@@independentaquaman7424right, if the WNBA doesn't take any real action to address the issue or fix their BS before next season then maybe Clark's family and kind representation she has will help decide to leave WNBA. If that happens they lose enough of things like sponsorships, supply contracts ect. that they just wouldn't survive.
Nike’s blatant disregard for Caitlin Clark’s extraordinary impact on the WNBA is nothing short of a monumental failure. Despite her ability to triple viewership and drive substantial revenue, Nike remains shackled by unfounded fears of backlash from a segment of the league that resents her meteoric rise. Their preference for A'ja Wilson over Clark for a signature shoe is not just perplexing; it’s a colossal miscalculation that overlooks the undeniable demand for Clark's brand. By sidelining her, Nike is squandering a historic opportunity to align with a game-changing athlete who is reshaping the landscape of women's basketball.

@@Sandals578 I hadn't thought of that but I agree with you. I guess that's where the marketing comes in. I'll never buy anything with that name of logo again.
Nike's deal with Caitlin is eight-years for $28 million. That's only $3.5 million a year (yes "only" but this is is Caitlin Clark we're talking about). CC is getting RIPPED OFF. Adidas needs to buy that out. Let Nike have Aja 🤣🤣
This is unreal. Nike could have sold MILLIONS of shoes by now. Skipping all of CC's record breaking rookie season and not even saying anything publicly about it? This looks intentional to me but why?
@@b.t.3780 It is possible that Nike could release her from her contract - though I assume she would have to pay back the money - and then Adidas could sign her. However, that may concern Nike that they would be embarrassed and impact their brand name so Nike may simply sit on the contract until things cool down long enough to release her shoe. They intend to make $$$$ from the shoe but have years to make a decision. Nike is a corporation and makes decisions ONLY based on profits. What they don't want to do is release a CC shoe and cause part of their main customer base on the other side of the issue to stop buying shoes. It's all about $$$$ and only about $$$$.
Nike is in breach of their agreement. One of the major conditions was her signature shoe. And not only have they not produced a signature shoe. But have now said that her shoe will not come out until Aja Wilson's is released, which will not be until at least the end of 2025 😂❤
Nike was very disrectpectful to CC she played the playoff without her shoes and keep on wearing kobe shoes. Just to please one person or to look good thats a BS. A lot of people keep on waiting for her shoes that will be sold out. Nike is into politics and no nike commercial and even greeted her on her rookie the the year If i wer her she signed in under armour with steph Curry
If she took the money Nike has her rights. She signed a contract and got paid. Nike would have to release her and if they did that and Adidas embarrassed them that would be bad for business. Nike is stuck between a rock and a hard place.
JTL I was just thinking. My mama used to say “sometimes problems solve themselves”, with time. Bonner is 37 Alyssa Thomas is 34. These players will be leaving hopefully sooner than later. I don’t know what coach will want to coach Carrington but that’s the coaches problem. The good news is the recruiting classes coming up for WNBA draft are gonna be all about hoop and they have been used to Caitlin in the college ranks. Also, 3 to 4 years from now kids who admired Caitlin will be coming into the league. What is going to be awesome for everyone to see is Caitlin will embrace these young rookies every year just watch❤❤❤❤❤
Adidas can easily pay all the fines for CC breaking the contract. I can see it happening. 8 years for only 28 million is an absolute ripoff and CC is getting screwed over.
A company disrespecting CC is not a good move. That is a billion dollar bad move- and they could lose Caitlin to another large company at over 100 million dollars(Ex: Under Armour since Adidas has AR and other W's). THAT would be a bargain for another company. Why no word yet from Nike- either have planned a huge ROTY pressor congratulations for CC, or they may be restructuring her contract upwards of 100 million+. If not, they could lose her.
We really don't know exactly what is transpiring between CC & Nike. It looks bad but Lets give it some time and CC will let us know what the delay was about. Consider this... Wilson's shoe is released after season ends. They sell poorly and six months from now her shoes can be bought in the bargain bins of major chains to get rid of them. Just before the new season starts CC's shoe is released to huge demand and quickly sells out. Millions await as new batches are released and sell out. Wilson grinds teeth as CC signs thousands of shoes as next season gets underway and continues through the season. Another clear example of who is the real star of the WNBA. Could happen that way.

Angel is signed with Reebok not Addidas. Shaq is the President of Basketball for Reebok and signed on Angel Reese. Since Nike is also a sponsor and Investor in the WNBA so it’s possible they are waiting on the WNBA to officially announce Caitlin Clark as Rookie of the year and present her with her trophy. However the W and Nike should get their act together.
Stop it with the “woke” crap! Look up the definition….its not a bad or evil thing. It means having an awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism & denial of LGBT rights. At the very least it means to have compassion & empathy for others in this world who need it most. It’s not an insult to throw at white liberals….its actually pretty sad if humans are NOT “woke” to some degree. You almost sound like you don’t approve of Nike being concerned about social injustices & inequalities.
Go to ice cubes league where you’ll b appreciated. Plus Nike sucks. Have for the last 15 yrs atleast. If they aren’t doing their part of the contract have it annulled and go with someone else. Hell, design your own shoe and start your own company making shoes for the wnba
No Caitlin Clark signature shoe/s from Nike then no business with Nike. Let them feel the bud lite pain for going woke. I like Adidas shoes better anyway.
CC needs to sign with Jordan brand instead and transfer her over there. I would love it if Adidas could scoop her up, as their shoes have better quality to them and way more comfortable. I don't have anything against Nike, but they're not good for my feet because of how narrow they are.
The WNBA has not announced the Rookie of the Year winner yet. They put out a timetable about 2 weeks ago for all the awards & ROTY is the LAST award to be given out (no idea why that is) & is scheduled for Tuesday Oct 1 (tomorrow). I would think the Coach of the year or even MVP would be last…the regular season ended 10 days ago & ROTY award should come with celebrating yet some players have already moved on to their offseason plans. Is it because Caitlin Clark is the recipient that they are kind of sweeping it under the rug so as to not make waves with the thugs??
Hey hey hey Christy got 1 vote for not starting N.Smith in game 2 .C'mon man give Christy some flowers for that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 peace my brother....😂😂😂😂😂
Adidas' move to praise Clark was very smart as it exposed Nike's blunder not to optimize her multi-million shoe contract by fast-tracking the production of her own signature shoes during the play-off. Her legion of fans would have bought in a flash just like her jersey! Or at very least, produce a TV ad with her. Tsk marketing 101. CC's management team should rescind her contract in favor of a better partner like Adidas or UA and work with Steph Curry for an awesome tandem TV ad!!!
Sorry Jon. I love your takes but got to disagree with you on Coach Sides;............................ Coach Sides has taken this team much further than any of us expected but you guys still get butt hurt.Grow up. I think Coach Sides is doing a great job, with a very young team developing the chemistry and instilling her O. She has had a learning curve just like the players and appears to be growing and by extension her team is growing. I listened to her post game and she never said "they" but "we" didn't do this or that. She took responsibility just like CC did so you guys need to quit hating on her. Coach Sides is the reason they're in the playoffs, her and the players she coaches. People need to quit "reacting" emotionally and start thinking objectively about things. Put on your big boy pants.
Fever do not play defense well at all… How is Sides a defensive specialist and ter team does NOT know hot to play D…. She is not a good coach… sorry spittin facts
I hope with the Nike fiasco (becoming a racist as well), Caitlin has the options to do the best for her interest, Adidas and Armour is just a call phone away.
At this point we have no explanation from WNBA, their agenda was clear entire season I’m annoyed that Fever doesn’t have it on their website, they have rookie of the month September it’s not like they don’t know Clark one. Fever leadership makes me 🤮
This is absolutely a total disgrace that Nike did this I am super surprised that them doing this I just bought some Nike gear I'm returning it and I'm boycotting Nike and I'm going to tell my friends and co-workers to boycott them too because Caitlin Clark does not deserve this she has worked her ass off for everything that she's gotten this year for them to do this to her is totally disrespectful and disgusting I hope there's a breach of contract with Nike and either Reebok or Adidas can pick her up maybe Adidas smells blood in the water and they're going to go after her if Billie Jean King is the ambassador she's going to make sure that Caitlin Clarke gets everything she deserves Nike is a piece of crap so let's pray I hope and pray that they have some kind of Claus in her contract will still get paid and she'll be able to leave that Nike drop has dropped the ball
I have not bought actual Nike shoes in years and I will continue to not buy any Nike shoes. Reese signed with Reebok not Adidas. Aliyah Boston and Erica Wheeler are with Adidas. I know Aliyah Boston is for sure. The WNBA may be up to some behind the scenes bullshit with the ROTY Award and it would not surprise me one bit.

I stopped wearing Nike years ago. Now it's either Adidas or Under Armour. So Caitlin, go Adidas. You'll "stand" right next to Messi.
Hey hey hey Christy got 1 vote for not starting N.Smith in game 2 .C'mon man give Christy some flowers for that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 peace my brother....😂😂😂😂😂
After Kaepernick, I’ll NEVER buy anything from Nike ever again!
To me, Nike doesn’t exist anymore than the Greek goddess!
Don't forget they also signed Tonya Harding after she had Nancy Kerrigan's leg whacked to keep Kerrigan from winning a medal in ice skating
I'll never forgive them for the anti-American stance.
Adidas' move to praise Clark was very smart as it exposed Nike's blunder not to optimize her multi-million shoe contract by fast-tracking the production of her own signature shoes during the play-off. Her legion of fans would have bought in a flash just like her jersey! Or at very least, produce a TV ad with her. Tsk marketing 101. CC's management team should rescind her contract in favor of a better partner like Adidas or UA and work with Steph Curry for an awesome tandem TV ad!!!
She should start her own brand ala Ewing! Still got my 33's from 1990...('86 Rookie of the Year).
Nike Gone Woke...
They've been woke...
Sorry Jon. I love your takes but got to disagree with you on Coach Sides;............................
Coach Sides has taken this team much further than any of us expected but you guys still get butt hurt.Grow up. I think Coach Sides is doing a great job, with a very young team developing the chemistry and instilling her O. She has had a learning curve just like the players and appears to be growing and by extension her team is growing. I listened to her post game and she never said "they" but "we" didn't do this or that. She took responsibility just like CC did so you guys need to quit hating on her. Coach Sides is the reason they're in the playoffs, her and the players she coaches. People need to quit "reacting" emotionally and start thinking objectively about things. Put on your big boy pants.
Thanks Adidas👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Fever do not play defense well at all… How is Sides a defensive specialist and ter team does NOT know hot to play D…. She is not a good coach… sorry spittin facts
Whatever shoe deal she gets will make 100’s of millions Nike went yoke buuuud. CC is no dummy I am sure their is money guaranteed for her
I hope with the Nike fiasco (becoming a racist as well), Caitlin has the options to do the best for her interest, Adidas and Armour is just a call phone away.
At this point we have no explanation from WNBA, their agenda was clear entire season I’m annoyed that Fever doesn’t have it on their website, they have rookie of the month September it’s not like they don’t know Clark one. Fever leadership makes me 🤮
Caitlin…. This is your conscience speaking. Do not be diplomatic about this.
This is absolutely a total disgrace that Nike did this I am super surprised that them doing this I just bought some Nike gear I'm returning it and I'm boycotting Nike and I'm going to tell my friends and co-workers to boycott them too because Caitlin Clark does not deserve this she has worked her ass off for everything that she's gotten this year for them to do this to her is totally disrespectful and disgusting I hope there's a breach of contract with Nike and either Reebok or Adidas can pick her up maybe Adidas smells blood in the water and they're going to go after her if Billie Jean King is the ambassador she's going to make sure that Caitlin Clarke gets everything she deserves Nike is a piece of crap so let's pray I hope and pray that they have some kind of Claus in her contract will still get paid and she'll be able to leave that Nike drop has dropped the ball
She should have her lawyers get rid of this Nike contract, and go elsewhere…..
sides and dunn will never be off this team..it is CC, kelsey and boston that need to shop for a better team with better coaching staff and figurehead
Angel is signed with reebok not Adidas
I assume that the person who voted for Christie Sides was local Indianapolis media.
She should get a different shoe! Screw Nike. I don't rock 'em.
I have not bought actual Nike shoes in years and I will continue to not buy any Nike shoes. Reese signed with Reebok not Adidas. Aliyah Boston and Erica Wheeler are with Adidas. I know Aliyah Boston is for sure. The WNBA may be up to some behind the scenes bullshit with the ROTY Award and it would not surprise me one bit.
CCshould sign with Adidas
NIKE made in CHINA.!!!!
👎🤏🤏🤏🤏👎👎👎
Nike's gone woke, so she will firm with Adidas.
Im going to buy nike but no thanks will buy adidas or underarmour
Never owned nike. Don't like the shoe or company.
Alwayy admired and respected B J King.
CC22 loves the Kobe shoes and I don’t see her switching
Does Caitlin have somebody helping her make these deals?
CC is bigger than Nike.. Nike can't handle CC.
My soul wont let me buy nike. 30yrs now no nike😅
Indeed I am against slavery so no NIKE
Nike contracted with Tonya Harding over Nancy Kerrigan when Harding whacked Kerrigan's leg - Remember that?
Caitlin Clark should fire her agent who negotiated the deal with Nike.
@@ultimatelv27 Amen to that fire that bastard there's no way he should be getting any part of her money any good agent would have demanded that she have a shoe deal before she ever put her foot on a professional Court
Nike sticks I never buy that crap.
Nike is trying to out Bud Light , Bud Light .
26 million for doing nothing I'll take that . Not clarks problem
I don't know why all these commenters think the contract she has with Nike is void just because they haven't made a shoe yet. Contracts are legal and not about feelings. Caitlin already got paid.
@@mnn1265 She's probably gets paid a portion each year, so hope Nike doesn't go broke
@@user-fq9dl4is6vS I'm sure, she probably just get her first payment but now that she's under contract as long as Nike pays her on time they own her name in the shoe industry.
