Row over Jordan Jr's shoes...

More comes to light...

As a result of Jordan Jr wearing Jordan branded shoes, UCF will not be sponsored by Adidas in future. As they are in the final year of a 5 year contract, it could cost the University big-time unless Nike and their Jordan brand step up to help fill the void...which is likely IMO

ESPN: http://linky.com.au/0rwqh

"A fight over the shoes Michael Jordan's son will wear at the University of Central Florida has cost the school any future sponsorship with adidas.

"The University of Central Florida has chosen not to deliver on their contractual commitment to adidas," adidas spokeswoman Andrea Corso wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "As a result we have chosen not to continue our relationship with them moving forward."

on a side note, how awesome would it be if we could get him down here in the NBL? it would do wonders for exposure, and not to mention his dad coming down to visit!

Looks like a failure by both the school and the kid.
Surely it was made clear up front that the school had a sposorship and he would be wearing what he was told.
If he had a problem he shouldn't have signed.

And it's not jsut shoes. LC says the contract is to supply shoes and clothing. Is he wearing Adidas apparel and Nike shoes?

.... Unless its a new contract that was signed after the kid signed?

Its dumb anyway - why would he want to attract even MORE attention to himself when there's no way he will be able to emulate his father's feats.
