Very little. adidas (or any of those companies) provide uniforms, variety of T-shirts, polos, travel bags, headbands, etc., with the demand that their logo appear prominently on the uniform, scoreboards, in athletic publications, backdrops, etc. It's mainly a trade-off with the P5s getting the larger amounts of money.
Put yourself on the other side of the equation, those companies are not interested in renegotiating every couple years, so the contracts are probably done for five or more years at a time.
Speaking of which I thought HAF donors were supposed to have access to the Addidas catalog? I got an email about a website a while back but I've heard nothing since. Does anyone have an info?

and Jiff had just redone the contract BEFORE we made it to the Orange Bowl. No doubt great timing on that one...for Adidas.
