http://www.oregonlive.com/playbooks-profits/index.ssf/2015/05/post_56.h… Nike spokesman Greg Rossiter said in an email, "we did host the University of Michigan on campus last week, as we do many athletes, teams and leagues on a regular basis." A university spokesman said, "we are doing our due diligence by holding conversations with several potential partners. We have no timetable for our decision."

You know, just from a glimpse at the formatting here and I am already irritated because whoever did this is far better with Visio and process mapping than I am. Indeed, I will sometimes hear, "Lorne, you need to document these processes a little more..." and this thread will serve as some odd reminder of that recurring statement.

I would gladly wear American Girl clothes if it meant winning a title and defeating the arch enemies.  Alas, we will just have to get better.  Clothes matter not.

If Michigan were to make a change and actually end the current contract that expires July 31, 2016 that decision will have to be made in the next 2-5 months. The University of Michigan and the new provider would need as much lead time as possible to perform research and analysis, branding/marketing, design, production, and delivery. It would be very interesting to see when Tennessee and Wisconsin made their exit strategy known.

This horse isn't just dead, it's like full mummification...it's so dead it saw the Cubs win a title, it's so dead witnessed the birth of John McCain, it's so dead it remembers a time before we started talking about this...
