The University of Wisconsin has severed their ties to Nike over the company's treatment of workers in Central America. Will other colleges follow, including teams in the SEC?

The Hogs are switching to Nike this year, so I guess the answer is no.

Nike has the better uniforms. I've never really liked Under Armor or Adidas

I prefer Nike uniforms to Under Armour uniforms, but I like their clothing products a lot better than Nike's.

Either way, both are nicer than Russel

Nike Uniform Dumped

There are no Nike uniforms at Wisconsin; unless you believe Addidas and Nike are one in the same.

Its contract with Nike generated $49,000 in royalty income for the university last year.


$49k isn't much of a statement.

arrakis, thanks for clearing that up. When I read the linked article, I just assumed they were talking about uniforms. I have since found out that what Wisconsin really did was end their licensing agreement with Nike. Glad you caught my mistake.
