So I Got a Bone to Pick About Our Corporate Sponsors...

"Both Adidas and Dish pay UT handsomely to be our red-headed stepchild sponsors."

OP needs to adjust the colors on his TV, that is orange-headed stepchild sponsors. :)

Surprised there's been no argument about black jerseys yet. Curve ball on the uniform talk.

Funny how we haven't heard back from the OP. I bet he feels like an idiot after the Dish Network comment....

My god. The fact that the public can read these idiotic messages amazes me. This is like saying the 4 star RB you just got sucks because he isn't a 5 star.

Plenty of that crap floats around, too.

Real brilliant for OP to be insulting people who give the AD money, too.

Back in the 90's, it seemed to me that Nike just couldn't quite get the correct shade of "BIG ORANGE" that Adidas is able to create. I think that's why CPF went with Adidas.

I think it speaks more to our program's prestige having these "second tier" sponsors.

If these sponsors are second class then they'll want to make smart business moves and spend money wisely. By picking us they are showing that we are worthy of that.

I'm guessing OP's account has been deleted now that he's flaunted to the world that he doesn't know who Charlie Ergen is.

Speaking of which, Pilot is also a second tier sponsor. Why aren't we sponsored by Chevron!

Good call. First Tennessee is slumming it too, can we not get Bank of America?

As to Nike vs. Adidas...I don't really think one is superior to the other, overall. I probably own more Adidas stuff, honestly (tees, Climacool, tennis and golf shoes, golf shirts). I don't quite see why some people care so much. It isn't like we are out there in Reeboks.

This site is literally the only place where I see people who like Adidas more than Nike. Everyone I know would rather have Nike. My friends here at UT want Nike, and even my friends at Mississippi State (who give Adidas much more variety and freedom) want Nike. It's not even about on-field uniforms, the apparel they make is just so much better. That swoosh sells to fans and recruits.

Addressing the uniforms, people on this site automatically cry "oregon" when thinking of a Nike uniform, but what many people forget is that Nike makes damn good looking conventional uniforms as well. Look at Alabama, they have crisp, modern, yet traditional pro combats that are just as cool as Oregon's bright yellow and green.

It does matter what anyone on here or students want. At the end of the day the only thing that matters is that Adidas pays the AD more than Nike will. People need to stop whining about it and just accept it. Thier products and their uni's are just fine.

Adidas has been sponsoring UT for how long and people think that complaining on a MSG board or on a bar stool is actually going to change it is what baffles me. The OP will never be able to live this one down IMO and deserving for being such a putz.

I'm glad we aren't Nike or under armor. Adidas makes great products.

The Dish Network comparison was just stupid. But comparing Nike to Adidas is like comparing Kobe to Lebron...Kobe is just way better, and always will be :D
