From OU’s release about the new partnership:
Jordan Brand continues to expand both on the court and on the field. Today the brand welcomes the University of Oklahoma to the family, making it just the third collegiate football program to represent the Jumpman on the gridiron. The Sooners’ uniforms will begin to feature the Jumpman logo at the start of the 2018-19 season. The partnership will include the football team and the men’s and women’s basketball teams.
Oklahoma joins Michigan and North Carolina as FBS football programs to wear Jordan Brand uniforms.
