I feel like I remember this name. Weren't we in the mix for him out of high school, and ended up Texas Tech?

Will say the numbers look great, until you look into shooting percentages. 41% from the floor isn't so bad, but 31% from 3 is pretty bad (Taking over 5 shots a game from there at that). I feel like if Wade can get his shooting under control he'd be a good add. Start him at the 2 spot. Problem there in lies where's our 3 point threat on the floor if we start Waters/Mays, this guy and Sampson?

IDK if he starts but seems better than a walkon taking that spot. He's a 1 year guy so there's not a lot of loss here even if he doesn't pan out. Especially with 1 or 2 scholarships still available.

Epps, Sampson and Waters are all big 3 point threats. Edwards put up crazy 3 point numbers in JUCO but who knows how he turns out.

I remember Epps first few games as a freshman. I saw sparks of something there that excited me to see what he was going to develop into. I remember telling someone he was a player to keep their eyes on in he future. Well, we know how that worked out under Jones. But I am truly excited to see what happens under Wade. I really think he could be the surprise of this team.
