Twitter Has a lot to Say About adidas' Nebraska College Cleats

Nebraska College’s Cornhuskers just got some new football cleats, and Twitter is pissed. The footwear comes amid in which officials are accused of bribing athletes to join adidas-sponsored colleges, a crime spurred by the increasingly questioned practice of schools and brands not paying athletes.

So, when adidas dropped these ‘emoji’ cleats covered in cash, the public were quick to call-out poor taste.

Moving on from the controversy, adidas and the Huskers revealed a new pair decked in '100' emojis.

💯💯💯
