Hi guys: This is our “2001” jerseys from Adidas. This will be the last Adidas **** I will be posting.
First thing first, & imma tag him, but me & @Gocanes1990 were talking about this weeks ago, privately. The last time I was accused of being a zealot for Nike, & u know who u r, I specifically said I’m going to stop providing intel, & I always keep my word.
However, I dropped another Easter egg, actually I’ve dropped several Easter eggs. The last Easter egg was OVO x Miami in this thread. OVO is Drake’s company, u know the same Drake that’s one of Nike’s biggest collaborators? His clothing line is NOCTA which is a direct subsidiary of Nike, but OVO specifically collabs w Jordan & Nike.
I specifically said Adidas put all their eggs in the PSU & UTenn baskets, plus they have a **** ton of priority teams coming up all at one time, so it will be interesting to see how that plays out. Welllllllllll…..
I specifically & religiously have reiterated we’re not a priority for Adidas. I literally gave the pecking order, but of course I had the….nvm.
I never commented on Pete’s rant b/c I knew Pete was guessing based upon Adidas x Miami Dade-County. Now, let me back up…when I first came in this thread I was very confident we would switch back to Nike, but Adidas did do a great job in trying to persuade the right folks. HOWEVER, I’ve told u guys Nike’s mission under their CEO: Sports.
Nike has done a great job in reuniting the family, including having former Nike athletes come & rep the brand as ambassadors at various camps. It was looking dicey for a minute, but when @Gocanes1990 confirmed from Miami’s end the same thing I heard from my Nike source, I knew the smoke was completely fire.
Two weeks ago, the text I received was “[]_[] ready?” So I sat on this **** for two weeks. I didn’t know the details, but I had assumed it would be along the same lines of Jordan x Michigan. We’re going to have a lot of collaborations for cleats & off the field gear. We’ll be a Nike NIL school.
Oh, there was something else…2/3 of the $20m is coming in the form of cash + royalties.
Adidas gave us $6.78m/yr w 0 royalties…. We’ll be getting $20m/yr w royalties.

I love it. I love your post, sir.
How long have you and I preached the Gospel of "Royalties".
Also, as it relates to your picture in the post, I have a picture of an actual jersey with tags, and it looks a LOT better than the picture that is being circulated. As much as I have been against UM working with adidas, I have to admit, the jersey I saw is straight fire.
If all the product is as good as the picture that I saw, then my ONLY "complaint" will be the adidas logo. Other than that, adidas appears to have nailed all the key details, from the collar to the shoulders to the stripes down the sides.
Oh, and you'll love the jersey number(s)...
I believe that pic is the fan version vs. the actual on field version. I posted prematurely out of disgust & anger. lol.
