Title: Richie Edwards update
Post by: vu72 on March 17, 2011, 05:43:42 PM
Finally found out the Richie Edwards was named the Player of the Year in the Florida SunCoast Conference!  Congrats to him.  I presume he also made the all tatoo team--wait to you see the art work!!  :o

And a Division 1 District 8 First Team member!

He averaged 18.6 ppg, shot 40 % from 2, and 34% from the 3 plus 71% FTs plus 6.8 boards per game.

A 6'8 three point shooter.  I think that is exactly what we are missing!

If he can't play the 5, how is he the missing piece?  We would be no better off than we are currently, would we not?



i believe cmack was being a little sarcastic...i would hope

Yes, I was.  It doesn't come across so well on here I suppose.  Edwards may have talent but how much different from Rowdy is he?

Well, he is probably an inch or two taller and definitely has more tatoos!!

So maybe he can bulk up a bit and play some 4 with range on his shot.  I'm sure the tats could stretch to cover a bit more muscle.  After all, playing out of position has become a Valpo tradition. ;)
