[*]Last game: 67-73 loss v Nova. Started hot but, as Donny Marshall said “started looking for fool’s gold” after the rested on the laurels of their mirage shooting stats and forced bad jumpers. [/LIST] [B]Roster Report[/B] [LIST] [*]Aiken missed last nine seven with a concussion. Seton Hall has been 4-3 during that time.

Jamir Harris is their only rotation player under 6’6. [LIST] [*]Their two most common lineups (combined ⅓ of minutes) include Richmond-Cale-Rhoden-Obiagu w/ either Yetna or Jackson as the 4. When you average that out, that’s 6’8 220!!! [/LIST] [*]Whenever Richmond is on the bench, they run “point guard less” rotations (Harris averages just 0.4 assists/game and if Aiken doesn’t play, Rhoden would be their leading assist guy (1.2 assists per game) whenever Richmond is off the court [/LIST] [ATTACH type="full"]73317[/ATTACH] [B]Offense: 63rd in KenPom efficiency (40th last time we played them)[/B] [LIST] [*]They play fast (57th in offensive tempo, down from 33rd last time we played them) [*]Their turnover ratio rate is 129th best in the nation, which has increased quite a bit since we’ve last played them (21st lowest turnover %).
