Cunningham Commits To Cards (Graduate Transfer)

[shadow force]

New Louisville coach Chris Mack and his staff finally got the recruiting break they needed.

Christen Cunningham, a Georgetown, Kentucky, native, pledged on Monday to spend his last year of college eligibility at Louisville, picking the Cardinals over Arizona State and Oregon State. The 6-foot-1 point guard who graduated from Samford University also visited Ohio State.

As a junior at Samford, Cunningham averaged 11.4 points, 6.3 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game. He shot 35.4 percent from 3-point range.

Cunningham is Samford's all-time assists leader and set the school record for assists in a season with 225 over the 2016-17 campaign.

He started Samford's 2015-16 season opener at Louisville, totaling 15 points and six rebounds.

I was wondering why his name never really came up when we were pursuing graduate transfers. I think he’ll help us a ton next year. Welcome aboard young man!

Agreed. This part caught my eye with Cunningham being Samford's all time assists leader. This team could use a good passer/playmaker.

Right now, we need bodies. Hopefully he can contribute.

Hopefully Cunningham can provide some solid minutes at guard this season. If he can bring more than that it will be a bonus IMO.

But you're right this team needed, and still needs, bodies that can help out. Hoping Mack can reel in a couple more players for this coming season.

He'll definitely help with practice. Also good to have some competition for minutes.
