Kolek's new store

[CountryRoads]

Several things:

• Quit criticizing everyone's posts and opinions. 
• I doubt IWD did it as a favor...his company IWB Marketing did it. I hope he didn't charge TK very much because the product is not great.
• I hope TK makes a bunch of cash, but we have absolutely no idea how much he will make.
• They should talk to whoever is doing Sean Jones' merch. I'm curious where those are going to be sold.

Sean's shirts are cool but is that legal to have the Marquette logo on them like that? I notice on Kolek's site they are careful not to have any direct MU branding anywhere on the site.

Speaking of shirts. Anyone buy one of these?

I can't say for sure, but I suspect that it's legal...as long as you pay for licensing. I also suspect that MU might be unwilling to license a product or site promoting the "F*ck 'Em" gear.

I believe you are correct on both counts.

[lawdog77]

And that's on "IWB Marketing, LLC."

Agree . Good for Tyler to try to get paid. I can separate that from the unprofessional website. Someone needs to clean that up, and pay for some GoogleAds.

Thanks, makes sense.

Doing a little digging and found that something called the NIL Store. About a dozen schools are already up and running with more to come. I do recall seeing the IU one a long time ago when looking for something else, but didn't realize it was part of a larger collection of stores.

Right now, UConn and DePaul are the only Big East programs with a store. None of the DePaul guys have customized merch (you can just get their name/number on generic DePaul shirts), but several of the UConn guys are selling their own merch including Hawkins, Clingan, and Karaban.


I wonder if MU will be doing something like this? Or if Be the Difference NIL is going to take it's place. I'd like to see MU participate in this -- give the athletes a chance to sell personalized merchandise on a professionally developed site. Granted, I doubt they'd allow TK to sell the F*ck 'Em shirts on there.

Can you imagine the possibilities back in the bumble bee uniform era?  Maybe a Lucas sponsored fur coat?  Tuxes in the image of the iconic team photo? Merch based on the designs of the MU players?  Boxing gloves in honor of the South Carolina brawl?   Switchblades?  Maybe Chones could have afforded to stick around.

Hope he's allowed to play on Saturday

MU is already doing NIL jerseys and customized shirts. The Marketing Department doesn't always sux.

You can customize tshirts and add icons/stickers. One of the available stickers is a football. Time to buy a bunch of Marquette Football gear.

This is sweet!  I ordered 2 T's and 2 hoodies.

Yep, ordered a few, least I could do for the young man. Are the shirts great, eh, is the sentiment, oh yeah!

So boys and girls, has anyone received anything yet?

I didn't buy one so I don't know if there was anything specific about timing stated in the purchase process, but the "Orders will be processed once they are printed" statement in the "Terms" link wouldn't lead me to think that the shirts will be coming any time soon. That leaves the impression that they're collecting orders first, then they'll print the shirts. I hope it's a quick turn-around for everyone who ordered them.

The custom jerseys from the Spirit Shop take 6 to 8 weeks to deliver. 
In this day and age, that is nuts. Still waiting for our OMax jersey for my son. Probably get it just in time for the end of the season.

I ordered 4 the day the site came out.

No delivery yet.

Got mine this morning.

Forgot it was unisex. Might wear my Fugg em shirt to the game tomorrow. Gonna fit me like spanx.

You're welcome whoever else is at the game.
