ISU Apparel deal?

There is an underarmour and Nike outlet store here in gretna(Omaha) Nike has a lot of decent clothing. Under armour has a bunch of unwearable rainbow garbage clothes for outrageous prices. No thanks UA

For those of you not excited by under armour, they just signed up UCLA for 15 yrs at $280 million total. $18.6 million per.

juuuuuust a bit better than our 400k from Nike.

And UCLA is juuuuust a bit more valuable of a program than ISU is. Not that order of magnitude better, but we're not hitting 18 Mil with anyone.

What is included in the deal? Does it include rights for UA to produce and sell UCLA products?
 
ISU is not getting UCLA but i have to imagine when they're up for a new contract their will be more offered than the current 400k a year were currently getting from Nike.

Guess who doesn't give a ****? This guy.
They can go with underarmor if they want, I guess I will just have old apparel going forward.
Nothing to do with brand loyalty, just rarely see UA clothing that looks good.

I just went to Cincinnati's Online Store. They have some good gear on there. They signed a 10 year 47 million dollar deal.

Colorado State got a 5 year 11 million dollar deal from Under Armour.

The fact that we get $400k from Nike is inexcusable from a Big 12 school.

Still wondering where the value is for UA. Is it mostly in selling UCLA branded UA products? Or is there enough power in the UCLA name to sell UA products without the UCLA branding on the products?

Having a large deal in the PAC 12 with a big name school like UCLA allows them to go head to head with Nike big name in Oregon on the west coast
 
But UA isn't cool enough for some people here...

Stop judging off of the UA the 6th grader on your block is wearing. There's plenty of quality, good-looking UA sports apparel.

Amazing how some people will see those numbers and still say "But I like Nike more so ISU shouldn't try to go to UA"

When ISU got the Nike contract it was a big deal and better than the contract before. That being said Nike has done well on ISU gear. I am sure the athletic dept will make the deal that is best for the school.

Iowa State, meanwhile, signed a seven-year contract with Nike in March 2011. That deal should net at least $3.1 million for Cyclone athletics before the contract expires in June 2018.

...



Iowa State's contract allows it to order up to $265,000 in merchandise, of which $200,000 is for football. Iowa State also gets shoes and equipment at 10 percent below the wholesale cost, and apparel and uniforms at Nike wholesale prices.
"There are different ways for things to be quantified," Pollard said. "Some schools get cash, but then the apparel they get has to be bought at retail prices.
"Some others don't get cash, but they're buying uniforms at cost. People pump their chest in different ways, but that's not to mean there aren't some disparities."

I do a lot of work in the apparel industry and UA has been the hottest thing for damn near 5 years. It hits all demographics, and kids love it. UA is a good, good thing.
 
NetfixandClone posted this link in the uniforms thread and I thought it fit here as well

I'm one of the older guys on here and I don't really care who the brand is. If it's Nike, they better come up with a much larger amount of money, or try to get in with UA. The article says what recruits like. If the recruits like the newer, flashier uniforms, then get newer, flashier uniforms.
