Mike Edwards

So far Edwards is only averaging 4.6 points, but lately he has been scoring a lot more. Edwards scored 10 points last night against Gardner-Webb. He had eight points against George Washington and Furman.

He’s shown flashes of brilliance this season, he just needs to add consistency. At 6’9, the sophomore also needs to add to his rebounds. But just like with his scoring, he’s shown flashes of brilliance there too.

Essentially, he has the potential to be a dominant player. The sooner he reaches that potential, the better. Because if he can do that, the Bulldogs will develop one of the most dominant post games in the SEC.
