Did anyone else notice that Rodney Edgerson played only 5 scoreless minutes for Kentucky Wesleyan.

I am a bit confused on Edgerson. Did he play 2 years at ICC one at Washington State and another last year at Kentucky Wesleyan. If he got minutes last year is he getting a 5 year of basketball?

Yes, and so I can only surmise he was granted an additional redshirt year for the injury plagued season at Washington State in 2005-2006 in which he played in 9 games but only about 80 minutes.

He is listed on their roster so I guess he was given a red shirt for his time at WSU but it is really strange but who knows. He must have just gotten an ok to join or rejoin the team, since he did not play in their 3 previous games.

BTW some Illini fans are saying how bad KWC is but they just finished playing 3 games in 3 days in Anaheim, playing their last game on Sunday.
