What did Tech High pay Coach Cool to go 4-8 again?

Its low hanging fruit picking on you guys. Like making fun of the happy idiot standing on the corner smiling and waiving at cars. You feel bad because you know better. But we only do it when you come here to show your ass. Which is frequently, sadly.

I care little of happens to Cincy and/or your crusade towards the Big 12. A topic was made and I shared my thoughts nothing more, nothing less. Now you may continue to your tirade.

butt hurt Houston fan, you may go now.

It definitely does matter and Nike is unquestionably the best. But UC has no issue recruiting. Taking a deal with the most cash and exposure is unquestionably the best move. Nike treats far too many of their affiliate schools as afterthoughts.

Good point

No one is talking to you

I don't know why but I've never liked Under Armour's apparel. Just as a personal preference, I like Adidas and Nike more. The only thing with Adidas and Nike is that it seems like they care more about some schools than others and the ones left out don't get the near the same treatment. Under Armour seems to be a lot better about that, maybe because they don't sponsor as many teams. Regardless, the smart move is to follow the money and go with whoever will give you the most.

I hope they don't follow the Nike-Oregon relationship with Maryland.

Under Armour is getting better and better, they already surpassed Adidas in América, I think.

UA isn't like that at all. They're very open to working with schools to get product that meets everyone's preferences. I know that they offered to do some crazy uniform stuff with us like they have with Maryland (and we promptly wrecked them), but we declined.
