Addidas versus Nike

Might be the 1st time I’ve seen our coaches wear Jordan’s/ non adidas while on the job

I've seen this quite a bit over the last few years, I just laugh and reflect on the reality that MOST PEOPLE PREFER NIKE SHOES OVER ADIDAS SHOES. That's just a fact.

For the record, I own all three Nike shoes shown in the pictures.

Was thinking the same thing. @Rellyrell is this significant? Has this happened in the past with coaches? Not that I can remember

This is all I know, bro:

From former players, to current players, & now coaches…when either on the sidelines or outside of campus, they’re rocking Jumpman.

No, I’ve not seen this as we’ve always seen coaches in Adidas shoes during recruitments both on & off campus. I just know when Big Joe was here, one of the recruiting pitches was we were switching to Jordan.

The only other thing I know/knew was:
1. Nike was going to invade Miami this off season on the youth circuit as they’re officially bringing back “The Open.”

2. There’s a couple of school’s that will be “flipping back” to Nike, although no specifics were given (although I have my suspicions)

3. Elliot is pushing Athlete’s first initiatives, focusing on brand awareness via athletes, first, vs. collaborations.

4. We should know more by this Summer

The only thing that’s at least keeping a little hope is that we probably would have resigned the new contract with adidas pushing the news following or leading up the natty.

I hope the school is going to at least LISTEN to what Nike/jordan have to offer
 
The Nike vs the others "debate" reminds me that at one time Blackberry was once the "coolest" device on the planet......................

Nike drops out of the S&P 100

Sure did, along w/:
1. Honeywell Aerospace
2. Colgate-Palmolive
3. Simon Properties

All 4 will remain in the S&P 500 which is the benchmark, but A.I Tech companies have bumped all 4 out of the S&P 100. Ironically, Nike has only been in the S&P 100 for 18 yrs. What’s crazy is I’m doing all of these Securities examines, & to get real time updates b4 taking examines is a bit surreal.

excellent attempt at deflection and excuses
 
All I know is if CIS is talking about a stock ticker on the football board you do not buy that ticker at any price. Many such cases. Well maybe just one.

The stock is getting crushed.
I think a lot of people are moving money around due to AI. Not sure if this AI surge is a bubble or uncertainty. Likely a bit of both. Seeing a lot of redundancy in some of these AI platforms and apps. But I’m not a tech guy.
But there has to be something internally going on at Nike for that stock price drop. 48% in 12 months. Ouch!!

It’s very simple, actually.

Covid-19 giveth & it tooketh away. Covid-19 allowed Nike to profit well beyond any of their projections. If u notice, every report continues to use Nike’s all time high as a point of reference. Their stock has never traded that high in its entire history. It’s one of the few blue chip, split-stock companies which allows its price/share to be considerably lower than a traditional blue chip publicly traded company.

Nike’s stock from 2010-2019 avg. trade per share was $40. From 2020–2023, the shares ballooned to $112/share.

2020-2023 is the anomaly not the norm, but sensationalism in only focuses on the peak vs. their 15-20 yr history. The peak was due to the world being shut down, & Nike taking full advantage of the DTC model. Other brands suffered during this small window. However, Nike overplayed its hand under the previous CEO solely focusing on its DTC, while alienating wholesale partners that helped grow its brand to where it is.

Covid-19 brought about tragedy but also new found $$ (both legally & illegally). With the world shut down, Nike was able to control the market. Once the world opened back up, & financial struggles started hitting the economy, Nike’s plan to sacrifice its shelf space for digital space backfired as smaller brands, & even forgotten established brands took up that commodity.

Ppl saw other brands & liked them, leaving Nike w/ excess inventory. It also doesn’t help that most of their major markets r now isolated due to tariffs, hemorrhaging sale opportunities.

So yes, their stock is being hammered, but their per capita is still that of all the major brands, combined.

It’s funny b/c no one talks about Adidas stock plummeting. They peaked also during Covid in 2021, as well, at $176/share; yet, now they are at $86 today on the NYSE. No one is talking about OnCloud stock dropping from $51/share to now $27.

As I’ve said many times, it’s only big new w Nike b/c it’s Nike. We’re in a bad economy, but as long as Nike’s revenue is dwarfing its competitors, combined, which it currently is the evaluations will eventually correct itself by the 2028 fiscal yr.

Their main focus is back to athletics, which is y they r aggressively signing NIL athletes. The inventory should be completed by the beginning of 2027, price points aligned. They’ll most likely have the sneaker of the year this yr, & their running division (Nike’s original baby) is continuing to ascend.
 
Nike is a poorly run company that make some really questionable decision to alienate to many customers. Plain and simple
