More on DePaul...

DePaul and their third-year head coach Tony Stubblefield started off their 2023-24 season on the wrong foot. They lost an $80,000 buy game at home last night to Purdue Fort Wayne (formerly IPFW) 82-74.
Recap- https://gomastodons.com/news/2023/1...dons-open-season-with-82-74-victory-at-depaul
Box score- https://gomastodons.com/documents/2023/11/8/Box_Score_Purdue_Fort_Wayne_at_DePaul_08_November. pdf

DePaul finished 3-17 (10th place) in the Big East last season in Stubblefield's second season, and this season could be no better.
Purdue Fort Wayne is not exactly a mid-major powerhouse. They finished last season 9-11 in the Horizon League, which ranked 28th in conference RPI. And this season, they were picked 8th out of the 11 teams in the Horizon League preseason poll.
Purdue Fort Wayne has a couple players who played for MVC teams last year. Sophomore guard Jalen Jackson, who played at UIC last year, started and had 13 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists last night. And sophomore forward Maximus Nelson, who played at Valparaiso last season, had 6 points off the bench on 2-3 shooting from the 3-point line.
DePaul has 7 portal transfers from other Division I schools and 3 junior college transfers. One of the juco transfers is also a former MVC player. Keyondre Young played at Valparaiso 2 seasons ago, transferred to Triton College last year, and is now on the DePaul Roster. He did not play last night for DePaul.
 
I hear Bradley is looking at options to fill the open scholarship.
And the coaches hosted a recruit at last night's game.
