Following NC State’s winning streak being snapped because they were unable to stop Mikel Brown Jr. , Ryan Conwell from scoring NC State Head Coach Will Wade shared his thoughts by saying We got whipped off the bounce. They beat us in every way possible. We just got torched,” Wade said. “We gave up 76 points to two players. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that. They picked at some matchups, and we could just never get our footing. Got down 14-4 and never get our footing in the game. We just got hammered.”
I didn’t have the right pulse of things today. I didn’t have the right read today, and it showed,” Wade said. “This should never happen. That’s not the standard of our program, not the standard of who we are. To give up the amount of records that we gave up tonight, it’s embarrassing. It’s embarrassing for myself, it’s embarrassing for the program. It’s embarrassing for our fans.”

Durham’s family also has a special history in the conference. His father, Woody, was the legendary “Voice of the Tar Heels” for 40 years.
