Harlan - the AD that gave us Adidas and Chuckles.  What a tool!

Totally incompetent…did not focus on what was important.

More money? Because that's why he went with Adidas.

Actually Adidas was less money! Which makes it even more dumbfounding.

USF sports teams will be outfitted in Adidas gear starting next summer.

 

"While providing more in apparel to USF over the course of the contract, the Adidas partnership gives less cash to USF than its Under Armour deal."

I don't doubt its worth less than our expired UA deal, we're worth less than we were when we signed it. I'm guessing UA lowballed us and we ended up with Adidas this time around. Can't imagine we willingly took less money to be with Adidas.

UA overpaid for us and many other schools all those years ago when they tried to jump onto the uniform scene. My buddy works at Wilson in Chicago and told me UA is bleeding money which is why they couldn't afford to re-up many of their contracts when they expired. It's well known in his line of business. Hence why we landed with Adidas and received a lesser contract. The fact that we weren't performing well also plays into what Adidas offered.

    “This is not a broken football program by any means. It just needs to be united, to get everybody on the same page, share that same vision, and really to have that standard - best is the standard.”

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
