After a resurgent first season in Baton Rouge, Will Wade was setting the world on fire with his recruiting. Then came the revelation he was picked up on a wiretap talking to Christian Dawkins, a central figure in an FBI investigation that led to the conviction and several others. Wade remains an up and coming coach whose basketball bonafides run deep, starting at Clemson as a manager and rising to lead one of the SEC’s more storied programs. What do we know so far about Wade?
Not a lot.
For one, he can recruit. He built a roster at UT-Chattanooga that challenged for league titles in short order, and took over a well-oiled machine at VCU and kept things humming.
