New BYU walk-on, Townsend Tripple. 6’8 forward from Rocky Mtn high in Boise

I really hope he's good at 3's

Lohner's defense is horrible. Just stands around a lot. Nice to see Tripple

Don’t know. 5”10 high jump in track is all I can see

4/13/20 9:11pm
I jumped 5’10” in high school. Doesn’t mean much.
Florwood
4/13/20 9:30pm
I didn’t do track, is 5”10 harder for a tall guy?
BYUfan92
4/13/20 9:39pm
It’s more the frame/weight than height. I was 5’10”/145 lbs.
Florwood
4/13/20 9:45pm
5'10" is kind of what separates those who have a shot at being a real high jump
DJROSS
4/14/20 9:21am
LOL. You're right. Lohner looked awful out there.

Horribly lazy on the defensive boards too. Must be an anomaly.

Caleb is an incredibly talented player. His issue is the little things. He does most of the big things well.

I've certainly seen less-impressive highlight vids about highly touted players.

Good find, thanks. Wondering if his dad is Tennison Tripple, anybody know?
BYUfan92

Nope, that's not his dad.

Ok. I knew Tennison was a hs coach in the Boise area a few years ago.

Reminds me of Nixon - not bad, now if he only leaves it on the floor like Nixon

Reminds me of Stephen Rogers and Britton Johnson

He doesn’t look like a sharpshooter like Rogers
puntersarepeople
4/14/20 5:21pm
He's a one-footed jumper.
No touching
4/14/20 12:49pm
Hmmm. Video doesn't appear to agree with you.
FanofBYU
4/14/20 2:52pm
Pretty sure it does. 10 dunks off one foot, 1 off of two in those highlights. That's fine. It can be a big advantage
No touching
4/14/20 3:03pm
You said jumpers. I thought you were referring to jump shots. Many of his dunks
FanofBYU
4/14/20 4:07pm
I actually said he's a one-footed jumper, if you look above. I saw that he can dunk off of two feet, but he seems to
No touching

He may develop the ability to jump off of two feet

Rose retired and BYU hired Mark Pope from UVU to coach the men's basketball team

One site says he averaged 25 and shot 65% from the field. Video shows lots of 3s

Ummmm, why isnt this guy gonna be on scholarship?
puntersarepeople
4/13/20 10:48pm
Likely will be. COVID has created all sorts of messes
Big Papi
4/14/20 7:48am
Do you know that he would've been on scholarship post-mission or is that just
puntersarepeople

Complete speculation based on the film. He looks good against good talent
Big Papi

I agree

He looks really good. Shows really good mobility for someone his size. Loved his

Maybe if he can put on some weight

Yeah, he’ll need to. He benches 155 and squats 240...

I don't know if he can move well enough to be better than Harding

Agree. Harding is a really good athlete.

Harding has got good size and coordination

Had nagging injuries this season but showed more explosiveness later in season and Freshman yr.

It's true that his knee was hurt for a while

I think based on his tape, a pretty good potential comp

ThorLebowski

Noah's brother Jacob would be an even better comp....

I'm not sure that's true.

4/14/20 8:31am
I think a better comp might be Fred Roberts...
icecougar

At this point he's still more of a wing

4/14/20 9:43am
Except Tripple has better mobility and can put the ball on the floor...
