Title: JUMP GEAR
Post by: NVExel on April 27, 2006, 05:24:46 PM

Being that KSU is a nike school and Hugs has been with nike and jump for many years, will KSU switch to the jump gear?  Hugs and MJ premiered it at UC and UC has had it for many years.

Expect an announcement about a new deal with Nike in a few weeks. The Nike execs flew in to Manhattan, met with Huggs and Weiser and went to a football practice to meet Prince.

To add to Fatty's comments.  MJ still holds sway as to who gets to wear his name gear.  If Huggs wants it we would get it.  Nike is doing a major rush with K-State to keep it NIKE.  Seems that the color purple is hot nationwide and with Huggs and Prince debuting this fall they would rather see the swoosh!  Plus..the school down the river switched to addidas so Nike really wants to bring it in the heartland.  Expect Nike to open up the wallet on this! :thumbsup:
