SG Antonio Blakeney, Orlando, FL (#14 recruit in 2015) has decommitted from Louisville... Reportedly because of pressure from Nike. Blakeney played for Nike AAU team. Louisville just resigned a mega-deal w/Adidas. Word is this is Nike's reaction to losing Andrew Wiggins.
Wiggins played Nike AAU and then at Kansas was Adidas. He signed a deal with Adidas in the NBA. I was told this was a concern for Bill Self. He was worried that if Wiggins signed with Adidas, Nike would try to blackball all Adidas schools with their AAU players.
Blakeney has scheduled 4 visits... Kentucky, LSU, Oregon, and Missouri. All 4 schools are Nike schools.
