Gardner Minshew gained social media attention while departing for San Antonio earlier this week when he wore an unexpected outfit and posted a photo on twitter.
Minshew’s sisters Callie and Meredith commented on his fashion statement in San Antonio on Wednesday.
“He told us he got a red suit, not that it had cougars all over it,” Meredith said.
Minshew left the Washington State University fieldhouse in Pullman wearing a red and silver Cougars leisure suit. Head coach Mike Leach told the media it belonged to an alumnus who wants to retire it after this recent outing.
"The guy had worn it at multiple games – big fan – sent it down to the facility and I'm borrowing it for this game. ...Man it's been awesome. It was a lot of fun doing that," Minshew said.
Minshew said the alumnus wore the leisure suit for the last time during College GameDay.
Friday is the Cougs’ first-ever match-up against Iowa State in the Alamo Bowl, a Big 12 team that has won seven out of its last eight games.
