GrantNKY Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Incorrect, he signed with Reebok coming out of Kentucky. I thought Adidas owned Reebok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKYFootballer Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Wall. He was with Reebok when he was a rookie. I think he just switched to Adidas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalWildcat Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I thought Adidas owned Reebok? 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.

Getslow Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 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.

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.

GrantNKY Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcjkbt Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 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)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
