Jim Hackett gets sneak peak at Nike unis

Submitted by Brendan71388 on
Apparently Jim Hackett has seen the Nike Jordan brand unis, and confirmed they do have the Jumpman logo on them. Not sure how I feel about a basketball logo on the football unis, but I'm all for whatever helps recruiting. I'll reserve judgement until I see them for myself. http://detroitsportsnation.com/college-sports/ddrysdale/interim-ad-hack…

People in this thread are apparently too young to remember that Nike itself was once a basketball brand in the early/mid 1980s and had hardly any presence in football.

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.

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.

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.

Amazing how a symbol holds more power than any of these alternate jerseys coming out. Sometimes it's the smallest things that make the biggest impact. It's just too bad we have to wait a season, but I think we have all been spoiled this past year! Gives us something to think about, talk about, and spectate to death.

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.
