IMO I would also like a switch to Nike just from a marketing stand point. I feel like most schools that go with Nike seem to have a lot more fashionable apparel available that major companies are willing to pick up and sell. Additionally, although it is personal preference, many athletes prefer Nike performance products because of the amount of research put into them.
On a personal stand point I love Adidas, my closet is full of Adidas but for some reason at Indiana University our school athletics are sponsored by Adidas but all of my IU gear is Nike, only because I picked out the stuff I liked the most and only later realized that it was all Nike.
Lastly Nike can only "encourage" or "push" Nebraska to use any special uniforms. In the end it is up to the university to say what color combinations our players will come out of the tunnel wearing.
I found the following information in case anyone was interested.
TOP APPAREL ENDORSEMENT CONTRACTS
These are some of the top apĀparel deals for universities in the country. The information comes from published reports. The values include cash and estimated compenĀsation of apparel and equipment.
Michigan, $66.5 million, 8 years, Adidas
Notre Dame, $60 million, 10 years, Adidas
North Carolina, $33.7 million, 10 years, Nike
Alabama, $30 million, 8 years, Nike
Kansas, $26.7 million, 8 years, Adidas
Nebraska, $22.7 million, 8 years, Adidas
Oregon, $22.7 million, 8 years, Nike
Indiana, $21 million, 8 years, Adidas
I do like that Nebraska's deal with Adidas ranks so highly among all of these programs and thankfully out does Texa$.
