Auburn interim coach Cadillac Williams was initially resistant to wearing the suit that made a splash at his first home game as head coach. But it grew on him. “I might be able to pull this off,” he thought. The story behind his dapper gameday suit:
Williams gave his reflection a once-over in the mirror and immediately told his wife he couldn’t see himself wearing the suit in public. He requested that she send it back to L.A. Thanks, but no thanks; this one wasn’t for him.
“His players are pretty stylish,” Evan said. “I was like, ‘You can’t be the only one out here not rocking this new style. I see what they are wearing on a day-to-day basis.’ He’s not too old; I feel like we’re still young, and it’s only right to kind of still show his fashion-forward self — although he did not have any skills, clearly, back in the day as a player, at all.
Within a few days, the suits began to arrive in Auburn. More packages arrived throughout that first weekend, even as Williams was leading Auburn to a second-half rally against Mississippi State that fell just short in overtime. The orange-and-blue plaid and mini-checked suit was one of the first to arrive at the Williams residence, and it instantly caught Evan’s eye.
“I was initially thinking Iron Bowl, because I’m like, we got to come all the way with it for the Iron Bowl, but the more I looked at it, I was like, ‘No, this has got to be the first home game,’” Evan said. “Like, this is the one.”Williams resisted at first, but he finally gave in. The suit was growing on him. He appreciated the patterned orange and blue; they were Auburn colors, after all.
“According to my wife and people, I got a lot of likes, a lot of players liked it,” Williams said. “They were like, ‘Dang, Coach, I didn’t know you had that in you.’ So, that was cool.”
