Adidas North America is out of Portland.

Still misleading to say that Adidas is a Portland based company, implying they are an American company. It’s like saying the US based company Toyota. 

 

PS Osama bin laden was also a gooner.

UA gave away the farm to Notre Dame and UCLA.  

I miss the early days when we were one of just a handful of UA schools.  I think it was USF, USC(e), Texas Tech and one other......someone with green uniforms...maybe Marshall?  

Maryland....I think they are THE UA school

Plank and his buddies are Maryland grads.

Yeah, I can see how that reads a little weird. I guess it's obvious to me since I can literally see the campus from my office window. The company I work for gets 50% at the adidas employee store, so I'm hoping to see some spare Bulls gear pop up (though not holding my breath).

I always pegged Bin Laden as a Chel-ski guy, myself.

So Usf gets more $ if we buy stuff? Sounds good!

Compared to the $ we got in our previous contract with UA this is a significant reduction. I wonder what the impact will be? 

From the Daily Stampede:

The deal gives USF a guaranteed promotional product allotment of $2.8 million each year throughout this eight-year agreement, plus 150K cash. All totaling, eight years, $23.6 million.

By comparison, USF’s current deal with Under Armour gave the school $2.2 million this year for product and 725K cash.

OUCH.

UA must have really lowballed for the renewal. That's a cool half million plus less a year in actual cash.

I expected it to go down honestly.  Looks close to old deal but overall slightly less.  Hopefully the cleats will be better who knows.

[USF Bulls Football]

Looks like the total yearly amount ends up being about the same, with a chance to earn more.
