In the years to come, Kevin Keatts may not remember a lot about his first game as coach at N.C. State.
He will remember the Wolfpack won it at PNC Arena, which is the most important thing.
Keatts’ first season with the Pack began with a 102-67 victory over VMI, which was outmatched physically but well-coached and hard-working
Keatts, well attired in gray suit and red tie for his first game, was loud and active at the bench, constantly in motion when the Pack was working defensively. He was a little more reserved When the Wolfpack had the ball, pumping a fist when there was a nice hustle play or drive to the basket.
