Actually, he was very aware of the Adidas affiliation. In fact, before he signed, he asked the school if he would be allowed to wear Air Jordans. The response was yes, no problem.

Now, the school has the problem with Adidas, not Marcus Jordan. Further, Nike has no interest in UCF as they already have Florida, Miami and Florida State.

UCF has no one to blame but themselves.
