Rutgers new weight room facility and...Jordan brand?
New article out yesterday talking about Rutgers' new weight room complex, which claims to finally be "a Big Ten facility."
But in the scond picture of the slideshow, it shows guys wearing Rutgers Basketball track jackets that are clearly Jordan brand and have the B1G logo on the sleeve.
Did I miss something? Rutgers clearly isn't good enough to trot around with the Jumpman logo on their their chest.
:Get off my lawn!:
Florida also had Jordan warmup jackets for their bowl. They had to pay for it whereas Michigan is outfitted by Jordan and paid to wear it.
Would a school pay extra $$$ just for a logo, and the logo is made by the same company?

It's cheaper that way and can also be used at satellite camps.
I'm pretty sure that's not Jumpman. Looks like a pin to hold on the white identifying tags.

I like WD's explanation.
Those are Fordans.
They should be wearing Milicic brand if anything
Kind of hard to square this with the fact that they just signed a big Adidas contract. Not so clear to me that that's a Jumpman logo (seems to be an amputee if so).
Are we sure it isn't just the Chinese symbol for "man"?

Could've sworn they just signed a deal with K Swiss
Rutgers has 3-9 different apparel contracts.
I predict you will be negged 2-10 times
He had the wrong rival.
Nah man it was British Knights
Rutgers Player: "With our brand new weight room, we will be SO BUFF while getting our asses kicked playing floosball!"
Coach Ash: "It's football. We play football. Fuck, we're doomed."
Coach Ash: I know, let's invite 200 recruits to watch us get slaughtered.
Coach Ash: I don't like this coach who is better than me whose team will destroy mine. Let me partner with another coach who is better than me whose team will destroy mine.
New weight room, nice! At least something about their football program will be B1G quality.
Good for them. Now each player's goal is to bench press 78 lbs. 0 times.
This is the most Rutgers football photo ever.
What's Ozzy Osbourne doing in the Rutgers weight room??
There might be a question of whether or not he can pass the drug test...
Rutgers is the North Korea of the B1G
North Korea is kinda scary. Rutgers is not.
But I don't want either in the B1G.
...the nation-state equivalent of the short bus.
A short bus with nuclear weapons under the control of the functional equivalent of a 12 year old.
Why would you rip on North Korea like that?
Those jackets look pretty slick.
Because you may have to dodge Tony Soprano's gunfire for "disappointing" in a game else be buried in the pine barrens. Unless The Russian pulls you outta the car trunk first and hands you an automatic and some ketchup packets.
As slick as a barbed wire tattoo, a spray tan, a pair of mirror-lens sunglasses, a wife beater, and copious amounts of hair gel?
You are looking live at Rutger's new training facility.

That's a lot of flair!
We're supposed to read this in our best Brent Musberger voice, right?
I literally laughed out loud.
LMAO yeah......
The jacket says Rutgers Basketball on it.
That's not a Jumpman logo. If you click through to the article and take a look at the image on their website, it's pretty clear that whatever it is, it's not a Jumpman logo.
Having said that, it was cool that Michigan was the first football school to wear the Jumpman logo and all, but I don't think we were ever guaranteed any kind of exclusivity. Eventually, it will become as common as the swoosh.
Our next National Championship football title.
North Carolina will wear Jumpman for 2017 football
Our athletes will wear Jumpman 2.0 or later.
What are you seeing that I am not?
The Poconos?
During the 4/20 parties. We missed you and wondered where you wondered off to.
Look at those sweet moves...
2 million dollar upgrade, I would hate to have seen how it looked before hand. Looks like it's in a basement and things equipment packed in there.
Meh, as long as they feel good about themselves.
Hate to see them uniformless.
Do you know what a jumpman logo looks like?
I just wanted to add that our AD and staff could beat up their Rutgers counterparts
If you can't beat em.. Join em.
