HACKENSACK – How do you quantify the impact of the most significant upset in NCAA Tournament history?
At Fairleigh Dickinson University, following the men's basketball team's astonishing victory over top-seeded Purdue in March, online apparel sales surged by 327 percent over a six-month period.
However, the most evident outcome is visible within the Rothman Center, where the Knights now boast a revamped locker room, a newly designed court featuring a fresh logo, and the program's very first "team room" for meetings and film analysis. Interestingly, the location of the team room used to be a communal shower area, a vestige from the past (modern players now use dorm showers).
In the previous season, that humble cinderblock shower room served a purpose. It was the sole place on campus where the Knights could convene privately to review game footage. The film projector was precariously perched on a box placed on a Gatorade bucket, surrounded by stools. It's a situation that almost sounds unbelievable.
FDU head coach Jack Castleberry often reminds his players, "This is how we defeated Purdue." This statement is both a factual account and a symbol of their triumph. The Big Ten champions, who watch their film in a luxurious theater with leather recliners, were unable to withstand the gritty determination of the underdog. As FDU undergoes well-deserved upgrades, Castleberry urges the Knights to preserve their competitive edge.
