They used to be sneaker heads arguing about Nike vs Adidas until they met a man with no feet…I have some neighbors that are a wealthy older couple that have a waterfront home. Every morning I see them walking and just recently noticed that they're both always effing barefoot. I used to think "These weirdos. They must be cot**** former hippie freaks that have more faith in the Lauderdale sewer systems than I do".
After reading this thread I'm thinking they have it all figured out and a shoeless life is the right path.
It’s called “grounding”, and it’s wonderful.I have some neighbors that are a wealthy older couple that have a waterfront home.

New Balance are the way to go, amirite?Sneakers are for children.
Grown men buying Nike or Adidas? Might as well get yourself some Legos and Play Doh while you’re at it.
From the looks of it it seems like Knight has more say so about what the schools does than what Nike does.Three of their last four hires have been from within. I wouldn’t be shocked if they did it again. Phil invests in the facilities but he doesn’t splurge on coaches, at least in recent history. Even their recruiting didn’t explode until Mario arrived.
Better than "pegging"? Asking for @nystateofmind.It’s called “grounding”, and it’s wonderful.
I didn’t know that NYSOM account was even still active be careful, it’s like saying candy man in front of the mirror.Better than "pegging"? Asking for @nystateofmind.
The amount of flooding in South Florida would make me leery of going barefoot anywhere aside from the beach. There's probably more bacteria on our streets than in Candi Fisher or Megan Mullen's mouths.
Facts.Yeah, and as I mentioned to someone else, in the corporate world, if you have a clause like this, you usually tell the impacted party as a courtesy, so they don't read about it in the newspaper. The fact that adidas did that and never said anything to Beta Blake is still a valid concern, even if Beta Blake was ALSO an idiot for not figuring things out sooner.
He must get dressed in a dark closet.No. No….this was Al Golden’s combo. Specifically, the coaches had cart blanche to chose uniform combos & Golden chose FAMU South. Lol
The Adidas Contract runs through the 2027-2028 season with annual payments of approximately $8.2 million. So six more years at $8.2 million per year would leave $49.2 million outstanding. There is probably an out in the contract, but I have not idea how much. Highly unlikely Adidas would be willing to let UM out to sign with their biggest competitor.So was listening to one of the canes blogs and they said Mario and money not an issue but somehow Nike was an obstacle.
Anyone know what that could mean?
I know Mario is very appreciative of what Phil Knight and Nike has done for him in giving him a P5 coaching opportunity and providing plenty of financial resources.
As a sort of pay back to Knight for what he’s done be that Mario asks for UM go back to Nike as part of the negotiations?
If that’s the case what are the legal and financial repercussions breaking the contract with ADIDAS?

Does it occur to you that sometimes people repeat things they read on the internet and imply they heard them from an actual source?Point taken but he’s not the only one saying it tho.
You gave someone ammo to start a rumor of Phil Knight moving Nike headquarters to Miami.
they would be ****ed but oh well. maybe Phil likes south florida more as well lol
