Kum and go would have been great, really missed an opportunity here.
commercial jersey patches on college jerseys
- Thread starter squeezebox_1
- Start date
Nike has been around forever. ANF is Farm Bureau. Why not others. MLB does it.
Will this be team-wide or just a certain player and his sponsor?
Herbstreit: "John Smith, #33, the Texaco running back for Texas A&M just went downhill at top speed into the line of scrimmage. Did I mention that he is a downhill runner?". Kinda rolls right off the tongue. 
Can the players switch out their patches at halftime if they are having a good game? Ya know, after they make a phone call from the locker room to see who the highest bidder is at the break. Kidding, not kidding.

Kidding, not kidding.I'm assuming it will be like the NBA, a patch for the entire team.
Ugh, I'd hate to see a commercial patch on our jerseys. Always felt like college was a place that shouldn't be touched by that. But NIL has kind of thrown everything out of the window.
What has Nike and Addidas been for decades?
Good question! Much easier to come up with bad ones (like Dude wipes, and whatever that peyronie disease medicine is).
It sounds more like an NIL opportunity for players . Example CC22 with a State farm patch. Can you imagine what her jersey would look like with all 9 or 10 patches.....
Well they provide the gear for the teams that wear their logo I believe so there's a quid pro quo
Too bad Hooters is dying off. The Rice Owls, sponsored by another owl, makes sense.
The starting running back on an SEC team isn’t named “John Smith.”
patch must work with Iowa's color scheme or a deal breaker

Surprised it took this long actually.
Hopefully it's something cool. Please not Mediacom.

Bit of a strange question to ask, it's their gear that we're using. Same with the riddell helmets the team uses. Of course their logo will be on there. That's much different than a random business patch affixed to the jersey.
They manufacture the jerseys. They are not direct sponsors paying the schools money to have their logo there. They simply provide the jerseys and put their logo on it.
How long until all American sports go the European soccer route?
Actually, all major pro sports do it except the NFL, and I would guess they'll hop on the jersey ad train sooner than later. Don't love it, but it's barely a footnote in the mess that is sports and the country in general right now.
A couple years ago, one of the sponsors on Cubs' radio broadcasts was NorthShore Adult Diapers. I'm not kidding. The boadcasters had quite a time reading those ads.
Yes, its Nikes gear for example and those are deals struck with the team and not players. Of course there could be conflicts. Example CC22 had a gatorade contract, and Iowa has Powerade as a sponsor. I think she had to hide it on the bench or something along those lines. It would be interesting if she had a gatorade patch on her jersey and Iowa had Powerade as a sponsor.....
Whut? Nike absolutely pays the schools it has a logo on.
I'd love to see each position group have their own sponsors. "The Iowa offensive line sponsored by Caterpillar paving the way on that long TD run for Moulton, brought to you by Mercedes-Benz". lmao
