Nike is bringing back one of its most eye-catching basketball models with a college-themed twist this week, and the lineup reaches well beyond the usual player-exclusive wish list. The Nike Air Foamposite Pro “College Pack” is set to land alongside the “Mummy Duck” colorway for Oregon fans, but the bigger story is the four-school collection built around Ohio State, FSU, LSU, and TCU.
Each pair in the pack is scheduled to release at 10:00 a.m. ET on Thursday, November 5, with adult sizes priced at $250 on the Nike SNKRS app and at select retailers.
The Ohio State pair keeps things clean with a white upper and subtle Buckeyes graphics, then adds University Red details to sharpen the look. The Ohio State logo sits on the tongues, Buckeyes branding appears on the heel, and the outsole finishes the design with white, red, and black.
FSU’s version goes in a deeper direction, using a Team Maroon upper with Seminoles graphics and white detailing. The tongue carries FSU branding, the heels feature the FSU Seminoles logo, and the “Unconquered” heel tab graphic ties the shoe back to the team slogan. A gum outsole rounds out the colorway.
LSU gets a louder treatment, starting with a University Gold upper marked by Tiger stripes and white detailing. Purple accents bring in the school’s colors, while official LSU branding, Tiger logos, and “Geaux Tigers” complete the package.
TCU’s pair leans into a New Orchid upper with black-and-white detailing, and the frog skin pattern runs throughout the shoe. The design draws from the Horned Frogs’ alternate game jerseys, with official TCU branding and “Give ’em hell” keeping the look tied to the fanbase.
For sneaker fans who have long wanted more of these school-specific Foamposite colorways to reach the public, this week’s drop is a notable one.

Ohio State Opens With One Big Question After Bruce Thornton
Ohio States 2026-27 mens basketball season opens with BYU, and the early conversation around the Buckeyes has already centered on how theyll replace Bruce Thorntons presence. A source pointed to a perimeter-heavy approach as the likely answer, with Juni Mobley and Amare Bynum expected to take on important roles as the offense adjusts to life without one of its most established guards.
Anthony Thompson and LJ Smith are also part of the early picture, with the staff watching how the freshmen settle into bigger responsibilities as the opener approaches. Health is another part of the equation, and the Buckeyes injury status will be worth monitoring as they try to sort out a new identity before the schedule gets rolling. [Read more 🡒]
Ohio State Just Got A New Recruiting Concern After USC Upset
USCs upset of No. 2 Ohio State at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum did more than shake up the standings. It also gave the Trojans a jolt on the recruiting trail, with fans and recruit Malaki Davis joining the field rush after the win. For a program trying to capitalize on momentum, those moments can matter just as much as what happens between the lines.
Davis came away energized by the experience, and his day included meeting USC legend Marcus Allen, a reminder of the kind of history and star power the Trojans can still sell to recruits. Lincoln Riley also tried to quiet the noise around his own future, issuing a handwritten statement to reaffirm his commitment to USC as speculation about his job security swirled. For Ohio State, the loss was painful enough on its own, but the ripple effects may linger well beyond the final whistle. [Read more 🡒]
