    What the actual fuck are you talking about?
    Those are the only other schools that have deals with Adidas comparable to UW

    It goes way deeper than just FSP

    By being a flag bearer West Coast (if not nationally) school for Adidas, the marketing machine they are going to throw behind UW is going to be vast. This should do nothing but expand our branding and that will help in expanding our recruiting reach.

    The only other major deals Adidas has at the college level(and ASU doesn’t count) are with Nebraska and Louisville. We know Nebraska is CLASSY and likely about to experience a revival under Frost. It wouldn’t shock me if Adidas distances itself a bit from Louisville given the scandal there. We’re a BIG DEAL to Adidas ... they are going to push us as such.

    I pay my $0.81for MBA insight - suck it Oregon!

    No recruit outside of UWs current brand bubble cares if we wear adidas vs Nike when they can't get wafflehouse/chikfila/whataburger anywhere near uw.
    Not NOW, Doog.

    Try to keep up - Titties is making great moves that outpace our basement boners.

    Savvy?!

    I think the understated point is the confirmation of legitimacy of UW athletics. There's no question it's a big time school with the dollar value being floated so high.

    I think recruits want to affirm their decision with things like "it's a big time school and big boy football with big boy coaches ...
