NC State hires former Wolfpacker Levi Watkins as assistant coach
NC State fans have been waiting to see who would fill in as assistant coach under Kevin Keatts after Mike Summey and Roy Roberson were let go just two weeks ago.
That question was answered today when the Pack announced the hiring of former Pack player, Levi Watkins away from Ole Miss.
Watkins played at NC State from 2002-2005. He was a Parade All-American when he arrived, and although he battled injuries over his career in Raleigh, he was always a solid player who made winning plays. Over his 4 years with the Pack, Watkins averaged 5.1ppg and 2 rebounds per game.
Since then Levi has been an assistant at Buffalo, and Arizona State prior to his time at Ole Miss.
