Last season ?The Runway to the Fashionable Four? culminated with a showdown between Texas A&M coach Melvin Watkins and former UMass coach Bruiser Flint. By a ?ties-length? Flint was crowned America?s Best-Dressed coach.

On Dec. 5, in a pre-game ceremony at Drexel University, CollegeInsider.Com?s Angela Lento presented Flint with his award.

In March 2002, the spotlight will once again be shining on coaches as they take center stage in ?The Runway to the Fashionable Four.?
