Now the big problem here is that UCF has an exclusive $1.9 million contract with shoe giants Adidas that requires all coaches and athletes to use the company’s shoes, along with the game equipment.

As for now UCF and Adidas are at a weird relation , leaving Michael Jordon and his son Marcus Jordan in the middle of  nowhere.

Marcus Jordan, said that he did not mean to offend anyone at all.
He further said that, “It’s a level of importance with the Jordan Brand and my family”. “It’s no disrespect to adidas. I have a high level of respect for adidas, but I’m going to be wearing Jordan shoes. I’m wearing the adidas uniform and all my other UCF gear is adidas, but the shoes are going to be Jordan Brand.”
