Nike probably won't re-sign him just to save face. You would think Hoka, Saucony, or even Reebok would jump at the chance to sign him.

Hoka One One
Reebok? Huh? You're a little late to the game, man.
It would not surprise me if he resigns with Nike.
It will be Nike. Uncle Phil takes care of his Ducks.

Huh? Take care? He was dumped by Nike after a couple very promising half-marathons and one shockingly bad marathon.
Was he really sponsored while he was with OP or was he a practice squad guy?

http://www.runnersworld.com/chicago-marathon/after-briefly-quitting-running-former-oregon-project-member-heads-to-chicagoBut Puskedra’s marathon debut, in New York City in 2014, was a woeful 2:28:54, a disappointment so devastating for the then-Nike Oregon Project athlete that he imagined he might not ever run again. The decision to give up the sport before his 25th birthday was largely made for him—at the end of 2014, Puskedra’s contract with Nike was not renewed.

He'll probably sign back with Nike
He still wears Nike gear out in public and on all of his runs, trains at O U and around Nike HQ, and he has good connections with them, I don't see why he wouldn't
I know OTC really doesn't have any marathoners but he seems to be doing just fine training with the Oregon team and by himself, he even said he feels more confident with the distance not doing marathon soecific training and under training for the distance
He can still trian with guys like Hassan Mead and Tom Farrell for the most part, plus it'll make OTC look better for having a variety of events on their roster
Well whatever shoes and equipment Luke is wearing my team wants to wear. So were just waiting to see what it is.

Tracksmith all over this one...he's got that old school look.

Why do you (and the brojo's) keep bashing him for the 2:27 marathon. You guys talk about that as if that's worse than a DNF.
Agreed... One race doesn't define the runner. I personally think it would be hilarious if Under Armour stepped up and signed him. They are really one of the only larger brands that could/should give a competitive offer against Nike if it came to a bidding war
Saucony
Skechers should sign him so they have a shot at 2 Olympians in the Marathon...
