The 2014 Southern Conference Coach of the Year returned to Virginia Commonwealth University, where he had been an assistant under Shaka Smart, to replace the now-Texas head coach as the head man of the Rams. It was a smart hire for a program that had been brought to national prominence by Shaka's HAVOC defense and bringing Wade back into the fold was a recognition that the program's success was inextricably tied to that identity.
