Best of Midnight Madness: Bill Self imitates Andrew Wiggins’ draft day outfit
Midnight Madness produces some memorable moments each year, so The Dagger is chronicling the best ones from this October’s lineup. If you spot something we missed, let us know here or here.
For a guy who has shown up to previous Midnight Madness events clad in black leather on the back of a motorcycle or dressed as Vanilla Ice, Bill Self still managed to outdo himself Friday night at”Late Night at the Phog.” The Kansas coach addressed the crowd dressed in a suit nearly identical to the infamous flower-print one former Jayhawks star Andrew Wiggins wore to the NBA Draft last June. Self’s outfit wasn’t the only way he got Kansas fans laughing. He starred in several video parodies of Dos Equis’ “Most Interesting Man” commercials, each celebrating the Jayhawks’ decade of dominance in the Big 12. Said Self in the first one, “We don’t always win championships, but when we do, we prefer ten-straight.” Predictably, the crowd seemed to really enjoy this one. Added Self in the second one, “We don’t always wear jewelry, but when we do, we prefer a ring on each finger.”
