With their Nike $, they're as much as fault for the arms race in college sports as any school.
And what's the only logo allowed on PSU's uniforms? Plain white helmets, black shoes, basic no-frills jerseys and pants, but with one exception---the very visible Nike swoosh emblem on the front of each jersey.
