Stay tradition. Don not need flashy. Do not need alternate uniforms anyway, get rid of them.

Adidas=more money. Nike does not pony up the cash for dear old Nebraska. The main reason is the potential in selling shoes. Our lack of big urban cities and population hurt shoe sales. Addidas is

Adidas NU unis the previous few years - disappointing. Do not understand trend toward smaller, uglier, wrinkly #s difficult to read on TV. Return to large numbers of yesteryear's 1994-97 unis when we were champs. Best ones ever. Agree - stiff-arm Phil Knight's anything goes for a buck empire.

Recruits 'might' look at uniforms but the N on the helmet means more. The Nike at uniforms are ugly. Just look at some of Oregon's overdone uniforms. I like the Adidas fan wear.

Their alternate designs have been awful.
ReplyThe school says they get more money from adidas, but there's no amount of compensation that can make up for the atrocious alts. Plus the regular jerseys have that awful stretch mark looking crap on them. Their brand is the laughing stock of college football right now. The fan gear sucks too.
ReplyThe special uniform games have made the Huskers look ridiculous. One of the uniforms you couldn't even read the numbers.
Reply1. Recruiting 2. I own Nike stock 3. Adidas has fallen behind 4. JUST DO IT!
ReplyIn the eyes of recruits, Adidas is not as "cool" as Nike and UA. Adidas is losing its footing in college football with ND and now possibly UM bailing on them.
ReplyNike is clearly the best option. Former Husker Paul Miles reps for them. No brainer
ReplyThink Huskers can do much better with someone else
Replytwo words...Under Armour
ReplyAdidas=3rd class! NU deserves better!
ReplyJust look at the design differences. I know Adidas has recently added some former Nike exec's but until they come up with something exciting they are nothing more than another dying company.
ReplyUnless its soccer Adidas is garbage. Kids don't like it its 3rd tier aperal at best. Nebraska deserves better preferably Nike but I'd gladly take underarmor as well
ReplyAdapt or Die
Replythere is better
ReplyWho even still wears Adidas? Nike and even Under Armour are way ahead of the game. Even Michigan was smart enough to move forward and leave Adidas for Nike.
Replycheerleaders change their uniforms more often, basketball, baseball, probably bowling. Why not?
ReplyChange could result in more future choice on every renewal of contracts. We can be concern that the base uniform will always be there.
ReplyThey really do not care about this side of the pond. I work with someone from the netherlands and he said as long as they have European soccer they could care less about American Football.
ReplyI'd like to see them switch to Nike or Under Armour.
ReplyNike designs are more innovative and just plain look better. I believe Nike resonates more as a brand than Adidas.
ReplyAdidas alts are terrible
ReplyAlthough I do not like the Nike brand as much (maybe because I have been an adidas guy since I could remember) I think their uniform designs seem to be better, colors seems better, and the kids these days wear more Nike than anything.
ReplyLimited sense of style.
ReplyI really want to see the black cleats return with the black tees under the jersey and black accessories, we look too much like Wisconsin, and we look soft with the red and white...what happened to scarlet and cream??? And stop with the alternate unis.....Oregon has cornered the market on that
