Massey has Northeastern as a 9 point favorite (75-66) at the Hart. He gives the Huskies a 77% chance for the win.
The Huskies have a record of 2-1 (5 point home wins over BU and Harvard and a 9 point loss at UMass)

Northeastern makes good use of their ability to redshirt players. Roland shows just what can come of that (at least in most of college basketball outside of thePL with its few redshirt players).

Jordan wasn't really redshirted. He transferred from GWU and had to sit out a year per NCAA regulations. In most cases a transfer into the PL would be in exactly the same situation. Eboigbodin also transferred into Northeastern and sat out a year for the same reason. |

Northeastern is not a four year college. It is actually a five year college with lots of required co-ops. I'm not sure how things work out with scholarship numbers, but theoretically everyone could red shirt as a freshman and then play years 2-5 |

We've got to get better on defense in my opinion. If you look at KenPom's "efficiency" numbers you see that our opponents all had their best games against us. Maryland's offensive efficiency (same as our defensive efficiency by definition) was 124.4 against HC and 100.1 versus URI. UNH's was 116.6 against HC and 82.4 versus St John's. Fairfield's was 101.7 against HC and 93.7 vs Bucknell and 96.2 vs UMass.

That is not the case in most leagues. |

Not true rgs. Mike Cavataio, for example, played a year at St. John’s, sat a year at HC, then played 3 at HC.

I am not arguing our D has been good, but maybe not as bad as these numbers indicate. As is the offense, a work in progress, hopefully. |

Usually I am cautious enough to include my customary caveat "different teams, different, venues, etc" but neglected to do so in this case. |

KenPom takes into account the strength of opponent in his defensive and offensive metrics. |

Harvard gets all the mid major buzz in the Boston area, but imho Northeastern in the Coen era doesn't have to take a back seat to them.

Jordan wasn't really redshirted. He transferred from GWU and had to sit out a year per NCAA regulations. In most cases a transfer into the PL would be in exactly the same situation. Eboigbodin also transferred into Northeastern and sat out a year for the same reason. Not exactly, they do sit out a year when they transfer but also lose a year of eligibility in the PL. That is not the case in most leagues. No. Players who sit out a year because they transferred do not lose a year of eligibility in the patriot league. |

Looking forward to seeing Greg Eboigbodin as well. 6’9” Nigerian from U-D Jesuit in Detroit and teammate of Cassius Winston and Ekechukwu (“Ike”) Eke, another 6’9” Nigerian. HC had scouted and expressed interest in both Greg and Ike. Greg started his career as a freshman at Illinois two years ago and got some playing time as a freshman. Not sure why he transferred. Ike went to Marquette and apparently suffered a serious injury which may have been career ending.
Greg is a very good defender and rebounder. Not much offensive game (at least when he was in HS). He will present a challenge to our bigs
