Whitcomb was a professional basketball owner of the Grand Rapids Flight and later the Holland Blast of the International Basketball League. In 2006, Tyler won the Executive of the Year when both teams made it to the IBL final four out of 29 teams.  He also began his career as a scout with multiple pro leagues that same year. Whitcomb broke down film for Synergy Sports Technology doing NBA, College, and International games while running pro exposure camps and youth camps in West Michigan. In 2012 Tyler was back in the high school ranks at Tri Unity Christian as the Varsity Girls Basketball Coach with a stint at Grandville before ending up at West Michigan Aviation Academy.
