When we remove the St. Peter’s / Merrimacks of the world and look at +/- va top 100 opponents( 9 game sample), this is where we are:

1. Harper +9.9
2. Bailey +5.7
3. Acuff +4.2
4. Grant +3.3
5. Somerville +1.9
6. Ogbole +1.1

Negative:

7. JWill -1.0 (+3.6 last year)
8. Derkack -2.3
9. Jmike -4.3 (+0.4 last year)
10. Martini -4.3
11. Hayes -8


This methodology is by no means perfect and has its shortcomings, but glad we’ve tightened the rotation. And a healthy Dylan is a game changer. Big difference in replacing negative mins (derkack) with someone like grant in the rotation. Let’s keep it going.

I dont think you can remove the teams not in top 100 considering RU lost to Princeton and Kennesaw State...those stats and those stats in wins vs cupcake are indeed part of the picture of this team

Here's a stat-hole in this analysis...

When Harper is out, he cannot register a negative.. so in that game with no Harper and the game with teh ghost of Harper (where he played little) we were short-handed and every other player got some minus time.

Harper's minutes when to everyone else who had to play without Harper
