Chances of dropping Adidas after our contract is up?

UA is still offering massive boatloads of cash to big-time programs to increase their footprint and it's working. Auburn, Notre Dame, SCAR and Utah have all had pretty good success with them.

I'm still no big fan of Adidas' offerings in football, but am fine sticking with them if they give us an offer commensurate with how important we are to them. The main reason we've always been with them is that Nike wouldn't give us as big of a deal. If Adidas isn't willing to give us a MASSIVE deal, I'd say forget it.

 
Adidas has good stuff. Favorite pair of running I owned were adidas. Wore adidas cleats for football and I liked those. As long as they are putting out stuff that kids like that's all I'm worried about. 3 stripe life

You may but kids/teens drive this stuff b/c parents buy them what they want and Adidas is hot right now and kids/teens want it. But, if you're a youngin and you like Nike its not unheard of.

Not here. But this is Oregon and Nike is king here even though Adidas USA is headquartered in Portland.

 
The answer to the thread title appears to be slim and none.

Sounds like Adidas is making a big push and everything I've read says a new contract/extension is expected in the next couple months.

NU's Adidas current contract expires after the 2017-2018 academic year. The extensions or contracts with other athletic companies are usually announced about a year before that contract expiration. I would expect the extension with Adidas to be announced this June/July.
