Dawn Staley is one of the top college basketball coaches in the country — and she also has perhaps the best drip game among coaches as well.
Two days removed from wearing a zip-up jacket and a South Carolina visor as she received the Naismith National Coach of the Year award, Staley went with a Louis Vutton jacket covered with colorful polka dots for the Gamecocks’ Final Four matchup against NC State in the Women’s NCAA Tournament at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
By tipoff, she had a different look, an all-black outfit with a white design.

Here is what Staley was seen wearing for the Gamecocks’ Final Four game against NC State on Friday in the NCAA Tournament as she walking through the team’s sendoff in Cleveland:
For the game itself, Staley had a different look, an all-black ensemble.


South Carolina, once again the top overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, is coming off a 70-58 win over Oregon State in the Elite Eight earlier this week.
The Gamecocks trail the all-time series against the Wolfpack 12-20 but are 4-2 in the Staley era, which began during the 2008-09 season.
Staley and South Carolina look to return to the national championship game after losing in the Final Four last year to Iowa and Caitlin Clark.
If the Gamecocks can advance to Sunday’s title game, South Carolina will not only get the chance to win their second national title in three years but will become the 10th team in NCAA Tournament history to go undefeated for an entire season with a win.
