Will Wade was all smiles when he landed in Baton Rouge on Thursday following news he was leaving NC State to take LSU’s head coaching job. Wade is set to return to LSU just a year after taking the helm of the Wolfpack’s basketball program, and four years since he was fired by the Tigers in a rather messy and unceremonious unfolding of events that ended his first head-coaching stint there.
In his first public appearance since accepting the Tigers’ position, Wade was seen leaving the airport in a car, but he did take the time to briefly speak to some reporters who were on the scene.
