Edwards, who graduated over the summer with a degree in liberal arts from New Mexico, will attend graduate school at Alabama, making him immediately eligible to suit up for the Tide in 2015-16. He brings some much needed experience to the Crimson Tide roster that boasts only one senior (Retin Obasohan) entering the upcoming season.
“We are excited to welcome Arthur Edwards to our program,” head coach Avery Johnson said. “Arthur fills a need for us as he brings plenty of experience, athleticism and leadership to our team. His size and length will certainly help us defensively.
