Kim Mulkey Talks About Former LSU Coach Will Wade As Lady Tigers Prepare For NC State

LSU Women's Basketball head coach Kim Mulkey spoke with the media in Spokane, Washington, on Thursday ahead of the Lady Tigers' Sweet 16 matchup with NC State.

During the press conference, a reporter from NC State asked coach Mulkey about former LSU head coach Will Wade and what it was like working with him.

"I was with Will for only one year," Mulkey said. "He treated me with the utmost respect. When I got off that airplane and took the LSU job, and before the press conference, he and Paul Mainieri were the first two people to hug me when I got off that plane, and to me, that showed respect."

"He is going to be a totally different personality than Wes, but he's a winner. If you just look at it, he won at LSU, he won at McNeese, and I would imagine he's getting ready to wake the Wolfpack up and win at NC State."

No. 3 LSU and No. 2 NC State tip off on Friday at 6:30 p.m. on ESPN.
