News Michigan shows off its new Adidas look

[Chicky]

Last summer, Adidas signed Michigan to the largest known college licensing agreement in the country.

The deal is for eight years and $60 million, and expectations will be appropriately outsized.

Today will be the first public evaluation, when the company introduces its new Michigan football jerseys.

The best part is that there is a sticky strip so the jerseys won't come untunked in the middle of games. One of my pet peeves.

I hate it already...then again, I hate the color combo to begin with...I mean seriously, is Maize really a color?

You're making me want to take this to PSH radio Tuesday.

And yes it is

The color maize, in the English language, usually refers to a color that is similar to yellow; it is named for the cereal of the same name—maize. In public usage, maize can be applied to a variety of shades, ranging from light yellow to a dark shade that borders on orange.
"Maize" is one of the two official colors of the University of Michigan, although the actual shade of yellow used has varied over time.

So not only did they hire WVU's coach, but he brought his white jerseys along too?

Yeah, give it up already. It's freaking yellow, and be happy with that.


Not that Ohio State in any less pretentios with that Scarlett stuff. I thought the scarlett letter was an A, not an O, but whatever. It's red, ok?


What happened to naming colors what they actually are, like blue and orange?
