Zach Edey is one of the most dominant players in college hoops history, but how much of his legacy will be tied to Purdue's success in the Big Dance? FOX Sports' college basketball experts answer that and more.
Purdue's Zach Edey is simply put – one of one. There is no one as big and no one as dominant in college basketball as the Bolliermakers' 7-foot-4, 300-pound center, who is well on his way to being named the Naismith Men's College Player of the Year for the second consecutive season. In doing so, Edey will become the first player since former Virginia center Ralph Sampson to receive the honor multiple times.
Why? In a draft class with a lot of question marks across the board, you know with Edey that you’re getting a 21-year-old who’s developed every year as a prospect, can cover a lot of ground defensively and protect the rim, and is a unicorn from a size perspective who is capable of drawing fouls while shooting 72% from the free throw line.
