Can someone tell me who the guy in bottom left corner is? I assume it's Rabb.

Ivan Rabb. He'll be one of the best in the country.

The Blue Ribbon Magazine cover just came out.

I cannot locate the article again, but. I read a post om FB that said Blue Ribbon named Bryant on the all america list.

I think these are correct...
Nike sponsors 43 teams from the Power 5 conferences. 43 of the 65(including ND in the ACC).
Adidas sponsors 9.
Under Armour sponsors 11.
Outside the Power 5..
Nike has Boise State, Butler, BYU, Creighton, Memphis, San Diego State, SMU and Connecticut. I think they have Gonzaga too.
Adidas has no one.
Under Armour has Cincy, St Johns, Seton Hall, Temple.

Yes I do. Because the product makes up for the money. We also wouldn't have to worry about the ugliness that Adidas puts out. In case no one remembershould these.... And Under Armour is continually growing as Adidas is falling. They seem to be falling quick in the basketball world too after losing the NBA and gaining James Harden lol.

[HoosierAloha]

Every company is has made some ugly uniforms.  Nike has made some ugly ones, and UA has made some as well; I specifically remember a football uniform they made that never should've seen the light of day (or gotten the designer drug tested).

You take the best offer.

Pretty sure Glass denied wearing those. Zellers sophomore year I think. Thank God he did. That was just turrible.

Sure everyone has put out ugly uniforms but who does it with consistency? Adidas. Adidas continues to lose ground in basketball in the US. It is a soccer brand.

The last thing of Adidas I bought was 2012. I bought the crazy lights. $100. Should have been $5. They were more fragile than DRoses knee. First back cut and ripped the mesh on the sides. Those were worse than the garbage they hand out to high school teams.

My Crazy Lights never did that. You must make some superhuman cuts.

Or he just got a pair that was the shoe equivalent to a 'lemon' car, which could happen to any company.

I've had Adidas last just as long as any other shoe, and I've had Nike's fall apart.  At the end of the day they're probably made in the same sweat shop.

The only Nikes I won't buy are the Max Air or whatever they are. Once they pop they're worthless. All the Adidas pro teams they give to HS's are awful. My LeBrons are amazing. My Curry's are amazing. Best shoe I ever had were my DWade Cons. The same ones he wore in the 06 Finals.
