Edwards averaged 17.2 points this past season.
Big pickup for new coach Pat Kelsey and the Cardinals in the rebuild.
Terrence Edwards transferred over from James Madison and is a huge get for Pat Kelsey at Louisville. Kelsey brought over 2 of his players from College of Charleston, and Edwards is his first transfer not from Charleston.
Edwards was named the Sun Belt player of year at JMU and was the unamious leader of the team. Edwards led JMU to a first round win over 5 seed Wisconsin in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, and although they lost to Duke in the round of 32, it still was an impressive short lived run.
Edwards averaged 17.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and shot 42.7% from the floor overall while shooting 34.3% from the perimeter as well. Edward's 3.4 assists also led the team as well.

The news was first broke by Jeff Goodman from the Field of 68 earlier today, and after Edward's visit to Louisville yesterday he likley made a decision after seeing the Cardinal facilties and talking to head coach Pat Kelsey.
