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

Any rumors of a switch to Nike and/or jumpman?

I figured if reupping with adidas was a forgone conclusion they’d have already done it maximized the playoff run hype

Wait until I send you the picture of @Hurracanes at the last UM practice... :ROFLMAO:

Trust this man if he tells you to take good care of your UM Nike gear. He certainly does!

Sadly, I think that the adidas fix is in. We will probably sign a 50 year deal, given the way that UM usually enters into bad contracts.

Anything over 8 years and you need written guarantee of a good faith market review that automatically results in pay bumps so at minimum we receive avg of Adidas top 3 payouts. Or better a guarantee of yearly market review that makes us #1

This could mean:

- Take extra care of your Nike gear.....because Miami will soon switch back to the swoosh

- Take extra care of your Nike gear....because there won't be any new Miami swoosh gear.

It's the same typical misleading stuff you invent all the time.

You never said "if we sign a deal". You never said "this is what I'd like the contract to stipulate". You just blurted out some contractual mumbo jumbo that made it sound like that's what Miami could or would get.

Look, it's one thing to spout a bunch of made up terms that sound great, as if you've had experience negotiating such deals, but then it invariably turns into people thinking that you have some knowledge about how Miami has secured a best-in-market deal.

Which, of course, simply isn't true.

There is no apparel deal that should exceed 8 years. Period, end of story. You know what's better than a "good faith market review"? An actual opportunity to negotiate a brand new deal at whatever the prevailing market dictates.

Yeah, boy, a "market review". That'll fix everything, by god. What a ridiculous concept. Why would adidas (or any company) agree to such a thing? "Yes, we just signed an 8-year contract, but the cost could literally increase on an annual basis." Whoever those executives are WOULD BE FIRED. That's like a baseball team having to go to salary arbitration every year for a player, EVERY SINGLE YEAR FOR EIGHT CONSECUTIVE YEARS. Nobody is that stupid, except for Beta Blake James.

There are other, simpler, and more accepted ways to go about one's business. Shorter contracts, for one. The onus should be on the apparel maker. If they don't want to have a ****-ton of unsold inventory, then it is in the company's best interest to keep the best-selling universities happy. Long-term contracts breed complacency.

And there are other ways to monitor significant market-driven and hot-new-deal-driven bumps without it being an "annual good faith market review".

All I'm asking from you is to be more clear on whether you are merely PROPOSING new contractual language, or if you are intimating that this is common contractual language which we merely need to insist upon in our negotiations.

I'm not surprised a semi-smart dummy like you couldn't infer what I obviously stated given all you do is repeatedly lie about what people say after you either purposefully or moronically misunderstand what is plainly written in english.

I genuinely think every single response you have made to me in this entire thread is a blatant mistake reading of what I wrote lmao. It's just constantly repeating the same cycle.

You've been arguing with me about apparel contract length for like 4 yrs lmao.

Yeah; the shoes weren’t sized properly. Adidas make good shoes for skilled players, but still struggle w/ big men.
