MEGA New Miami Adidas Ultraboost🔥 - The Shoe and Nike/Adidas Thread.

'The shoes cost $100 in adult sizes on the adidas website, and it is safe to assume the unbranded apparel is reasonably priced as well.'

Couldn't even throw a :neonu: on the apparel. Which model fell apart? Were they Hardens??

Pretty sure that Nijel is wearing the unreleased Dame 7 model that I own a pair of. If I would have known, I would have brought my pair to Houston in my carry-on.

So now I have to ask myself...

Did the UM Equipment Room sell Nijel's extra pair on eBay months ago? And did I buy them?

If someone can get in contact with Nijel, let me know I've got an extra pair for him for 2023-24...




The seller is from...Houston...CONSPIRACY!

Again, they provide each player with multiple pairs of sneakers(They do refreshes regularly throughout the season too, to where you can easily have 8-10 pairs by the time the season ends), whether those student athletes pack them, whether the equipment manager has them on site isn't an Adidas issue, it's a planning issue. Keep in mind, Nike was so stingy on equipment, guys had to buy their own kicks, because outside of the team issued couple of pairs, Nike wouldn't give you anything extra. Nike treated us like dog crap for years, but the jocksniffers don't want to admit that. If Nike comes correct in the next negotiation cycle, then let's talk. Until then, they can kick rocks. I'll never get how so called Miami Hurricane fans can be more loyal to a shoe company than to the University itself.

Just for clarity, what is your official job title within the Adidas company?

Take it up with the NCAA, who insists on having Final Fours in FOOTBALL STADIUMS, where locker rooms are far as **** away. Had this been a regular gym, it would have been a lot easier to resolve. Even with dude running to the locker room, grabbing the shoe and coming back, it took time.

It wasn't the NCAA who picked the wrong size shoe..

Then blame the equipment manager. Frankly, someone should have asked the question BEFORE going on that jog. The funny part is that Nijel himself refused to blame the staff, because even he knew, this was just an example of a fluke happenstance.

No.

EVEN HE KNEW THIS WAS ADIDAS'S FAULT.

@RVACane , can we get an administrative name change for @Canedude08 to @Flukehappenstance ?

He is trying to invent some fantasy world where adidas DID NOTHING WRONG, Nike is evil, and that we should all blame some UM student who pays his tuition by working as an equipment manager for running to the locker room to retrieve replacement shoes that were the wrong size for Nijel.

Just for clarity, what has Nike done for the University of Miami besides low ball us? You can tell the people in this thread that have never negotiated ANYTHING. I'm quite sure that had Nike merely matched Adidas, Miami would have stayed they couldn't even be bothered to do that. I'm loyal to the UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI, not some shoe company that treated the institution and the student athletes like crap for decades. If Nike comes correct in the next negotiation window, then cool. Until they come correct, I'm rolling with the company that has shown the ability to do for our student athletes and put money into the Athletic Department. One thing I've never seen during this Adidas run: Student athletes not getting equipment on time or in the wrong size.
