So with Munchie on board, we now have likely one more wing for the early class. Assuming Tejada and Williamson are gone along with Coleman, Samb, Schmidt, Sek and Doumbia. The rest will probably be transfers. Definitely need some experienced wings. 2026-27 PG Munchie, Barton SG Cole, Sajid SF Chike Ndefo PF Jaquan Womack C Embeya, Holmes

Munchie also had an offer from Manhattan. Considered one of the better on-ball defenders in the 2026 class. I've seen him listed at 5-11, 6-0, and 6-1. Guessing around 6-0, 160, which would be around Dylan's size when he came out of Good Counsel. Not saying he's Dylan, but maybe more of a creator and penetrator. Guys like that have to adjust their play at the next level. Get bigger and stronger to play through contact and then become a playmaker. Good thing is that Sajid is a combo guard and they can play off each other-eventually. When the time comes, they'll need two transfer guards. One wing and one point guard.

Munchie had offers from St. Joe's and Bryant. May have had more, but hasn't updated his Twitter page in two years. https://www.instagram.com/p/DL7W6xUMX39/?hl=en

I assume we’re done with transfers but you never know. In the past, guys have been added a few weeks before the season and some early in the season.

Let's take a look at the competition *-freshman **-redshirt freshman QB S. Brown vs. N. Kent, **W. Watkins, *Andrew Indorf Jack Pellicciotti (r-soph) RB Ike Daniels (5-11, 210) vs. Al Wooten II (6-0, 230, Mercher transfer) **Kahseim Phillips, Trey Engram, *Kemarrion Battles (5-10, 190), *JaVon Ford II (5-11, 195). WR John Dunmore, Zay Perkins, Jaceon Doss, Lukkas Londono. Dunmore is the No. 1. Perkins, Doss, Londono and UConn transfer Jarvis Jones (6-2, 185) will likely compete for playing time. Reynolds and Londono likely will compete for time in the slot though they'll probably share that position similar to last season. Sam Reynolds, **Jacob Zollar, **Cleveland Charlton. I don't see any true freshmen playing but next season, with Reynolds, Dunmore, Perkins and Londono gone, they'll get a chance to play. TE Peyton Faulkner (6-3, 240 from Kent State), CJ Schaefer (6-3, 235), Bryce Butler (6-2, 250, Ohio transfer) all will compete for playing time. **Jordan Stallworth (6-4, 200), **Luke Baldwin (6-4, 220), *Jack Mahoney (6-5, 230) OL LT Dan Volpe (6-6, 320), Sahli Bhullar (6-6, 305) LG Jaelin Montgomery (6-3, 310), Joden Nelson (6-4, 295) C KJ Brooks (6-3, 300), Ian Markham-Miller (6-3, 310) RG Jean Germain (6-6, 335) RT **Mike Williams (6-6, 310, Fla Transfer), T'Khi Alexander (6-6, 290) Nelson and Markham-Miller can play enter and guard. The big question is whether Brooks moves from right tackle to guard or center or whether Mike Williams is ready to play right away. Does Montgomery move to guard or will he start at right tackle, where played last season when Brooks was injured. LT and RG seem to be the only definitive spots, but there is plenty of talent and experience with Montgomery, Brooks, Williams, Alexander, freshman Mekhi Cousar (6-6, 315) and Derick Tossah (6-5, 320) DL **JR Stegall (6-3, 295), Shamir Boyd (6-2, 290), **Aaron Clark (6-0, 300). That was my depth charter after the spring. This will be the most interesting and important competition of the summer since there was so much lost. The biggest question is where and how much time will 3*DT and former Maryland commit Asaiah Hammond (6-5, 280) get? Then you have San Diego State transfer Wyatt Draeger (6-4, 285) and JMU transfer Treyvon Adams (6-1, 280). JT Black (5-11, 265) from Lenior-Rhyne and Keiser could also be in the mix. Was 3x all-conference and 1x All-American. LB Rodney Roane (6-2, 240) is back OLB Shamar Graham (6-1, 225, Va. Union transfer), CJ McClendon (6-1, 200) ILB Myles Tuner (6-2, 250), UMass transfer, Branson Peters (6-1, 220), Alfred Thomas (6-1, 225) (Notes: More competition with Ja'Mez Drummer (6-1, 225), the ODU senior added. He sounds more like an edge or 5 technique. Graham is a definite starter and I believer Turner is the inside backer. After that, they have a ton of options with Brandon Peters, Alfred Thomas, CJ McClendon, who all have experience. Roand should be in the mix somewhere. Then you have true freshmen like Alijah Hammond (6-2, 205) and Chris Koffi (6-1, 225), who are super talented.) Safety Xavier Terry and Jasin Shiggs vs. Kaden White, Mike Swain, Bryan Lodge (6-3, 200, NE Oklahoma A&M) *Kyron Grayson (6-0, 175) CB Myles Brodie, Zakaa Brown/Emiril Gant/Carnell Davis (6-1, 185 Duquesne grad transfer)/**Shamir Johnson (6-0, 175). (Notes: Coach Shinnick has shown that he'll play true freshmen in the secondary. Kavon McKinney (6-1, 165) from Sanford, Fla., Grayson from St. Peter's Prep (NJ), Khemani Williams (6-1, 185) from Orlando, Cody Williams (6-0, 180) from DeMatha, Cordell Jefferson (6-2, 175) from St. Frances could all be in the mix in the fall.) Kicker Caden Williams, *Zaydaan Faridi, *Owen Scheihing, *Ryan Leff Punter Bryce LaFollete

I guess. Even if we made the basketball tournament, not sure some HS football player from California is going to know our name. We need a Meggett or Landeta in the NFL to help our the brand, just like it did in the late eighties, early nineties and probably helped add students from New Jersey and New York. Unfortunately, that's not likely unless Carter Runyon becomes the new Mark Andrews/Travis Kelce/Brock Bowers.

https://towsontigers.com/sports/football/roster?view=2 No transfer QB. Freshman Andrew Indorf (6-1,195) from Miami will likely be given a shot. But a couple of transfers added at WR in Jarvis Jones (6-2, 185) from UConn, who is a redshirt sophomore. Here are the other additions since the spring. Most were brought up in the transfer thread. *WR Jarvis Jones (6-2, 185, UConn), r-soph. *TE Bryce Butler (6-2, 250, Ohio U.), grad student, Bowie, Md, St. John's College (HS) *TE Peyton Faulkner (6-4, 245, Kent State), freshman, Pittsburgh *RB Al Wooten II (6-0, 230, Duke/Mercer), Grad student, Memphis. Solid numbers at FCS. Didn’t play much at Duke. *OL Michael Williams (6-6, 310, Florida), r-freshman, Upper Marlboro C.H Flowers HS *LB Myles Turner (6-1, 255, UMass), grad student, Wheaton, Bullis School *LB Ja'Mez Drummer (6-1, 225, ODU), senior, Samford, Fla. *LB Shama Graham (6-1, 225, Va. Union), Grad Student, Richmond *DL Wyatt Draeger (6-4, 285, San Diego State) Grad Student, Reno, Nevada *DL Treyvon Adams (6-1, 275, JMU), r-freshman, Rome, Ga. *DB Carnell Davis (6-1, 185, Duquesne), Grad Student, Melbourne, Fla. *DB Bryan Lodge (6-3, 200, NE Oklahoma A&M), junior, West Park, Fla. *DB Nigel Henderson (5-10, 175, Stonehill), Calvert Hall HS

Interesting to see an offer for another two-guard after we just got a commitment from one, though Mani Sajid (24th-ranked SG), is also considered a combo guard. I see us probably adding 3 HS players in the early class, but a PG is a must with DWill graduating and likely transferring for his last season. Will be checking out the team at least once next week. Hearing a bunch of guys added weight over the summer. Can't wait to see a bulkier Tejada (235ish) and Embeya (gained 15lbs). Brandon Holmes, a the big freshman from Mount St. Joe's (6-9, 240) apparently has been a surprise. Not sure if he's going to redshirt or not.

He's from California, has two other FBS offers and runs a 4.47. Probably never heard of us.

https://towsontigers.com/news/2025/7/9/tiger-athletic-fund-towson-athletics-officially-launches-student-athlete-resource-fund.aspx Towson Athletics and the Tiger Athletic Fund are proud to announce the launch of the Student-Athlete Resource Fund, available as of July 1, 2025, to support the revenue-sharing efforts of Towson Athletics. This fund was created in collaboration with the Towson University Foundation in response to the recent "House Settlement," which allows universities to opt into new roster management, scholarship, and revenue-sharing models for student-athletes. The Student-Athlete Resource Fund is designed to empower Towson student-athletes through enhanced scholarship support and Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities, ensuring TU remains competitive at the highest levels of collegiate athletics. "The Student-Athlete Resource Fund is a vital component to keeping Towson Athletics competitive in today's evolving collegiate landscape," said Director of Athletics Dr. Steve Eigenbrot. "As the environment changes, providing additional resources to our student-athletes is critical to our department's success." As the Tiger Athletic Fund begins Fiscal Year 2026, a key priority will be securing support from donors who are committed to maintaining TU's competitiveness in the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) and across the NCAA. Each year, the Tiger Athletic Fund raises over $1 million from 2,500 donors and is currently in the midst of the Campaign for Excellence, a $12 million capital initiative to improve the Field House and Towson Center Gym. "This fund is a game-changer for our program," said Head Men's Basketball Coach Pat Skerry. "It will directly help us retain top talent and attract new student-athletes." At the fund's launch this spring, a generous donor contributed $100,000 and pledged an additional $100,000 if supporters raise a matching $100,000. To date, $45,000 has been raised toward that goal, with the aim of reaching the full match by the start of basketball season. All donations to the Student-Athlete Resource Fund are tax-deductible and will have an immediate impact, supporting TU student-athletes on the field, in the classroom, and beyond.

Btw, Hairston had talent but I do not like selfish point guards. And I know he had other issues but I’ll never forget in the last game at the Towson Center against Hofstra when he had a 2-0 fastbreak with I believe Marcus Damas in front of him for a big dunk and instead he took it himself for the slam. The thing I like about Sajid is that he can also pass the ball and is considered a combo guard. Needs to get bigger by 2026 and the release could be a little quicker but everyone has something to work on.

Tyler Tejada and Dylan Williamson were no stars. I've been looking at these rating systems for a long time and they are certainly not an exact science. Other than looking at their highlights or just games, my next judge is how many solid D1 schools have offered them. East Carolina, St. Joe's, Penn State, Xavier, and Temple.

Let’s hope he’s not like Hairston. We’ve had some three star guys in the past. Embeya, Womack, Solomon Uyaelunmo, Jeff Prophete and Deon Jones according to 247.
