Who is the big guy wearing glasses? Miles Mitchell. Three of the people in the photo are on staff and one is Kyle LeGreair. I see 12 players, 3 staff, and Kyle.

How about your 12 players plus Kuiper and Fuchs plus Kyle = 15. Plus 3 staff, one kid and one Bengal Tiger. I guess Frenchmen is studying back on campus.

I guess Frenchy is on the beach on his lap top trying to find another school he can con another free year out of without putting in the work. If he was in the country he would have been at Comerica with the team!

You’re right…UP. I do not expect to see Frenchmen on the team this season.

The 2 guys that were signed last are walk ons, I can confirm that. Scholarship players are the 11 that were signed + French, Mak, Eman and Ryan. Maybe French doesn’t get eligible with whatever credit type issues, but he is currently on the roster as of right now. Everyone is on campus except him and Ryan K who is a Canadian native.

Alex, I'm curious and you might know. What benefits or perks do walk-ons get? Training table? Housing? Tutoring?

Well then a fantastic job by Monty and his staff. I think the two walk ons might be better and contribute more this season than some of the scholarship players! Looking forward to watching how this works out and if French does not show I hope we let one of the walk ons benefit seeing as they had financial assistance elsewhere and choose to be Titans.

In the social media era getting gear and a cool photoshoot at the beginning of the year seems to sweeten the deal for a lot of guys lol. Realistically though everything but a scholarship check. The walk on’s last year lived in the dorms unless they lived at home.

They could also flex that spot for another scholarship player which would be fine as well. Lots of guys still in the portal.

I have a feeling if Kuiper is given the opportunity he might prove to be the best recruit in this Frosh class and if so he deserves the scholarship!

Just a slight correction. We signed 9 scholarship players. 3 more returned. Tchikou is a ? I hope that upbasketballfan's feeling about Kuiper is close to accurate. There are some interesting players coming in. I want to see Okoro play. He's the huge guy filling up the back right of the Tiger Stadium photo.

Isn’t Okoro also a Canadian?

Initial announcement referred to Okoro as from Nigeria He went to school in the US while Kalambay went to school in Ontario so difference is probably some type of student visa.
