Title: Nike campaign
Post by: mp91 on December 09, 2011, 10:04:12 AM
Nike is having a "campus roar" campaign where the top 16 schools with the most social networking publicity get custom-made Nike T-shirts...

here is the link:

in a half hour this morning, we jumped from 155 to 72... so every RT or Facebook like is really important... and right now Butler is kicking our ass... so get on it

The likelihood of us winning this thing are 0.000000000000000001% :).  I would be veryyyyyy surprised if a small school wins this

From the link, our today's ranking (12/9/2011) is 40th.

Yeah... we completely agree that a large school has a much better chance of winning...

but when you look at the overall leaders, Old Dominion is 21, North Carolina a&t is 25, Butler is 26, and Creighton 27... so small schools are in the running

but more importantly, even if we have no shot... 112 is pathetic. We at least have to keep up with Horizon league teams
