Did not see this posted and thought the difference is interesting. Nike pays LF and RW slush money whereas the NC State coaches do not recieve salaries directly from Adidas. http://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/unc/article198024869.html
'UNC, Fedora, Williams and chancellor Carol Folt all turned down public records requests by The News & Observer to obtain copies of Williams’ and Fedora’s personal services contracts with Nike.'
'UNC employees such as Williams and Fedora are not subject to the State Ethics Act, which sets standards for outside work by state employees, said Patrick Gannon, public information officer for the state’s Board of Elections and Ethics Enforcement. At the university level, he said, the act applies only to the chancellor, vice-chancellors and voting members of the university board of trustees.'
'N.C. State has a five-year deal with adidas worth $6.45 million a year. An NCSU spokesman said apparel company money goes into athletic department funds, which are used to pay the school’s contracts for Wolfpack men’s basketball coach Kevin Keatts and football coach Dave Doeren. There are no private third-party contracts."
“I would argue that N.C. State is doing it the right way,” Orr said. “That’s probably the proper way to do it.”
'Rick Pitino, the Hall of Fame coach fired at Louisville in the wake of the FBI case, received $2.25 million from adidas in 2016-17, the Louisville Courier Journal reported. When Pitino was fired, adidas immediately terminated its contract with the coach, who has denied any wrongdoing.'
