Adidas is doing too little, too late. I've seen these polos in person and they're definitely what they look like in the photos.
Adidas apparently thought it was a smart idea to wait until the time the contract was up to put Michigan in actual Maize
Goddamn, that's freaky.

simple...great sideline polo.
Edit: Still would be better with a swoosh (still not sold on UA for Michigan - love them for schools with less history, hate them for ND)
So the contract is up?
Could we potentially see new football uniforms this season? (Like, Nike or Under Armour, not completely new uniforms)
It expires after the 2015-16 season.
Please God no more Adiduhs!

I wonder if that banner ripped mid way through the visit.
if I knew photoshop, this would go on my Adidas banner:

I just want to go back to Nike. The first jersey that I ever owned as a kid was a Jarrett Irons jersey with the hologram block Ms on the shoulders. I still have it and its still bad ass.
Think that has to do more with the era than with anything unique to nike

Behind the closed and dead-bolted door to the super secret boardroom at Adidas, amidst wailing and nashing of teeth, one chant grew to a semi-roar: "Go with Nike, Go with Nike, Please Dear God, Go with Nike". It went on like 10 Million times...
or rewrite history!
Definitely the most catchy of the Disney cartoon songs.
One of my favorite cartoons.
That would be a great banner for the garage or man cave.
Who is at the top and did they agree to be part of the presentation? Looks like Denard but cant be sure.
Yeah, I thought it was 'nard too!

Between UA, Nike, and Adidas, the brand with the lowest quality gear is Adidas. I had a Michigan Nike shirt last years while my $90 Michigan sweatshirt didn't last three months. Also, they just don't look good on TV.
True. My Fab Five era (20-years old) Nike basketball shorts are still comfortable and haven't worn out. There is definitely something to be said for quality over design aesthetic. When you go the other direction, you get H&M...

Been a strict Nike guy for three decades. My son wears UA for his AAU team. Most of the AAU teams we play are dressed head toe in UA gear - especially the coaches which I think is UA's clear strategy. And I think it'll work.
Many youth sports players will tell you UA makes a better shoe. My son convinced me to try them and they were much better than what Nike had to offer, IMO. First non-Nike shoe in 29 years. I'm staying with UA.
UA shoes are the worst ever, there cheap and don't last
Agreed. They are the worst. I remember the gear that used to be returned at my old job....mostly UA and mostly their shoes. Uncomfortable and fell apart
It doesn't seem like you're agreeing.
Under Armour shoes are cheap compared to Nike. I've tried multiple UA styles and they've all been ok. I've never played in them because they don't feel comfortable standing and walking in.
Seeing Brady Hoke in Adidas gear on Michigans sideline made my jeans get more baggy.

Though my jeans are never baggy, I'm cocksure Nike would be better.
So glad you are in third place in this race! Nike/UA are 1 and 2.
