Can't wait to watch in person!
Schedule (10-3)
Offense: 40th in KenPom efficiency
Schedule (10-3)
- 29th toughest schedule
- Best OOC wins over Texas, Michigan, California, Rutgers, Wagner and Yale (all top 150 teams)
- OOC losses
- 11/22 76-79 to Ohio State. Ohio State was 11-22 from deep while Seton Hall was 5-23. EJ Liddell had a heck of a game
- 12/29 65-70 to Providence. Providence had five scorers in double digits led by Noah Horchler. Seton Hall was 4-19 from deep.
- 1/1 67-73 to Villanova. Hall shot well from deep (7-19), but only 40% from two. Starting lineup only had 33 points total. 21 from Gillespie.
- 29th tallest team in the NCAA
- Their small lineup has Aiken and Harris in the backcourt with Rhoden and Yetna at the 4 & 5
- Their big lineup includes Richmond at the point, Cale/Rhoden at wings and take your pick with any of their F/Bigs. 6’6, 6’6, 6’6, 6’8-6’10, 6’10-7’2
- Last I checked, Tyrese Samuel is a GTD. He hasn’t played since 12/12 (for reasons unknown).
Offense: 40th in KenPom efficiency
- Rhoden is their leading scorer (16.4p), but only about a ½ of shots from deep and leads team in FTAs.
- Aiken averages 12.2. About half shots from deep and 2nd in team in FTAs.
- Next six scorers average between 6.9 ppg (Richmond) and 10.8 ppg (Samuel)
- Obiagu is their only rotation player who does not average a 3pa/game.
- They play fast (33rd in offensive tempo)
- They don’t turn the ball over (21st lowest turnover %)
- They get to the line well (61st FTA/FGA ratio)
- They are 227th in fg% including an ugly 29.8 from deep (302th in nation)
- Just an OK offensive rebounding team (140th in offensive rebound %)
- Four defenders average 1.5+ steals/game (Rhoden, Aiken, RIchmond, Cale)
- Obiagu is an elite rim protector (2.6 blocks/game) while Samuel is good (1.2 blocks/game), if he plays.
- Elite perimeter D (7th in nation in opponents 3p% at 25.9%). Opponents only shoot 31.9% of their shots from three, which is the 31st lowest rate nationally.
- Excellent defensive rebounding (28th defensive rebounding rate)
- They don’t cause a lot of turnovers (174th in turnover rate). If they do cause turnovers, its from blocks and steals. Their non-steal TO% is just 281st in the nation.
- When they get teams to the line, they tend to foul the good shooters (78.9 opponents’ ft%).
