Thats the whole thing about red-shirting. Your on the team and practice, but you don't actually play in games. Red-shirts can dress I believe. I remember Bubu Palo dressing for games when he was a freshman, and Aaron Law dressed for games last year too if I remember right. I do remember Babb, Allen, Booker and White sitting in cyclone alley though. So who knows? I don't think SDW has been dressing

He has been

Does he dress for the games? There were only 2 players that didnt get in last game and i believe Law was one of them and im not sure who the other one was. I was assuming it was sdw but i didnt realize that red shirts were allowed to dress. Just curious.

He can dress any game he wants based on the fact that at any moment the coach could pull his red-shirt. Even though the coaches know he isn't going to play he can still travel with the team "just in case" they want to pull it. He travels more for fun/scout team purposes/travel experience.

1.)He has almost identical stats to McGee.
2.)He's the only shooter on the team so he gets keyed on a lot. He will be solid!

1.) He does? McGee shot 49% on 3-pointers at CC in 2010-11.
2.) A nice way of saying poor shot selection?

You really think Bluford will pan out? I'm kinda on the fence on how his productivity will be.

Yes, I do.

Better hope he doesn't see this and transfer.

You're right I forgot that McGee had 49% that's my bad. I'm sure he takes some bad shots and he likely won't be as good as McGee but I think he will be a big asset off the bench!

KJ is also shoots 10.3 of their 21.8 three pt shots attempts per game. Then another kid shoots 6.2 attempts per game. KJ is shooting a ton of shots and is their leading scorer, which probably means that most opposing teams base their defense around him. It's probably hard for him to get many open looks. I'm sure the majority of his 3 pt attempts are contested. Considering all of that 38.3% isn't that bad. When he is at Iowa State he will be around a lot more shooters which will take the focus off of him, which in turn will increase his shooting percentage from 3 pt range.

Tyrus might be a better player than KJ, but still I think KJ being around more shooters will benefit him a lot.

[Rabbuk]

I trust fred.

[Thompsonclone21]

He likes to shoot anyways.

What's wrong with 38% from 3?

Your defense of his shooting % being that much lower than McGee's is that he takes so many contested shots? Ouch.
Clearly you never watched McGee when he was in JuCo (or even while at ISU). It is doubtful KJ is taking that many more bad shots, and if he is that is a concern imo.

BTW McGee shot 43% of Cowley's 3P attempts in 200-11 compared to KJ's 47%.

Nothing if it comes with a well rounded game and someone who knows they are not a top shooter.

I guarantee you McGee had more than one other guy on his juco team that could shoot the 3. And he obviously has a ton more players on his teams at Iowa State that can shoot 3's. So not ouch.

Bluford doesn't play on that good of a team so therefore his coach probably tells him to shoot more shots that aren't good shots, and that along with the fact that they have him and only one other guy that shoot 3's are the reason for his lower shooting percentage than McGee. Playing on a better team with better players increases shooting percentages for good shooters. McGee's sophomore season they were 25-8. Bluford's team was 14-11 at one point this season. Since he has been at Iowa State McGee plays with a ton of 3 pt shooters that spread the floor and give him better looks than Bluford gets. I would almost guarantee ya Hoiberg spaces the floor better than KJ Blufords Juco coach. Also McGee isn't the primary focus for defenses at Iowa State like I'm sure Bluford on his juco team.

Here is an idea, no one knows sh1t about Bluford because no one watched him play. Best to s-t-f-u about it

I thought we were supposed to bash guys who we've never seen play in CFH's system.

Don't bother. It's a waste of time.
