I don't get how Fisher, Hunter, and Parsons are the only Tinman guys with actual pro contracts. Everyone else is just on the team and wears Adidas, but none of them represent the brand directly (no "adidas athlete" in insta bios, etc). Hunter is obvious. Stud out of HS and signed a big contract. But Fisher and Parsons being the only other actually sponsored guys is kinda wack. Parsons ran just under 29 min for 10k in college. Not exactly pro contract material. Is it a matter of already having the brand publicity and not needing to sponsor everyone in the group? I wonder if TME prefers it this way so they can bring on whoever they want. I bet having Adidas guys in Portland calling the shots isn't exactly what they want.
Possibly a bad look for Adidas cause they aren't taking care of their athletes the way they do with Golden Coast TC or even the way Nike does with Bowerman/OTC. Also a bad look for the Tinman guys. A lot of them just look like walk-ons to a team, not legit pros with contracts.
