletic program. I'm all for putting the past behind us and moving forward.

The anniversary jerseys were fresh and need to stay however you can't tell me the interlocking MSU isn't the best. I find it hard to believe that a significant amount of state fans wouldn't feel the same.

Frickin Missouri State has it. I know because I saw a Black on Black interlocking MSU hat and bought it. About three hours later someone pointed out to me that is said Missouri State on the back. I was unhappy. Didn't see it cause it was black on black.

That's what you get for buying a black on black hat.

Not a big deal. Just like Georgia and Grambling having the same logo. Everyone associates that with the Georgia or hell maybe even the Packers depending on what part of the country you're from.
