Veteran 6'10" Forward Grinding for Minutes with MTSU Blue Raiders
Senior Christian Fussell, a 6'10", 225-lb forward from Decatur, GA, is back with Middle Tennessee after transferring to UT Martin (1.6 PPG, 2.3 RPG in 2023-24), posting modest 2024-25 stats like 0.7 PPG and 1.0 RPG in limited action.[2][3][6] His differentiator? Proven hustle—career-high 11 points and 6 rebounds off the bench at MTSU (2021-22), plus 103 total rebounds in just 9.8 MPG across three seasons there, showing rebounding tenacity and efficiency (47.1% FG in 2022-23).[1] No major injury flags; he's a gritty role player with three-star prep pedigree who fits teams needing big-man depth, energy, and CUSA experience—perfect for high-intensity bench sparks without ego.[1][8]
