Dots: What does the 1980 Soviet Olympic Team and 2019 Washington have in common?

If you guessed “What is both were supplied uniforms by Adidas, Alex?” then you are correct.

Anyways, sorry about the late dots (some technical difficulties in SB Nation’s system earlier this morning) but let’s get to it:

• In what is indisputably the most important news of the day, Ryan Clark of The News Tribune talks about Dubs II and his training.

• In some other big news from this morning, the Dawgs are leaving Nike for the first time this century and swapping to Adidas and their fat stack of cash as of the 2019 season. The News Tribune and The Times have their takes.

• In men’s basketball news, Clark of TNT has his thoughts on Michael Carter III’s transfer.

• Gabbie Plain was named Pac 12 Freshman of the Week after throwing a perfect game against Utah this weekend.

• Hunter Bryant is recovering from his injury while Drew Sample adjusts to being the leader of the TEs.

• Whatever your thoughts on the aesthetics of Adidas uniforms, r/CFB is psyched to get their Adidas tracksuits out and squat like it’s Moscow circa ‘81.

• Criddell’s on board (please commit now?):

Buuut Markelle isn’t so much:

“Clean pocket,” keyword. But significant nonetheless:

Lastly: Totally unrelated to Washington, but Sister Jean should be on our money IMHO.

Do good things, don’t do bad things, and bow down to Washington.
