I haven’t listened to the podcast yet, but someone told me the II guys think ND sticks with UA.

That would truly suck unless UA makes major NIL commitments that we know Nike would not.

Too much Lulu talk.

Best apparel stuff currently is Legends.

For the previous two weeks, the II guys have been saying Nike for sure.

so
either
1) They're playing us up for the "shock" of Nike
2) They've got some new information that ND is taking the money

Here we come 2....

UA is now for rural PA hunters and poors. See a lot of them in the county….. usually a UA hoodie paired with pajama bottoms and Crocs. Quite fetching as you can imagine….

I'm not the praying type, but this post alone has me saying a single decade rosary for ND to decide on Nike.

I haven't listened to II Pod yet
But, unless UA is willing to pay NIL, this is so so dumb.

It would be really smart to say "hey you have to set aside $5m/year for NIL football player sponsorship." Is that legal? I dunno. But it'd be crazy smart.

Isn't that essentially what Nike has done with Oregon for their collective "Division Street"? Also, everything's legal until it isn't so yolo

Absolutely legal.
And if ND isn't going to do pay to play collectives
This is their "ethical" path.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

If they stuck with UA, I would not be at all surprised. That's just been my hunch all along.

As others have said, if there is a significant NIL component to the UA deal that actually moves the needle, this makes sense.

If there is no NIL component, this is a pure money grab at best or a money grab plus Jack looking out for his son at worst.

How about "You have to set aside $5M/year to employ football player parents as 'brand ambassadors?"

cargo khaki shorts are always acceptable

Cargo shorts made of the modern poly is ok.
Cotton cargo shorts make you look like a slob when the pockets sag and warp after a wash.

Neither are very good, but one looks ok and the other is good for painting the fence in.

Yup. Listened today. All 3 now think it’s UA and that NIL will likely play a role. No surprise at all.

As long as this means NIL for incoming freshman then I'm all for it.

I’ve learned to always expect the disappointing option with Notre Dame athletics.
