Abilene Christian HC ready to face Kentucky ... with ripped pants
If anyone has a spare pair of pants in Joe Golding's size, he could use one before Thursday.
The Abilene Christian head coach will face the daunting task of preparing his side to take on heavyweight Kentucky, but the 43-year-old admitted Wednesday he'll have to do so with a sizable tear in the back of his pants after ripping them celebrating his school's first-ever NCAA Tournament berth Sunday.
They were part of the only suit he brought to the tourney.
"I'm coaching in my baby blue suit, and I'm going to have a hole in my butt, man," Golding said Wednesday, according to ESPN's Andrea Adelson.
Golding said he attempted to have the trousers fixed in Abilene before the big day, but tailors told him he was out of luck.
"We've got one suit place in town, that's it. And they couldn't get it done," Golding said. "I guess you've got to alter and do some stuff."
