It’s no secret that Dan Mullen has one of the best shoe games among college football coaches.
On Tuesday, the Florida coach distanced himself from others even more so when he showed off a picture of another awesome pair of Jordan sneakers.
Before Mullen was scheduled to appear at SEC Media Days in Atlanta, he used the morning to post a picture of his latest pair of blue, white and orange Gators-themed footwear on Twitter. This pair is mostly white, featuring a “Gators” logo low on the side. Here’s a look:

This is nothing new for Mullen. In fact, he’s already shared other pairs of blue and orange sneakers on Twitter since he signed a deal to become the Florida coach in late November.
Back in December, Jordan sent Mullen a pair of sneakers to go along with his new coaching gig:

Mullen has made headlines with his shoe selection at previous SEC Media Days while serving as coach at Mississippi State. In 2016, he wore Yeezy shoes, which is a type of Adidas footwear designed by Kanye West.
Of course, Mullen will likely be sticking with Jordan-brand sneakers now that he’s moved to Florida.
Was Mullen’s tweet on Tuesday morning a sign that he’d be rocking those new sneakers at SEC Media Days later in the day? It appears so, as the Gators’ Twitter account shared multiple photos of Mullen’s footwear and stated that their coach was “swagged out” for the day:
