Craig Sager sets the bar for NCAA Tournament suits very high

Craig Sager's Friday appearance at the NCAA Tournament makes you wonder if he's auditioning for a role as the Easter Bunny. Long known for his extravagant fashion sense , Sager began Friday's broadcasts in a light pink plaid suit. Craig Sager's wild suit caught the eyes of many fans on Friday. (Steve Greenberg/SN) Mike Freeman, a columnist for CBS Sports, highlighted the humor of Sager's suit with a Twitter post saying, " Elton John to Craig Sager: 'Love your style, bra.' " Sager used to work for CBS but now is a sportscaster for TNT and TBS. Four networks are carrying NCAA Tournament coverage this year, and Sager was part of the CBS broadcast from the West Region early game Friday. Referred to as "America's Sideline Reporter", Sager has worn the pink plaid blazer before , and Kevin Garnett reportedly told him he should burn it. But that time, the shirt and tie were horribly paired with the jacket. Friday's white shirt and pastel tie were comparatively conservative. Sager was at the Texas-Oakland game in Tulsa for second-round play in the NCAA Tournament. Sager's Friday suit would match Walt Frazier's wardrobe from Thursday night's Knicks game very well. St. Patrick's Day pink ... that's a new one.
