It’s over for everyone.
Oregon gonna be in tears after this

Blake James would've accepted ASAP...Great job doing due diligence Rad. Glad that the people who are making decisions now actually care.
Joe E definitely runs a far more professional organization across the board with the way he handles (seemingly) everything. Hasn't missed yet.
What a breath of fresh air.
Design wise, yes. But only the past 5 years or so. Remember the first few years with adidas had those awful feathers on the sleeves. And they also got so many details wrong (name plate, the stretched out U on the collar, saggy pants where our guys always had to pull them up, etc).
wait, whatHe gone
You can thank Mark Richt, not Adidas, for the current jerseys we wear.This
I don’t care about a brand me way or the other. I do care that every uniform Nike put us in from ‘04 on was ugly garbage.
Bingo.Design wise, yes. But only the past 5 years or so. Remember the first few years with adidas had those awful feathers on the sleeves. And they also got so many details wrong (name plate, the stretched out U in the collar, saggy pants where our guys always had to pull them up, etc).
But quality wise, Nike has always been superior.
Don't know how to explain it but as much as the Natty appearance this is actually a signal that..we're legit back. Hate to say it and continue the narrative but you know it when it happens for real.Bro.....a little, irrelevant private school in Coral Gables securing the largest apparel deal in the history of the sport.
We're all homers around here, and that's cool. But I'm gonna spit facts: literally NOBODY moves the needle like The U. Nobody in America.
What was Mario's line at the introductory press conference? Something like "When The U is on, there's nothing like it" ??
He ain't lying. When we're right, it's the preeminent brand in the sport. Good lord, what the **** is happening in the last 3+ years? $40M rosters, $20M annual apparel deals, just please don't wake me up. I could legit cry right now, and **** you, Mario. I'm not listening to your **** anymore. Miami isn't just here, Miami is BACK.
I wish we had a live camera on @Rellyrell HAHAHAHAHAHAA
I hope he holds firm. I know Sumrall probably doesn't have a lot of say as a new coach but Nike/Jumpman forced a ton of alternate jerseys/helmets on the Gators this year.The head coach has to agree with that. Mario won't do that. If anything our uniforms will be close to our OG uniforms of the 1980s.
Our current Jersey designs are the best we've ever had. The issue with the pants is a different storyYou can thank Mark Richt, not Adidas, for the current jerseys we wear.
Pretty weird that Nike never managed to put Alabama, OSU, Florida, LSU, etc. in such ugly garbage....
Our name plate font is ****ed to this day; we use these weird spaghetti thin lettering compared to Nike's clean, bold font. Leg pinstripes still wrap around the player's thighs. Pants still fit like ****.Design wise, yes. But only the past 5 years or so. Remember the first few years with adidas had those awful feathers on the sleeves. And they also got so many details wrong (name plate, the stretched out U in the collar, saggy pants where our guys always had to pull them up, etc).

I’m convinced they blew their wad with Tennessee and Penn State. They thought Miami would take a lesser deal, that’s where they were dead wrong. Willing to bet that had Adidas merely matched, Miami would have stuck around. Changing suppliers is a pain, there has to be a legit financial incentive to do so. Adidas failed, that’s on them.Btw, I am on record saying that Adidas always makes these lowball loyalty offers to long-term customers. It's insane that they have done it again.

Found the post. Read it and you'll see what happened. I can't believe they did exactly what I said they will do lmao @Rellyrell
I agree and am more than confident that Nike is able to replicate our classic design with pants that actually fit and details that actually are correct.Our current Jersey designs are the best we've ever had. The issue with the pants is a different story
