Let's hope the collectives don't replace the shoe companies at sticking there noses to far into the school/coach's business. "We spent a lot of many for these players, so, Lucy, you got some splainin' to do."

In the 90's, Converse and Reebok still had a pretty big market share in the college game and they outfitted uniforms like Nike and Adidas as well.

Apex, Russell, Sports Belle, Champion, Wilson, and others made uniforms, but those schools used different shoe companies, and Converse actually bought Apex: CONVERSE WILL ACQUIRE APEX

Anybody remember the mid 90's Kentucky uniforms:
