I think it’s just shoes but it would be nice if they could sport the jerseys as well. Michigan’s uniforms were pretty sweet.
JD just told me on Twitter that the deal is “all-inclusive,” meaning uniforms and shoes.
And yes, Nike sells Jumpman gear to fans. For example:

OU signed a Jumpman deal in November, and they’ll start selling Jumpman-branded gear in June.
Maybe I’m just too old to get it, but why would we want to put a North Carolina basketball player logo on our Houston basketball uniforms? And why would we want to put any basketball player logo on our football uniforms?
Recruiting. Kids love Jordan.
This is pretty sweet for our players. Worked hard and finally get recognized.
So, does anyone have the specifics on this deal? If i remember correctly, we have to pay Nike to wear their brand. Are we getting paid by Jordan now?
I don’t think this is for football, only basketball.
Nobody looks at that logo and immediately thinks, “North Carolina”. It is one of the most recognized brand all over the world. It’s a big deal.
Never wanted Jordan brand shoes… until now.
Wow. We are on our way. And yes football would be great too.
cant wait to buy Jordan brand UH gear!
Hope we can get something like this.

Good grief
That would become my game shoe for all sports.
Please send a “thanks for your contributions” pair to Zanna, WVB, Rob Gray and Devin Davis. They earned it!
I’ve never bought any Jordan branded stuff in my life but you better believe I’ll be buying some now!
Let’s hope football’s on the menu later
