"I have a high regard for Ty’s coaching and teaching ability and admire his enthusiasm, effort, and the time he has spent to help develop young athletes.  He has strong work ethic and a desire to see his players succeed both in the classroom and on the court.  He understands the game of basketball and the discipline and coaching it takes to win—both are key ingredients to success."

-Mark Montgomery

"My experiences with Ty McGregor have all been extremely positive; he is a person with a great love for the game of basketball and a deep passion for teaching and building teams.  Ty has a genuine enthusiasm for people.  He has the ability to teach the game of basketball and its fundamental parts in a way that players understand.  As a player, Ty was a tremendous competitor who loved to train and prepare himself properly—he brings this same work ethic to any task with which he is involved.  It comes as no surprise that Ty McGregor has earned such a high level of respect within the basketball community in the state of Michigan.  In addition to having the skills and experiences needed to play and coach the game of basketball, he is also honest, loyal, and extremely dedicated."

"Since the day I recruited Ty McGregor to play basketball at Oakland University, I always figured he would one day become a coach.  As a player, Ty was what every coach would want.  He played hard, smart, and was a great fan favorite.  He was a 'run the team' point guard; a coach on the floor who was instrumental in taking our team to NCAA tournaments.  As a person, Ty is an outstanding young man who served as a role model for all young fans."

-Greg Kampe

Men’s Basketball Coach

Oakland University

"I’ve known Ty for over 20 years as a high school student-athlete who was being recruited to Oakland University to a student-athlete and a college graduate-and in all cases he has carried himself with a dignity and class that any town would be proud to call their own.  As a point guard he was a 'coach on the floor' who not only knew what each and every player should do on each play and/or defensive assignment, but also a leader that knew and cared about his teammates and coaches on and off the floor.  Ty will inspire players to work hard on the game and will teach them to love even more than they already do the game and the self discipline that comes with aspiring to do their best, that will teach the many life lessons that are needed with all walks of their life.  Ty will aspire young athletes to be well disciplined, driven, caring adults that will aspire to be more than they could ever dream of."
