The power of the shoe

Matt Norlander, Gary Parrish and Sam Vecenie asked this question to a number of college basketball coaches: "Has a shoe company ever cost you a player's commitment?"

The responses totaled a surprising: Yes - 42%, No - 58%

Thes best answer, albeit at first glance the most confounding: "There's one player I know I didn't get because of Nike ... and I work for a Nike school!"

Apparently it wasn't the right Nike school.

This is a very interesting read.
