Do you really think UF doesn't want CLC to stomp on an elementary school? Would the contract not have been reviewed by UF attorneys?
That's one of the reasons for hiring them. They can pass the blame on to them. Another reason for hiring them is they don't have to track down every little violator. CLC does it. They also go after the little t-shirt screen printer who prints up a few dozen shirts with a gator head and tries to sell them in their small community. The poor screen printer was just trying to make a buck. Trying to keep the wolf from the door. Where's the sympathy for him? It's the same thing. Why do you think some spokesperson for the university hasn't organized a press conference and exclaimed to the world that this kind of activity is overboard and we really didn't intend for the small elementary school to be hurt? Why not? Because this is exactly what CLC was contracted for. This isn't collateral damage. This is what licensing is all about.

UF hired them, not the other way around. They could be fired if they weren't doing what UF wanted. I've not seen the contract. If it were a 5 year exclusive contract, exactly how would UF control CLC if CLC wanted to stomp on an elementary school for using the Gator logo yet was within its contractual rights to do so? -Zeb -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
