Will Wade Leaves N.C. State, Key Staff Joining LSU

0:00Will Wade has officially left his role as head coach of the NC State men's basketball team and is heading back to Louisiana State University. He's expected to bring along several key staff members from his one-year stint with the Wolf Pack. Three support staffers have already departed. That includes Greg Golden, the director of performance, Isaac Stansbury, the analytics assistant, and Reed Vile, a special assistant. All three have been removed from the NC State Athletics website. Meanwhile, two assistant coaches are likely to follow Wade to Baden Rouge soon. Brandon Chambers handled defensive coaching, while Vernon Hamilton focused on player development. Both previously worked under Wade at other stops. Not the entire staff is leaving though. Sources say some familiar faces from Wade's past will stay put in Raleigh. NC State Athletic Director Bu Corrigan says the administration is coordinating with remaining leaders in strength training, athletic training, and nutrition to keep supporting the players during this transition.
