-- I hear you GoBroncs

Hard to find complete stats on Tristan or the Coffeyville Ravens ...

and like you say 6ppg in JC is not a lot ... must be some reason the coaches were willing to go to Kansas for a player

from what I can find it appears that Tristan was mostly??? a role??? player (non-starter with about 10-12 minutes of PT) he did have multiple double-digit scoring games (at least four) and led or shared scoring honor on at least a couple of occasions ... on a couple of occasions he scored the go-ahead baskets in come-from-behind wins ...

at 6-8 he was the tallest member of his team so I would imagine his "role" at SCU will be different than at Coffeyville ... which did place 5th in the National JC tourney ... so this was no slouch team he was playing on ... and behind slouch players

I am guessing that there is more here than 6ppg and 5 fouls it appears his numbers are about the same as Jim Howell's in about half the time (the only negative were the about 3 PF's per game in limited minutes) ... I would say that is something that was part of the role ... or the reason he didn't get as much PT ... in either case that might be part of what needs to be worked on ... but personally I would prefer to have a Travis back down a bit than try and "teach" someone to be more aggressive ... if he can produce say 12ppg & 8rbs in 20-25 min that would be very nice


(sorry for the duplication --- posted the reply in the wrong place)

Perkins was a great pickup, who also averaged 25 ppg in JUCO. Parham is reminicent of Linden Tibbets: non -starter, very succesful HS school program,single digit ppg and rpg. After 2 seasons and three years at SCU, Linden (who appears to be the most athletic of the bronco bigs) seems to be coming around.We'll see if the promise he showed in the last few games is more than illusory. Parham only has 2 years and needs to contribute immediately. Granted, he was on a team that has 4-6 Div 1 players on it in one of the toughest JUCO regions in the country, but with Perkins and Bailey graduating next year,6 and 4 in JUCO does not get you excited. Immediate front court help on both sides of the court is key. Hopefully Henke,TP, Denison et al can provide it. The coaches are still out beating the bushes to find some more players.All in all the recruiting class isn't bad. Henke and Angley are potential starters; one more "impact" recruit and the class would have to be consisidered a success (at least on paper).The proof will be in the record.
