First off who does the school think they are to tell him what shoes he can and cannot wear. Maybe if he was aware of this before he signed to the team. The school is just upset cause they lost that $$$. I say loyality to family is more important than the school. After all, is the school gonna change their mind about something just because he doesn’t like it. DEFINITELY….. NOT!

So for that, Jordan needs to furnish that school with shoes, and endorsements. He could have told his son it was okay to put the shoes on.

Wow! So you would assault someone over the shoes they are wearing? What is really going on with our society?

Ok, so I bet it’s not the shoe that you’re loyal to. I bet it’s not the company (Adidas) that you’re loyal to. So let me guess…..humm…..it’s the $3 million dollars that you want the school to keep. Ok so let’s go with that assumption that you’re assaulting a student over money.

But instead of taking it out on the student why don’t we focus on Adidas and see what their motive is. Is Adidas’ motive to support a college in their pursuit to educate students? Or is Adidas’ motive to get advertising? Since Adidas is a “for profit” company – I will make another assumption that their motive is advertising.

When did universities become billboards? I thought universities were institutions of higher learning (this is a rhetorical question)? So instead of Lil Jordan focusing on his education first and sports second – now he has additional pressure of the public scrutinizing his foot apparel.

I’m really SMH at how much society is dumbing down over sports, music, and other entertainment. Let’s start a movement to bring common sense back!!!

Is this really news? Should we be that upset about this school losing a SHOE deal? I thought colleges were about education not advertising?!

Ok, so now that Adidas has freed up that money they were sending to this school. How about they donate – yes DONATE (not have a contract for advertising) to a school that is struggling financially in order to keep our children in college. There are many deserving universities, especially HBCU’s that are in need of financial assistance.

THANKS ADIDAS – WE’RE LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR SUPPORT!!!

In addition – instead of us dogging out Lil Jordan let us remember that EVERY student on that team should be able to wear his choice of shoes. Stop allowing these corporations to buy us! Ya’ll wilding out over this young man standing up saying he needs to take one for the team – take what?! What he owes to this team is hard work, practice, team spirit – let’s remember it’s just a sport! Keep things in perspective!

Don’t hate. If your dad was Jordan I’m sure you would have done the EXACT same thing! ALL of you!

Honestly the school did take a hit after loosing a 3 million dollar deal with Adidas, but think about it……He is Jordan’s son and he can create a shoe for his team and also have his father endorse them!

If I was his son I would have had the whole team wear a FRESH pair of J’s. I guarantee UCF will be sponsored by Jordan at some point

This guy is arrogant. He knew he was going to an Adidas school and knew what would happen if he wore Jordans during NCAA events. He shouldn’t have gone to school there. Now he is just creating a huge distraction for the team. What a bum….

Let’s keep in mind, the team could have easily cut, red shirted, or otherwise not dressed out MJ’s seed… obviously they have something to gain by his presence as well… this story is always worded very deceptively. don’t be fooled.
