Kicks Analysis 2017 #3: Sweet 16
The sweetness of the sixteen teams still dancing look like this:
- Florida (4)
- Wisconsin (8)
- Baylor (3)
- South Carolina (7)
- Gonzaga (1)
- West Virginia (4)
- Arizona (2)
- Xavier (11)
- Kansas (1)
- Purdue (4)
- Oregon (3)
- Michigan (7)
- North Carolina (1)
- Butler (4)
- Kentucky (2)
- UCLA (3)
Nike holds a dominant position with 12 of the 16 (75%). Adidas and UA both have two teams represented (12.5%), but Adidas has powerhouses, UCLA and Kansas, playing.
I haven’t been impressed by any particular pair of kicks on-court thus far. So instead, I’ll give props to the Big West representatives, UC Davis and the bespeckled, hard working, Chima Moneke.
