Bob Huggins, a noted media day fashion icon, was dressed down Tuesday.

He understood his reputation and aware of the expectations. He was the unfortunate victim of circumstances.

After media day last year, Huggins received a box of similar slacks from the people who make them.

“Gold ones, blue ones, khakis,” Huggins said.

Ever appreciative of the gesture, Huggins had designs on that design again this year. After practice Monday, Huggins stopped by his house to pack a pair and then head to the airport.

“They weren’t hemmed and they were really long,” he said. “They needed cut and hemmed.”
