Fairleigh Dickinson

Game is Saturday at 2:30

They are horrible. 2-8 with wins over FDU-Florham (whatever that is) and Lipscomb. Somehow they only lost by 8 @Ohio State. But Seton Hall, Iona, St. Peter's, Army, Fordham and Rutgers have all beaten them by double digits.

They are #288 in KenPom. #150 AdjO #344 AdjD and #188 AdjT.

We should pretty much be able to name our score.

Fairleigh Dickinson 57

More and more minutes for the 2nd unit. Keep getting these guys time on the floor whenever we can.

I think it's fair to say we will be 9-2 after Saturday lol. Working on getting some tickets now.

Like Jake said lets work with the second unit.

Things I would like to see:
3 points go in. Lets get more than 6 3 pointers and Caupain with at least with 2 of those. Would love to Jarron stay hot.
Dunks and more dunks. Lets get some fast break dunks. get the 6500 fans that will be there on their feet.

Just blow through these next two opponents and on to conference play. I truly believe no more than 2 or 3 more losses this year. Fans will start to come especially with better conference opponents and a ranking of top 20 or better.

Cumberland and Jenifer should each get 25-30 minutes. Unfortunately, I bet KJ still get a few more than them.

On paper this the worst buy game that we have.

#288 in Kenpom
#150 in Offensive Efficiency
#344 in Defensive Efficiency (only 7 teams in D1 that are worse defensively)

* Not a good 3 point shooting team
* Terrible at defending the 3 and even worse at defending the 2
* Very undersized Guards, typical lineup has 3 guys listed at 6'1
* 1 really good 3 point shooter and 1 decent one. Darian Anderson shoots 41%
* They do a pretty good job at protecting the ball (41th in the country in TO%)
* dreadful offensive rebounding team and even more dreadful at allowing offensive rebounds

My guess is that we put up 85-100 points and allow 65 at max. Would expect TC, Washington, Clark and Evans to all play less than 20 minutes each.

Really would love to see Mick start the backup and just see how it goes.



FD made the tourney last year but mostly out of luck. This game is going to hurt our RPI even if we win. Its one game I wish wasn't on the schedule

Thank Michigan for this.

[jacobkdoyle]

I thought Marshall was the replacement for Michigan?

[Bearcat513]

Oh, I thought I saw/ heard that FD was added in replacement.

[Bearcat_NTS]

FDU was the replacement game for Michigan.
