'GQ Jay has been replaced by Casual Jay,' writes jensenoffcampus. 'Villanova’s men’s basketball coach knows a lot of people miss him wearing the finest double-breasted suits, maybe silk woven into the inside of the jacket.'
Villanova’s men’s basketball coach knows a lot of people miss him wearing the finest double-breasted suits, maybe silk woven into the“Our president doesn’t like it,” Wright said Monday about the switch to wearing high-end workout gear during games. “He always is telling me he likes the suits.”
This Saturday against Kansas at the Final Four in New Orleans, don’t bet on GQ Jay reappearing. Wright said he appreciates that he is allowed to keep it casual. Wright said he was never trying to make a larger statement about his wardrobe, was always uncomfortable when he’d read someone online actually rating the ensemble. Maybe it also provided a little cover. Until the national titles, that was Wright’s calling card, not so bad for recruiting, while at the same time Wright could get in the practice gym in basic attire, work on the important matters of the game.“It was all him,” Wright said over the phone a couple of days after D’Annunzio died.
“Kevin Willard was always funny,” Wright said of the coach who has just left Seton Hall to take over at Maryland. “In our coaches’ meetings, he would always say, ‘Jay’s the one; whatever Jay says, that’s what we’re going to do.’ Other guys would say, ‘I don’t care what Jay does,’ … Then I went casual, and he went to the suit.”“It was comical, we literally had coaches’ Zoom meetings about it,” Wright said.
“Mike Nardi is in charge of that,” Wright said of his assistant coach, making sure the whole staff has the same gear on. “He literally has a rack in his office of all the different combinations. It’s harder for me getting dressed this way than it was with a suit because we all have to match. He sends us pictures of the shirt, the pants, the shoes. … I have to match them up with my phone. The color, I can’t tell. I’m more nervous about what I wear now, that it’s the same as everybody else.
