HoosierX Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 I'm not sure he should be getting a grade on Cignetti yet. I'm enjoying the hell out of this year, but if we don't hold on to Cignetti things would likely go downhill quickly. You would see the same mass exodus JMU did last year. MikeRoberts 1 Quote

For Nike IU was going to be just another school and they weren't going to get the same amount of money in the deal. If I was to guess a lack of football success has killed these negotiations in the past. realTomCrean 1 Quote
sweetpain Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 Adidas was willing to give more money and IU is a top 3 school for them.

If I was to guess a lack of football success has killed these negotiations in the past. Can you imagine Nike with the success of the football team now. I agree Adidas was the safe bet but sometimes gotta take an educational chance. We could of had 2-3 special football unis by now.Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk Loaded Chicken Sandwich and CSP 2 Quote
steubenhoosier Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 Now that Oregon is in the B1G, I’m glad we’re not a Nike school. Would always be second fiddle at best. Quote

I know better the best deal we were behind Nebraska and Washington. Outside of that, Kansas and Louisville are ahead of us. I'm not sure on Texas A&M, Miami or Arizona State. We aren't a flagship program of Adidas. We are just a program that happens to be signed with them. Quote

coonhounds Posted January 26, 2025 Posted January 26, 2025 Yes if he don't act soon I am! I mean at some point he is responsible for the optics of the basketball program. That time is now. Pressure needs applied to him somehow. He hasn't even gave a bode of confidence or said anything Sent from my SM-S926U using Tapatalk str8baller and MikeRoberts 2 Quote
