Bradley Basketball Adds Walk-On

[Bobby Parker]

Former manager Jackson Kane returns to Bradley as a non-scholarship addition for the Braves: http://www.bradleybraves.com/ViewArt...CLID=209661687

the article says "one of seven newcomers"...
but wouldn't Shaw be considered a newcomer, too - thus we have eight who are wearing the BU uniform for the first time
(Thomas, Jones, Sutherland, Kane, Amerson, Cunningham, Morgan, Shaw)

Matter of semantics I think. Shaw was on the team last year, this guy makes the seventh guy new to the official roster.

but this guy was also part of the team previously but not eligible

As noted in Bobby's article, Jackson Kane played at Monmouth-Roseville HS, then spent his freshman year at Bradley as a team manager. He played at Southeastern Community College in West Burlington, Iowa last season, and was a teammate of Bradley junior Warren Jones.
Here are Jackson Kane's stats last year at SCC-

It's not that he was ineligible, he was a team manager, so not on the roster.

Mike shaw meanwhile was officially listed on the team web page, had a jersey/his own number, and was included in the team picture, things Kane wasn't. That is why they are saying he is a new comer. New to the web page at the very least.

OK...I guess it's whatever people want to define, but a lot of sources have been referring to Shaw as a newcomer this year, and including him with all the other newcomers - LINK
...and Grier and Anthony Fields were hailed as newcomers last year after they had sat out their redshirt year by the exact same source that doesn't count Shaw as a newcomer this year....
