You heard it here first. Will be announced tomorrow. Brojos feel free to call Henry to confirm or just wait for noon time tomorrow.

A&M is sponsored by Adidas so it's not like he has any ties to them.
Who in their right mind would ever sign with Nike they way they have been treating the runners lately?
I would tell them guaranteed contract or going elsewhere.
that info was available on friday:http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-06-24/nike-dispute-with-runner-berian-showcases-reduction-clause-fight
Berian is now free to negotiate with any sportswear company. He’s leaning towards a sponsorship deal with New Balance, Keflezighi said.
“Boris has a great appreciation for New Balance products and the way they support the athletes,†he said. “So that’s his first preference, and that’s what we’re exploring.â€
so not exactly that exciting

Id bet he goes Nike
Interesting. Why does Adidas not sponsor the track team as well? Seems strange.

Other than the Berian family why would anyone care which shoe company one of the athletes signs with? This isn't like Durant ending up with your favorite NBA team.

Henry has a career long relationship with Nike as the provider for his athletes and he thinks their products are far superior to adidas'. When A&M was negotiating their deal with adidas he told them the track program would be sticking with Nike or he would be heading elsewhere.

Actually if NB is true great but...as the athlete swoosh is the very reason to go after you as the elite athlete have all of the leverage. If the agent hasn't done so already he/she could customize a top tier contract.
Athlete: 1.)Smash 50 year record. 2.) Public knows about Boris.3.) Boris is also your fellow competitior at distance.4.) Increase your bargaining power because you will compete against Boris who is of course anti nike.
Nike: 1.) Bad Press debacle 2.) No current #1 800 runners/medalists 3.) Rudisha is Adidas Nijel is too.
Brazier's agent should do their job! This is just an example of capitalist free enterprise at work in T&F. We the public have been shielded from it until Nike decided to bring Boris to litigation
is there a google app that will translate this into English?

Nike's Capriotti and his high priced legal team failed to do their jobs. Sucks to lose so soundly to a guy with a lowly JD. Worse, athletes are now aware of Nike's bait-and-switch contracts and will avoid them at all costs.

Outside of a small circle if track and the letsrun echo chamber NO ONE knows or cares about Berian.
I've got my money in Brazier either going to Nike or Saucony he raced in Saucony all of HS https://goo.gl/images/NWTyT8 and raced in Nikes all of college it would seem odd to me that o pick a new spike company this close to the trials

Why would he pick Nike with their onerous reduction clauses? He make more signing with someone else. Nike spikes ARE NOT a Performance Enhancers. Nike marketing claims they are, but they're just pointy pieces of metal made to look cute.
