[QUOTE="GTFLETCH, post: 255401, member: 1668"] No... What I have said is that UA may have told AD Bobblehead Bobinski that there UA gear s not selling to support a multi-million dollar contract and thus lowballed GT and that Nike has said they would pay GT what they are paying WSU or Oregon St (2.2M) (Nothing close to what they pay UGA) and thus if we lose the RA deal and the 2.3M plus per year I hope that Adidas will sign us to 2.5M to 3.5M a year. I have heard RA was willing to go up to 5M per year, but I guess everyone is hell bent on taking less money and leaving RA. So it would seem to me that since UA & Bobble head has spoke, UA went with GA State at 400K a year it seems like a good move for UA! I really hope the new AD can get Nike to pay us what Clemson gets 2.8M, but I am thinking that Adidias may be willing to get us at 2.5M as that is what they have Mississippi St for. Below is a link from July 2016 with the top deals. Our RA deal is at 2.3M and is ranked at 47. We could almost breakeven if we get a WSU nike deal as it will start about 2.2M and rise... So with a new AD we may be able to keep the same income flow, just not increase it like some teams have recently.
