I don't blame him. His Dad made Nike/Jumpman brand plenty of money, his name is part of the brand name. This was agreed to when he signed but Adidas ofcourse will fight the excemption. I'm sure any fine will be donated.

Sorry, 813, still think it stinks as a far as the team concept goes ... I guess Kirk doesn't abide by the same rule as GOL, it's the name on the front of the jersey, not the back.

Next time one of your players is on Pardon the Interruption let me know.

::) ;D ::)

For something they actually accomplished or because they were born the son of a Hall of Famer but only skilled enough to play for a mid-major?

UCF facing $3M sneaker dilemma

Comment Email Print Share

Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla. -- A fight over the shoes Michael Jordan's son will wear at the University of Central Florida could cost the school as much as $3 million.

Freshman guard Marcus Jordan is refusing to wear shoes made by adidas, the brand the university has a contract with for all its sports. He says he will only wear his father's Nike Air Jordan shoes because it holds special meaning to his family.

The problem is UCF Knights has a $3 million, six-year contract with adidas that requires coaches and athletes to use the company's apparel and equipment.

UCF said in a statement Thursday that adidas was aware of the situation during contract renewal discussions. The university says it is working with adidas "in determining how this unique set of circumstances will work for both parties."

Maybe he could wear one of each?  Or maybe he should just transfer to FIU I think they are Nike.

You'd think this would have been somewhere in the recruiting process if it means that much to him .....

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
