Clothes Call: Coaches vs. Cancer kicks

It’s Coaches vs. Cancer weekend, and that means coaching staffs around the nation are wearing gym shoes on the sidelines to help raise awareness for the deadly disease. And, in some cases, coaches opt for a more comfortable look, like Tom Crean. Check out photos of all the Big Ten coaches’ footwear from this weekend in this post.

Illinois’ John Groce went with blue and orange Nikes, while staff went white and orange

As mentioned above, Crean went with the tracksuit again:

Iowa’s staff went with white and black Nikes
