First time long time as they say. I’ve read a lot about how we need guys like DJ, Bradshaw and Edwards to come back next year, but could we be better by subtraction in some of these instances? If Cal had to start DJ and Edwards this year, wouldn’t he feel forced to play them again next year regardless of how they play? They could make a big jump from year one to two, but I personally don’t know how much upside either has. DJ will likely not learn how to shoot over the summer, and Edwards won’t become athletic or learn how to dribble during the offseason.
I’m not saying I’ll be mad if they return, they seem like great kids, but we may be better off if they put their names in the draft or portal. I don’t feel dogmatic about being better without them, but it’s how I’m leaning right now.
To be honest, if Cal just played his best players, I’d welcome back everybody with welcome arms, but DJ and Edwards would be guaranteed starters next year, and I see them more as depth pieces.
