Roster 2018-2019

[Big Chuck]

I don't expect them back, but would be happy to have them if Coach takes them. I don't blame two freshman for our problems. They would be back older and wiser. If they buy in to the program and work hard they have plenty of time to have successful careers.

[ptctitan]

Well, they dragged out their original signing announcements and created maximum drama here. Maybe they have decided to wait for the new transfer rules to take effect in mid-October.

[titandave]

Maybe we keep JJJ and JB? Pretty much every university not already in session starts classes in the next few days.

I'm hoping not. First we do not need them and second it is not good to have people wasting scholarships who do not want to be here or be a part of the team. They asked for permission to leave and I wish them well. They need to go. We need players who want to be here and want Davis as a coach.

Totally agree .... we need players who want to be here and want Davis as a coach.

I wish we had one additional rebounder/post player in this group. It seems like we have a nice group of athletes. Let see what coach Davis can mold these guys into.

[77-85Titan]

Who is Brandon?

Who is Brandon?

[NC Titan]

Not much out there other on this player, but going on the comments that he started in Raleigh NC I searched for news of him in Durham, North Carolina. He was mentioned as a student at Mount Zion, and one old posting had this:

Brandon was one of the best 15u players I saw at CP3 Live. He was all over the place on the glass, and had a beautiful mid-range stroke. He could occasionally hit the long ball when he was open. What impressed me most from Brandon was his motor, he had the same high energy level every game. Never let his foot off the gas no matter what the score was. College projection: Mid-Major

We now have an officially unannounced assistant coach.

[Titans03]

Not a surprise from what I was hearing earlier in the summer, but Ed Carter III is officially gone to an NAIA school in Louisiana.

[ptctitan]

In addition to possibilities of Chris Brandon and Juan Parilla, Jr, we may have a Jordan Gorman, a 5'10" PG from Ft. Wayne, IN on the roster. He would be a sophomore.

[ptctitan]

Last year, Gorman played PG at Wright State University's Lake Campus.

This was in the USCAA, a group of 81 small colleges and community colleges.

Good catch! - I saw that twitter account 5 mins ago, but hadn't come up with the name yet

[ptctitan]

Guess we know from the HL press release that McFolley is back;

and, from the Titans' press release that Long is back.

[DetroitBASKETBALL]

Malik Eichler looked good shooting around Calihan today!

[NC Titan]

I thought Eichler was going to Madonna.

[DetroitBASKETBALL]

Come out for self at 2:30pm Thursday to watch practice!

[ptctitan]

We can break down the possible roster this way:

Confirmed Returnees
McFolley G
Long F

Unconfirmed Returnees
Blackshear F/C
Eichler F/C

Officially Announced Recruits
Curry F
Davis G
Holland G
Isiani F
Knight G
Moore F
Nguidjol F

Unannounced Possible Players
Brandon F
Gorman PG
Parilla Jr G
Riley PG
Rosser G/F

This would give us a roster as large as last year's. It would also mean that 3 of these players would be walk-on's.
