Fair or Foul: Firing Kevin Keatts And Hiring Will Wade The Right Move For NC State?

Reese, Kmac and Alex discuss NC State’s dominant 82-58 win over UNC and whether the coaching change from Kevin Keatts to Will Wade was the right move for the Wolfpack’s resurgence.

The NC State Wolfpack men's basketball defeated the North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball 82-58 last night in a dominant rivalry matchup in Raleigh. The Wolfpack jumped out to an early lead and controlled the game from start to finish, earning their largest win over UNC since 1962 with a 24-point margin. UNC struggled offensively throughout the night, shooting just over 31% from the field and 15% from three-point range and was without key players due to injury (Caleb Wilson, Henri Veesaar). The victory served as a major statement win for NC State as they continue to build momentum late in the season. Can the Heels bounce back from this loss? Fair or Foul: NC State made the right decision firing Kevin Keatts and hiring Will Wade? Why couldn't NC State attract the caliber of players it has now, when they had Keatts?
