At 24 years old, Edwards comes in with a strong blend of size, skill, and experience. Standing 6’7″ with the mobility of a guard, he gives the Tide a matchup nightmare on both ends of the floor. Whether he’s coming off the bench or slotted into the starting five, Edwards is a plug-and-play option who makes everyone around him better.

And that’s exactly what this team needs right now.

With Brandon Neel expected back from injury this weekend, and a back-to-back slate against Albany on the horizon, having depth is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. The last thing the Tide can afford is heavy minutes piling up for the starters, and that’s where Edwards becomes a game-changer.

What Tre Brings to the Tide:

• Positional Flexibility: He can slide anywhere from the 2 to the 4 and hold his own defensively. With his length and quickness, he thrives in a positionless system and can switch across the floor without hesitation.

• Floor Spacing: Offensively, he has the ability to knock down shots from deep, forcing defenders to stretch out and respect his range. That opens up driving lanes and allows the Tide to play with better pace and spacing.

• Leadership: On and off the court, Edwards is a communicator and competitor. He brings a calm presence but plays with intensity, setting a tone that will benefit a team still building its identity.

• Defensive Versatility: It’s all about matchups in this league, and Edwards takes pride in guarding multiple positions. He can size up bigger wings, chase guards, or crash the glass—all while bringing physicality and effort.

Simply put: he fills the gaps. The bench gets deeper. The lineups get more creative. And the Tide get stronger.

As the Tide look to shock the league in their upcoming games, adding a player like Edwards gives them another weapon—someone who can adapt, produce, and elevate the team at both ends.

Welcome to the squad, Tre Edwards. Let’s get to work.
