THE STAGS GET A COMMITMENT from 6’8 Alexis Yetna from Seton Hall! Pumped for this commitment, the kid was a beast when he was on the floor at USF and Seton Hall averaging 10 PPG and 8 RPG in his career. Fairfield finally fills that last roster spot for the 2023-24 season.
Sources tell me tonight that former St Johns PG, Posh Alexander is going to go to Seton Hall. Interesting move but keep an eye on this for tomorrow to all my

Petition to the
@NCAA
bring back the Bracket Buster Games! I thought this was a quirky/fun thing that Mid-Majors would play each other mid-Feb based on how good the team was. I also think it brings exposure to good ones in TV

Now that I have a new Georgetown following, for what it’s worth I spoke to JT3 for a good 30 minutes tonight at an event. He is a great guy, really appreciated his time and he seems super happy with his current role with the Wizards. That is all.
Not the tourney we wanted Fairfield to be playing in but to make the semis tomorrow on ESPN2 is pretty fun! Guys fought hard to not let the lead dwindle away and pull this one out!
Fairfield Fans:
I know everyone has mixed emotions and is confused by everything out there. Let’s not forget about the players in this program, they work their asses off to get to this point and they deserve your support now more than ever. This team is talented and will compete
All I can do is smile! This team man! Huge win over Marist to keep rolling and extent the streak to 8 games! Longest Fairfield streak since 2010-11 (13 years ago) when they won 11 in a row!
This team is together and their guards are something else. Excited for the games to come!
Statement MADE
Fairfield 82
Marist 61

Caleb Fields hit 10 threes and scored 33 points to lead the way.
@mid_madness
W! 20 win! What fight by this team to come back from 16 down at half. Unbelievable effort and unbelievable adjustment by Coach Casey in this second half. Lotta momentum behind this one. I cannot wait for next week‼️
What a team and what a game! Congrats St. Peter’s on your win. You are a great representative for the MAAC and so happy a capable team and Coach won a game in the tournament! It’s been too long!
#MAACGonnaMAAC
WHAT A WIN BY THE STAGS! Started the game 1-22 from the field and they come back and complete the W!
@CoachJayYoung
first win vs Siena and it comes on the road. Huge props to players and coaches in this one. Even with Wojick out and Field struggling the team stepped up.
HOLY COW! What a W by
@StagsWBball
team! They were on the ropes the whole game and the resilience of this team is something else for a team that haven’t played many of these close games.
20 in a row, 20‼️

College bball is filled with ups and downs:
Up: Fairfield making a run to MAAC finals and 20 minutes away from first NCAAT in 28 yrs.
Down: Your 3 returning guards leave your team for more NIL money and decline the chance to come back to finish the job.
College bball is fun…
Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
Well thank you
@CBITourney
for the magical Fairfield shorthanded run to the semis.
Offseason 2024-25 you’re up.
🚨Stags News🚨
@FairfieldMBB
will open the new on campus Arena the first weekend of MAAC hoops which is the first weekend in December. Stay tuned for the announcement of schedules and the opponent. Sounds like OOC schedule could be out this week!
Going to use my platform for a minute. You cannot watch sports live or recaps without talks of gambling and the “odds”.
Our society has desensitized gambling to a point where it is now normalize for “kids” of all ages to be exposed. It’s very popular in young adults/college aged
Temple Men’s Basketball has been flagged by watchdog company U.S. Integrity for unusual wagering activity following the Owls’ 100-72 loss to UAB Thursday.

Kyle Jenkins a 6’7 Forward from Higganum, CT via Lafayette has committed to Fairfield.
Kyle played 4 years in the Patriot League averaging 9.5 PPG, 5.2 RPG and 1.9 APG. He will be a major part of this offense at the 4 next year.
Welcome

Per IG
@moumine_marouf
has committed to Fairfield. The 2023 6’7 versatile lefty held an offer from Bryant and visited FAU in Dec. Hes an NBA Africa Academy product who has played a few years in the states. The Stag got a high upside guard who I think can contribute right away!
If you’re a Fairfield Student please let me know why you should support this team now, January 19th at home vs Saint Peter’s I need the students in full force.

The 6-10 forward averaged 10.5 points and 8.0 rebounds last season. Started his college career at Fairfield.
Dear

and
@USATODAY
,
We would like to apply for a position in your Top-25 rankings.
We would add a 26-1 record and a 24-game winning streak into your group, both second in the country.
Attached is our resume, we look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
#RankTheStags
Still a good feeling from the sources on Hunter to Georgetown. In person visits for Georgetown and Maryland, rest are zooms so those two are the priority. The feeling is he will not go in conference. Kansas making a late push but some question marks loom on that being right.
It was always Fairfield.
While name changes will happen and tough starts will happen, I will never change my fan hood.
We have a talented team and it’s a long season. I have faith in a turnaround! It’s on to the Savannah Tourney.
Good luck to James Johns Jr on his next school and thank you for your contributions the last two years! I hope you’re able to find a good fit to showcase your talent.
Today’s Stags win over Le Moyne now extends their win streak to 6 games which is the 13th in college basketball currently.
They haven’t had a 6 game win streak in the regular season since 2015-16.
Heart is racing from that win. Two final things:
1) Iona fans will have the ultimate “what if”, if Gordon didn’t leave this season.
2) Coach Casey now makes it to his first MAAC Semifinal game in his 7th year as a head coach in the league.
GAMEDAY! Business down in AC for the Stags!
Fairfield beat St Peters twice this year but I expect this to be a close game. Fairfield has won “ugly” last two games and with defense. Let’s hope they can shoot better than 18% and 20% from 3!
It’s business but do I make the trip?
🚨HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT ALERT🚨
Congrats to
@StagsWBball
on this Regular Season Title.
All I gotta say, jobs not done yet. Closers close! Keep it rolling, this season has been special but still a good bit of basketball to play!
Running. Gunning. Winning.
Georgetown senior Supreme Cook has entered the transfer portal.
The 6’9” forward started 32/32 games, averaging 10.5 points on 58% FG, and 8.0 rebounds.
Previously played at Fairfield for three seasons.
Not gonna lie this one really bummed me out. Brycen been at HMs and really played so well here and fit here. I thought one more year was in the cards to finish what Fairfield started. Can’t fault anyone for getting theirs so I wish him luck because he’s a great kid and player!
NEWS: Fairfield Brycen Goodine plans to enter the transfer portal a source told
@TheAthleticCBB
Goodine was a former top-100 recruit that played at Syracuse and Providence before playing his last two seasons at Fairfield
He averaged 13.9 points
@AdamFinkelstein
Let’s be honest, does NCAA care about graduation rates or product on the court?
So if their blue bloods can retool and be really good every year that’s more $$$ and viewers. Always been about the top being the best.
Love the facility for CAA Championship, 4,200 seats for the CAA is perfect size. Now with lack of Flo Sports exposure that’s on the league for sticking with that shitty platform.
Boardwalk Hall in shitty AC next week for the MAAC is 10,500. That’s about 9,000 seats too many…
Some of the Fairfield faithful know about Stags in the Stands. As a former co-president of the club, seeing the student crowd walking into the arena last night couldn’t have made me prouder!
Let’s goooo! Huge W vs one of the best mid majors in the country. Stream was a little hard to follow but I’ll review the box score and fire up a space in the next half hour.
Let’s hope this turns the season around!
STAGS WIN‼️
TJ nets 15 points, Woj scores 9 all in the second half, Supreme puts up 7 and 7, and Jalen Leach goes 4-4 from the stripe in the final 21 seconds to ice it.
Onto Mercer tomorrow night!

BREAKING: Former Fairfield Forward Allan Jeanne-Rose has committed to Pat Sellers and Central Connecticut State. This is a huge pickup for Coach Sellers and AJR could make a big impact in the NEC with his graduate year of eligibility.
