"Settling" for Carsen

[77 grad]

Remember when C.J. Walker was set to become our Class of 2020 point guard, then de-committed? (Had "too much sauce" for Purdue, per an ex- who will go un-named here.) He is averaging 8.7 PPG, 2.8 RPG and 2.7 APG for 20-10 Florida State this season.

Then we missed on Xavier (now Zavier) Simpson -- 7.4 PPG, 3.0 RBG, 3.6 APG for 27-7 Michigan -- who we'll see once again tonight. Both good players.

Still, we are doing OK with Carsen Edwards -- 18.7 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 3.0 APG for a 28-5 team -- the 2020 guard we wound up with.

It's tough "settling" for players and teams that fall shy of the Final Four, NCAA title, etc. Will this be the year? I am having fun watching.

Kid was the best guard coming out of Texas according to some.............you could see what type of player CMP was getting. Amazing others didn't. I was excited as hell when PU got him. You never know, but it sure did pan out.

yea, but hopefully we have Carsen for 4 years though.

When it comes to recruiting, you can't always get what you want, but this time we got exactly who we needed.

I’m not sure about that anymore. I’m just hoping for one more at this point.
