U OF M Signs 8-Year Deal With Adidas - Local News Story - WDIV Detroit

Adidas gave Michigan a $6.5 million signing bonus, $3.8 million in cash annually, with the school holding a five-year option when it expires following the 2016-17 season.

The contract includes shoes and equipment for all 25 Michigan teams begining in 2008

Anyone have an idea how much cash we get for our contract???

I'm surprised Nike let Michigan get away. They get a lot of national exposure and have a huge following.

And to answer your question, we probably get a few bucks from Nike.

Does anyone have an estimate for ISU's contract? At $6.5 million and $3.8 million per year it's another case of the rich getting richer, but I am just curious what the gap is between the rich and us is.
