Ehh kind of a tease but oh well.
I'll wait til next offseason to over-analyze the uniforms.
3 more hours!

It was Sonny Vaccaro who made it a basketball brand. The signing of MJ went a long ways towards doing that.

She might have married the cute boy next door, but that was after she got knocked up by the travelling salesman.

There's no wrath like the wrath of a scorned goddess.
Sure would explain a lot about the last 8 years or so.

Sadly decapitated, but she's still a head turner.

They paid $5000 every single game in fines on Jordan's behalf for breaking the NBA uniform rules, and capitalized on the buzz that created with a clever ad campaign. Always thought that was a stroke of genius.

Obvious difference being that the jumpman logo has an actual basketball in it. But, yes, it's just a logo. If Derek Jeter can wear the logo on baseball cleats, I don't see how it matters that we'll wear it on our football uniforms.

AFAIK neither Phil Knight nor Bill Bowerman ever even played basketball or football. Bowerman was a badass track coach, though.

They were known primarily as a basketball brand in the 1980s. That is an objective fact. What they started off as in 1971 doesn't help you here. Try to bring it a little harder next time.

That is the quesiton. I can see the Jordan logo working on the shoe. If they put it on the jersey it's going to be weird.

The Michigan I grew up and remember wore Russell Athletic jerseys.

Only 2 more hours and we will have so many more worthwhile things to talk about.
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:35 PM ^
Where do you live? Game doesn't start for another 3 hours where I live...

Jumpman is more than a "just a basketball logo" now. It's iconic. Dez Bryant wears jumpman cleats. So did Derek Jeter. David Price currently does as well.
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:30 PM ^
It's been making football cleats for a while now and people that pay attention to shoes have noticed. These have been worn by Michael Crabtree and Earl Thomas respectively.

He's not a bum. He's sorry-assed. Ask Richard Sherman.

Remember how Adidas put ND in their huge commercials? Well Jordan brand has some amazing ads. Imagine Michigan themed versions of these:
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:32 PM ^
WHY CAN'T WE SEE THEM???
WD! Find pictures and post them!
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:37 PM ^
I can't imagine what WD would do to see those pictures.
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:41 PM ^
I bet he would cut his own pinky off.
September 3rd, 2015 at 6:40 PM ^
or maybe his pinky toe?
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:44 PM ^
Imagine what he'd do to put his hands... er... touch one.
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:35 PM ^
If it helps with recruiting... whatever. If I do get ANY gear with ANY nike logo, the stitch ripper comes out. Just like it does with the New Era logo on caps.
I care about Michigan, not Nike.
September 3rd, 2015 at 5:35 PM ^
It's like having the power of Michael Jordan actually INFUSED into your uniform.
Ok wait, no it's just a logo, sorry.

I wish that I had half the amount of time in any given day that you guy's have when you guy's go on and on about trivial things like what logo is on a jersey.
September 3rd, 2015 at 8:15 PM ^
It's just a logo. It's how you recognize the brand. I'm not sure if the complainers are aware but Jordan has had his hands in other sports than basketball for well over a decade now.

but we're not actually having to deal with all the bad stuff that comes with him as a person. It's a brand that we want for the recognition it provides. Nothing more.
