That's a bit of a stretch, isn't it?

I mean whatever, other than UNC, who makes more sense than us?
Instead it's some weird amalgamation of Cal, Georgetown, Marquette, etc.
Marquette makes some sense because dwade used to be a Jordan brand guy.
I dunno, it would be cool to have the jump an on our bball stuff but I don't think it's that big of a deal. Just so long as we are not Adidas. That stuff they come up with is usually sleeved hot garbage.

Throw Michigan in there too. Since their move to Nike, the bball is now part of it.

Looks like Nike has released all of the summer/fall gear for this season. Best places I found to have it is fansedge or the BTN shop. Based on the search there seems to be a lot more shield items than last year.

Well, that should be worth a win or two.
As I understand it, Nike has a two-year window of exclusivity to produce Shield apparel. I wonder if we'll make it the primary logo after that, when we can put it on everything. That would be my vote.

Just hope their "lock" of a win on 9-4-15 is better than some of our recruiting locks lol

I'm thinking that the
is here to stay as the primary mark. You will see the shield a lot more once it becomes an open mark, but the Athletic Department needs to stick with the updated I. I truly believe that it is the best thing to come out of the rebrand.

Yep. I prefer orange, if for no other reason the safety/visibility factor on the highway.
I think they will possibly be used occasionally by teams other than football and basketball. Also, the buses may be used for regional PR events maybe.
I figured that, but guess I just didn't think the other sports would cover 52 weeks is all. I could also see them using them for the caravan events like you mentioned for PR events.
