CBS Sports analyzed the rosters that newly hired Power 4 men’s basketball head coaches have assembled heading into the 2025–26 season. Among all the new Power 4 hires, Will Wade was the only coach to receive an A grade.
NC State, Will Wade
To no one’s surprise, Wade immediately assembled a roster that will make NC State competitive in the ACC and capable of earning an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Point guard Tre Holloman brings 106 games of experience from Michigan State, while wing Terrance Arceneaux (Houston) and forward Darrion Williams (Texas Tech) are fresh off playing significant roles for teams that made deep NCAA Tournament runs.
