I'm still biased against him due to his size, and, because of that, I still don't think he'll have a pro career anywhere. But I've got to admit that I think he's playing at a level even an notch above where others on my all-timers-list were playing when they wore the blue & gold. Comparing bigs with guards is apples and oranges. But, having said that, my list looks like this: 1. LCJ 2. Rome 3. Wood 4. Jimmal Ball 5. Zeke Marshall 6. Jamie Bosley 7. Tree 8. Q (what's-his-name shooting guard who didn't get along with Tree) 9. Dru Joyce III 10. Tron Jenkins For reference, I began watching Zips basketball religiously during the last year of the Coleman Crawford era. Any list that omits Len Paul as #1 is FAKE NEWS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His list only includes players he's seen play in a Zips uniform. Len Paul would have been before he started following. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In today's game with a shot clock and dunks and 3 point plays Paul would be an Akron God. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw him play but he was my summer basketball camp counselor at Ashland when I was 10 years old. Pretty impressive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both a typo and an autocorrect error in a single post. Lol. Obviously, that should have read, "I LOVED Derrick TARVER." And I did. He's one of my all-time favorites. Mikal Dawson's unique (slightly strange-looking) 3-point stroke kinda reminds me of Derrick's. Edited March 1, 2020 by Blue & Gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
