Seems every Nike school in the NCAA is wearing them. Wonder if it's part of their contract?

It's a swoosh thing.  All of the Adidas teams have shirts that say "Made in March".

So is there a contract obligation associated with it? I'm wondering if it's obligatory or simply by individual team choice, because to me it seems a wee bit tacky that everyone is wearing the same shirt.

I don't know for sure, but I'd bet my 401K that it's contractual.  If you sign with NIke, they own you.  They can deck you out pink polka dots if they want, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Just noticed that Oregon isn't 'Always Reppin'. Think they've got their own arrangement with the Swoosh?

In all fairness, I just noticed that Duke isn't Reppin either, tonight at least.

First time I saw them, I was not wearing my glasses so I thought it read "Always Rappin'". I put them on and saw it was "Reppin'" which makes just a little more sense. Then I remembered who the clothing sponsor was. It is all just one big commercial.
