I love Indiana's throwback style uniforms.

psyclone, I think Cedric was being sarcastic there.

Sorry.....generally I haven't paid attention to who is pro and anti Addidas. Not a big fashion guy (as my wife would attest!). Hard for me to understand how superficial it is to let a decision on where to go to school rest on what brand of gear the team wears.

They're ranked #13 in the country and just beat UNC (#3) last night. Beat KU earlier. I'll have what they're having (to paraphrase When Harry Met Sally)!

Sure, there are exceptions. Just like when we beat UConn. Nobody would say the CAA was stronger than the Big East that year. It's generally, overall, who has a stronger program: Duke, Carolina, and Kentucky or Kansas (who has won two titles in 30 years, one in Nikes), Indiana (who hasn't won a title since the 80s), and UCLA (which hasn't won a title since the 90s and is leaving adidas this year).

I cant believe a dumb thread like this was even started. It's about as dumb as the morons at the local watering hole arguing over whether or not Chevy is better than Ford, then some guy from the smoking lounge yells "Dodge! Motherf**kas!"
Just delete this whole stupid thread please.

Kansas is Adidas.

There isn't a direct correlation between winning and the brand a team wears. Teams aren't lacing up on gameday and taking the court thinking "OMG they're wearing Nike - we're so f***ed!!".

Hell, look at Oregon's football program aka Nike 2.0. They have 2.7 billion Nike uniform combos and their team blows a**.

I wonder why? Could it have anything to do with their coach leaving?

That's what I said: Kansas, Indiana, and UCLA. It has been said before that those are adidas schools. I pointed out that Kansas, while currently an adidas school, won their title in 1988 wearing Nike.

That's what I'm saying. If you wear Nike, you win more. Period.

This is clearly a Nike employee or bot or something. Speaks in super formal English on other threads and simply posts "Mason will win this game" on every game thread.

Why is vcu sponsored by Nike but we aren't? I know we used too, but Duke and Kentucky are Nike teams, so should we. Nike makes the best stuff.

If we are sponsored by Nike, we will get higher ranked recuits

I can't tell if your parents beat you too much or not enough.

Probably not enough. Happy to fill in where they failed.

And posts random stats about random players. If they're from Nike and wanted to drive interest in Nike, I think all they did was make me resent Nike. My basketball shoes are Adidas, and my wrestling shoes have always been adidas. Nike can suck a rancid donkey dick, and go peddle their bullshit overseas to the eurotrash

Well Nike has been withdrawing from Europe and Adidas is a European company with a massive market there so you're probably in for a disappointment on that front

I know, it is so stupid as everyone with a brain knows that Chevy is the best!
