Pac-12 media days were full tense moments, shoe game competition, and hungry media. We bring you the awards from the Men’s Basketball Media Day.

The Pac-12 Media day is held before the start of each season. Now that the Pac-12 Network exists, this event is broadcasted live. This year it was filmed at the Pac-12 headquarters in San Fransisco, the perfect location.

Lunch was served on the top deck, and the view was spectacular! Before lunch, each head coach brought their player into the media room to answer questions.

While taking notes about the questions and answers, we couldn’t help but note a few fun things we observed during the day.

Tres Tinkle came in all orange and white, but his shoes were off the charts. Each shoe had a picture of the Oregon State mascot Beaver on the front of the tongue. All in white, but with the addition of the orange and black Beaver, that was hard to beat.

Tres’ dad and head coach Wayne Tinkle’s tie was also rockin’! Orange and white, it was the most coordinated outfit of a father/son combo, and it stuck with us.

Runners up include Oregon Duck Tyler Dorsey with his bright yellow matching socks and shoes with hints of green and Utah’s Kyle Kuzma, who’s shoes matched exactly with his uniform, red, gray and white. Their unis were basic, but their kicks were fantastic!

Note: When you see a baller with their humongous shoes untied, it is because they don’t want to ‘crease’ their shoes. That said, half the players did not tie their shoelaces, and no one forced them too.
