[QUOTE="GTLorenzo, post: 302858, member: 359"] Red is right. I was at a function with someone very high up in the AA last week. They indicated two things. First, it is about the kids and their swag to a large degree. Uniforms, work out clothes, walking around clothes, etc. They want good quality stuff with a name brand in it. Not Russell. He actually stated that our coaches are recruiting with an arm tied behind their back with Russell and that it is amazing that we recruit as well as we do. For those of you who say it is all the same stuff and kids are shallow, you're wrong. It does matter. Will it lead to a bunch of 5 *s signing with us? Not necessarily, but it will help. Other thing is stock prices are down for the big three, so this isn't the best time to negotiate. Throw in border taxes and other uncertainties and we may do a shorter deal so we can relook in a few years. A year ago would've been better timing to negotiate. [/QUOTE]
