If ADIDAS made half way decent products they wouldn't have these issues.

Ultra boosts and NMD's are the nest sneakers out there right now. They make great stuff.

Incorrect, he signed with Reebok coming out of Kentucky.

 

I thought Adidas owned Reebok?

Wall.

 

He was with Reebok when he was a rookie. I think he just switched to Adidas.

Nike through and through for me.

Yep you're correct, they bought them in 2005 for 3.8 Billion. However, I don't think that they would've wanted the #1 draft pick to sign with Reebok and wear that instead of Adidas if it were the same case as what this is.

The fact that the NCAA didn't know this investigation was going on until today is hilarious. The NCAA has been stoking this fire for years by refusing to get the shoe companies out of amateur sports.

 

Now they're going to have a lot of work to do.

Ugh... Just when you think the Zigs are out of mind. Y'all almost got it.

"If you're involved in this, it's better for you to call us, then us to call you."

 

I'd have mic dropped right there...

Wall is now with Nike just without a signature shoe. Was wearing Kobe AD's at the end of last year. He did sign with Reebok out of college and had a signature shoe and then switched over to Adidas wear he also had a signature shoe. That contract expired last year.

Ugh... Just when you think the Zigs are out of mind. Y'all got it right.

Right up until last year when he signed a contract with Nike.

Nike through and through for me.

I was the same way. Go try on a pair of ultra boosts though and tell me Adidas makes bad products. You can't.

They brought down FIFA, they can certainly burn AAU to the ground.

Ugh... Just when you think the Zigs are out of mind. Y'all almost got it.

 

The Zigs might be the ugliest shoe I've ever seen a big company produce, especially for a signature shoe for someone like John Wall...

Cue "God's Gonna Cut You Down" by Johnny Cash

 

Also, I'm thankful I go to a mid-major school:banana:

If Adidas had just paid money directly to a kid's family for him to attend a certain school, would there have been a crime committed (as opposed to an NCAA violation)?
