It’s getting weird in here.  Lol

 

i think until Nike transfers their love to another university we aren’t going to win head to head NIL battles with Duke. However, the local pull and staying close to home could bridge the gap if the gap isn’t enormous. 

So what you're saying is... Time to dump Adidas' lame a$$es and go to Nike?

Don’t cha find it a bit ironic how the whole FBI sting went down?

 Nike has big, big money and “pull” and will always want the next Jordan, Lebron to carry a generation.  
 

As far as us transferring, meh, idk.  If we want top 5 guys, but we can win with top 20-50 guys who stay, I believe.

I would just rather have Nike gear personally. Though my New Balance basketball shoes are pretty awesome.

American sports... yeah Nike in a landslide. I have no interest in cool soccer gear. 

Right. If soccer so the excuse... Not many people going out and wearing them IU soccer jerseys... An Xavier Booker jersey would probably sell though.

Here as with Kaiser, I think, you see the possible upside of having the head ball coach make his presence a big deal.

You can succeed recruiting by really grinding, logging the miles on the jet, no question. But Kaiser pushing his date back, Woody showing up here after the visit this week and IU seemingly having a seat at the table…if your presence is special you get noticed.

(and I’m betting Walsh deserves some credit for helping us get back in this one)
