The routine arrives with confidence.

NC State’s new basketball coach Justin Gainey gets a warm welcome, but with a few jabs at his predecessor Will Wade.

Gainey’s name wasn’t top of mind, but Wade was.

Corrigan’s Freudian slip was just the beginning of a week of awkward moments.

Gainey’s homecoming is expected to bring on-court success, but he’ll be compared to Wade.

The Wolfpack’s new coach is already feeling the pressure.

Just another day in college basketball, where loyalty is just a word.
