Michael Allen: (SO) 6-foot-0 from Detroit, MI.
"Michael is a pass first point guard," said Muff.
Allen transferred in this season from Daytona Beach Community College (FL).
"Michael really has good quickness and he's strong with the ball," said Muff.
Allen for the season is averaging 4.5 ppg and 4.6 assists. Idaho State-offered and Stephen F Austin are following his progress this spring.
Rudy Meo: (FR) 6-foot-3 from Evanston, IL. Meo played last season at Milford Academy in New Berlin, NY. Rudy is an academic qualifier who could leave after this season with three years left to play at the next level.
"Rudy is a very coachable kid that has a nice pullup jumper," said Muff.
Meo is averaging 10.6 ppg and 4.5 rebounds on the season for the T-birds. Albany and Eastern Illinois have called on 6-foot-3 two guard this spring.
Ricky Jackson: (FR) 6-foot-6 from Canton, OH. Jackson has a chance to leave after this season if his test scores get cleared up through the NCAA Clearinghouse. The power forward who will be a three man at the next level had signed with Western Carolina coming out of high school last season.
"Ricky is very athletic with great hands and has a good faceup game," said Muff.
Jackson is at 14.4 ppg and 5.5 rebounds this season. Tennessee-Chattanooga is really the only school recruiting Ricky at this time.
