I wish I could find a list of universities that they sponsored, because I'm sure they weren't doing it for just Louisville and University of Miami.

DaveTV1 Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 I would be afraid if I were any of those schools that they might get the death penalty or other coaches arrested or fired. Adidas wasn't just doing this for certain schools. We've seen the biggest coach fired today over it, and with the trouble he's had I doubt he ever sets foot on a college basketball court. What's weird is Dave Bliss has a job with a Christian school. https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/report-disgraced-former-baylor-coach-dave-bliss-hired-by-las-vegas-high-school/ . He might get a job somewhere if Bliss did. I'm hearing he maybe hired as a consultant by his son in Minnesota. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
