kreed5120 Posted April 28, 2019 Report Posted April 28, 2019 He seemed to settle for more contested 15-18 footers than I'd like, but overall I was impressed with the tape. He does a good job at finishing near the rim, including throwing down some thunderous dunks. Quote
akronzips71 Posted April 28, 2019 Report Posted April 28, 2019 Highlight videos always make it look like the guy scores every time he touches the ball. That being said, he looks to have real potential. 1 Quote

I had higher expectations for him coming in. Granted he came around a bit towards the end of the season. And I have always said that maybe he is showing more in practice than what I am seeing in games. If not, then I would go ahead and cut my losses now. Quote

Watching that whole highlight video Tribble does have the ability to distribute. And he might play all three guard spots before he is done at Akron. Basketball practice at Akron keeps getting more competitive. Very exciting. Go Zips!! Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted April 29, 2019 Report Posted April 29, 2019 Roscoe did not end up being the contributor I thought he would be when I saw him early in the season. That being said, it was his first year of D! basketball. He has enough offensive skills to be a contributor off of the bench. I thunk with more experience things slow down for him, he plays more under control and becomes a spark off of the bench. Quote
Illini Zip Posted April 29, 2019 Report Posted April 29, 2019 Kreed5120 mentioned thunderous dunks. I found a few here on this video. Dunk contest starts just after the 3:00 minute mark (gray shirt, blue shorts). He's got hops. Also, he is interviewed at the very end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgmK46MnwjM 1 Quote

Let'sGoZips94 Posted April 29, 2019 Report Posted April 29, 2019 Tribble is a high percentage shooter - he made 100% of his shots in those videos! There's your Cooper. Difference maker at guard. Love how many high percentage shots he takes, whether it be a mid range jumper or layup/dunk. I think this is a big get, considering college basketball - especially in March - is guard-dominated. 1 Quote

I think this is a big get, considering college basketball - especially in March - is guard-dominated. I was thinking the same thing too. Cooper type player, and we have not had someone with hops like that since ever. Can not only help win games, can also generate some real interest in the team. Meanwhile, as I have stated before, we only ended the season with two D1 players, LCJ and Cheese. Anyone else can be on the chopping block to free up a scholarship, starting with Sayles, who never plays anyway. Quote
