Koby certainly is an outstanding athlete, who is very impressive at dunking the ball. Since his entire highlight reel just shows dunks, I am not getting too excited about him yet. The winning teams at RMU have always relied heavily on outside shooting from the two and three positions. According to the City of Basketball Love article, he "needs to develop his skill set, starting with a more consistent jump shot." Hopefully his next highlight reel will show him knocking down some 3s.
In talking to a few people out this way (Philly) who have covered him extensively, he has really developed his game over the past year or so and had a huge summer. He even got an offer from VCU.
Here is a another great piece on his commitment to RMU: http://www.cityofbasketballlove.com/news_article/show/694930?referrer_id=1566508
