Do you think if UofL basketball switched to Nike that the overall recruiting would improve? Most of the top recruits are with Nike/Jordan brand. Even Pitino, with all of UofL's facilities, history, resources, and him being a top big name coach could never bring in top rated guys- or at least with any consistency.
I'm not talking about trying to emulate duke/uk and becoming one and done U, but adding a couple of top rated guys every year with a mix of talented multi-year players seems to be the way to go. It might be a moot point right now because the Adidas contract is still ongoing for several more years, but just wanted to hear your opinions on this matter.
