History

He is history here. And looking at the thread, i hold out the possibility that: He forced top many drives/shots and got himself in trouble He didn't feel forced or wasn't forced to carry the team. Cattoor and others would likely beg to disagree and ask for the ball in certain games.. of course none if us are in his head to know he felt. Filling the image of young’s type of pg at the time: murphy, pedulla, rechsteiner… it did appear he (a) could play obviously at the p4 level and (b) struggled with forced play at the p4 level He is doing well and deserves praise for his growth from where he was then to now We could have used his veteran leadership and scoring now. There are lots of points in the thread and posts last year that are not mutually exclusive and can be true at the same time

Would've been the best player on this year's team by a wide margin.

Everyone wanted Pedulla, he was our best player**
soflahokie • 03/13/25 04:01 PM ET
Considering he got death threats, I wouldn't say everyone.**
vthokieq • 03/14/25 08:15 AM ET
The threat could have come from a Cheetos eating online gambler from Russia**

I think it was more. We didn’t have the right level of money to offer him.
D-Day • 03/13/25 03:48 PM ET
Or he wanted to go to the NCAA tournament. I would say both.**
