Pedulla is an extremely talented player who can go off for 25 on any given night. He can do it all offensively scoring from 3 pt range, mid-range and driving to the basket. He routinely made circus shots. I believe that he often tried to do too much which led to him taking bad shots or turning the ball over. But when he played under control, he was the best and most talented player on the team IMO. I would say his defense was just average but his good outweighed the bad. As for Kidd, he was decent offensively but a non-factor on defense. He should have had tons of blocked shots. If Miami thinks he will be their savior then they are sorely mistaken.

I can't imagine paying a kid who is not that good so much money. And everyone pointing fingers at Coach Young. I know that I wouldn't want his job with all the criticism when there's not much he can do except keep taking the body blows one after another.

Thanks for your reply kingofcassell. Pedulla is as good as gone then.

Did someone say that Lynn Kidd got a $500,000 NIL deal at Miami? I read someone on a response mention this. Don't know if it has been documented and is true or not. But, if so, wouldn't it be possible that he told the rest of his teammates and this is the spark that caused all of them to enter the portal? I don't think there is a single NBA-quality player on the team so maybe they are trying to get as much $$ as possible during their college careers. Just a thought.
