The University of Kansas and Adidas are partners. Anytime a partner is indicted, arrested and accused in a scandal it is obviously a shock to the system. This Adidas bribery scandal certainly shocked Kansas basketball fans in many ways. The most difficult part is not knowing much and not hearing much from KU.
How would you like to be Athletics Department spokesman Jim Marchiony? His job is never easy and this Adidas scandal is no fun for anyone. He consistently explained to the media the FBI never contact anyone at KU, as reported in the KC Star.
