CJ Fredrick 6'3 G (Kentucky) - Transfer Commit

[longtimefan]

He missed the entire 21-22 season with injuries, and seemed not all the way back last year. His two years at Iowa he shot 46.6% from three, 83-178. If he approaches that again, wow.

For comparison,
Lazelle Durden was 38.5% from three
Sean Kilpatrick 41.9%
Steve Logan 43.5%
Darnell Burton 39.4%
Cashmere Wright 34.9%
Landers Nolley 41.7%
Jeremiah Davenport 34.7%

He's a lights out 3 shooter although you couldn't tell that from last season's stats where he was not himself due to injury recovery. We're going to have to hope he returns to his pre-injury form.

He is in fact related to Joe Fredrick. Joe is his uncle.

Can Fredrick play any defense?

I sure hope he does more than shoot. Is he related to the Greenhills Fredricks?

He proved at Iowa he can shoot. Hope he can stay healthy. That’s the real concern here. The talent is there.

If I am not mistaken, Fredrick has played 3 of the last 5 seasons. So he technically should have two years left if he can get the COVID year on top of a medical redshirt (but couldn't blame him after this year for wanting to be done with college). Welcome aboard!

Chad Brendel: Cincinnati beat out strong pushes from Oregon, WVU, Indiana, Ohio State, UNC, Xavier and more for CJ Fredrick. Everyone made a run at him over the weekend, but relationship with Wes Miller was key. Also credit to @Jake_Thelen who I'm told was instrumental. #Bearcats

Justin Williams: #Bearcats MBB lands a commitment from transfer guard CJ Frederick. The 6-foot-3 former Kentucky and Iowa player went to nearby Covington Catholic HS. He struggled with injuries in two seasons at UK but is a knock-down outside shooter, fills a nice backcourt need for Cincinnati.

Jeff Goodman: Cincinnati has landed Kentucky transfer CJ Fredrick. If he gets back healthy, will be a **** of a get for Wes Miller and the Bearcats. Proven elite shooter.

Goodman said h-e-double hockey sticks and this form bleeped it out haha)
