I see we have FIFTEEN players on our roster--I thought we can only have Thirteen. Or do the rules say we can only have thirteen on scholarship , thereby making two guys walk-ons ???

It does appear that we have some height--Besides Rajala, will the others contribute right off the bat or ???

Advise THANKS !!!

It's actually 13 scholarships and 2 walk-ons, but the point remains. 13 is in fact the max number of scholarships.

Tyson Smith took the last scholarship, and Eric Porter, who was a walk-on last year, is not listed on the roster for this season.

Sorry Brot, I was thinking of last year. ahunte 1 is right. Walk on Erik Parker is gone & we have our full 13 scholarships filled this year, as opposed to last year.

With talent like Tyler, I am happy we have 13 scholarships this year. 2016-2017 we may really need him when Peterson, White, & Turk, & possibly Doyle graduate.

So there's probably not much of a chance of landing Springfield/Chatham, Illinois native Peyton Allen, who just announced he's transferring from Texas A&M after his Freshman year...

Well, thanks Guys !! Thirteen it is plus walk-ons. I thought so but you confirmed it.

Now then, it looks as if we have added height --Let us hope they can compete-- Rajala and his helpers may be key--Milton and his guys will dp\o just fine as usual.
Christian has left big shoes to fill. Hopefully Porter can rotate our Bigs with confidence.

Allen transferred to Wichita State.

This doesn't bode well for my Roosevelt Smart prediction...

Allen will be a walk-on at WSU during the 2015-16 season and on scholarship for three years following. Conner Frankamp will also be a walk-on at WSU this season, but will be eligible on December 12. WSU has 13 scholarship players and 5 walk-ons.

Wow... Walk-ons the quality of Frankamp and Allen is crazy. I don't know how you find playing time that far down the bench.
