Nike doesn't want Jimbo Fisher's son wearing an Under Armour sweatshirt

Posted Aug 2, 2014
After Florida State beat Miami last November, ABC cameras captured a sweet moment of Jimbo Fisher’s son Ethan jumping into his fathers arms. Ethan, who is battling the rare blood disorder Fanconi anemia, was wearing a Seminoles sweatshirt, but it just so happened to be made by Under Armour. According to the Wall Street Journal, this didn’t sit well with Nike, which has a $4.2 million licensing and apparel deal with Florida State. (USA Today)
