MIDDLE TENNESSEE BLUE RAIDERS NEWS

Drops double figures in loss Shuler (undisclosed) had 18 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3PT, 6-6 FT) and three assists in 28 minutes of action during Saturday's 82-67 loss to Western Kentucky.

Impact Shuler had not played in over a month heading into Saturday's game but picked up right where he left off as he scored in double figures for the fifth straight game. The 6-2 junior is proving to be one of the Blue Raiders' most reliable scorers and could very well find his way back into the starting lineup soon if he continues to be effective with his shot.

Plays 21 minutes in return Johnson (undisclosed) had nine points (3-7 FG, 3-4 3PT), two steals, a rebound and an assist in 21 minutes of action during Saturday's 82-67 loss to Western Kentucky.

Impact Johnson had missed five straight games with an undisclosed issue but was able to return Saturday and play a season-high 21 minutes. Johnson has started 47 games over the last two seasons but it seems as though head coach Nick McDevitt favors using the 6-5 junior off the bench rather than in the starting five. Look for Johnson to be active once again Sunday against Western Kentucky as he looks to halt a three-game losing skid.

Plays two minutes in return Fussell (undisclosed) scored three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) across two minutes on Friday's loss against Southern Mississippi.

Impact Fussell missed three straight games before returning Friday, but his return to action shouldn't affect a lot of fantasy rosters -- he has played a combined four minutes all season long and holds a minimal role in Middle Tennessee State's rotation.

Logs six minutes Coleman-Jones (undisclosed) had one point in six minutes of action in Friday's game against Southern Mississippi.

Impact Coleman-Jones was one of five MTSU players placed in the team's COVID-19 protocol which forced him to miss the FIU series last weekend. The 6-10 center had previously started in four straight games but came off the bench Friday and saw a season-low six minutes as the Blue Raiders fell behind big against Southern Miss. It's unclear if Coleman-Jones will return to the starting unit for Saturday's contest or if head coach Nick McDevitt will continue to put out a smaller lineup.

Won't play Saturday Fussell is unavailable for Saturday's game against Florida International, Oliver Baltz of Rvials.com reports.

Impact Fussell has appeared in just two games for the Blue Raiders this season as he's buried down the depth chart. It's currently unclear why he's unavailable for Saturday but his absence will merely just leave the team with a little less depth in their frontcourt.

Out again Saturday Mitchell (undisclosed) won't be playing Saturday against Florida International, according to Oliver Baltz of Rivals.com.

Impact Mitchelll missed Friday's contest and will also be absent Saturday -- he joins a long list of absentees for this weekend. Mitchell being out shouldn't be anything new, though, as he has logged just one minute this season while missing six of the team's seven previous games. His next chance to return will come Jan. 15 at Southern Mississippi.

Missing FIU clashes Coleman-Jones didn't play Friday against FIU and will also miss Saturday's rematch, Oliver Baltz of Rivals.com reports.

Impact Coleman-Jones is one of five MTSU players who will not be available for either of this weekend's pair of games. The program had to cancel some games due to COVID-19 issues, so it's quite possible that is the reason Coleman-Jones will be out again Saturday. His next opportunity to retake the floor arrives next Friday in the first of a pair of games Friday and Saturday versus Sothern Miss.

Not playing Saturday Johnson (undisclosed) won't play Saturday's game against Florida International, according to Oliver Baltz of Rivals.com.

Impact Johnson missed Friday's contest and will also be absent Saturday -- he joins a long list of absentees for this weekend. Johnson, who is averaging just 2.0 points across 9.4 minutes per game off the bench this season, will attempt to return for the Jan. 15 game at Southern Mississippi.

Out for weekend series Shuler missed Friday's game versus FIU and will also sit out Saturday, Oliver Baltz of Rivals.com reports.

Impact Shuler had compiled four straight double-digit efforts and made his first start in the team's last game, so it's an unfortunate time to be on the shelf. There's a chance he could be back in action for next weekend's pair of contests against Southern Miss, but look for Donovan Sims to see big minutes again Saturday in his stead.
