WILL WE SEE BLUEFORD IN SPOTS TONIGHT?

With Iowa being such a long team and opts to play a zone against us, it will force more outside shots from behind the arc. I have seen Blueford step in late in a few games and seems to be a pretty good 3 point shooter cold off the bench. That makes me wonder if CFH will bring him off the bench in certain spots to force Fran to go man.

I know we have Thomas and Long but if there zone D is effective tonight, I wonder is CFH will have no choice but to use more 3 point shooters than he has up to this point on the floor.

I think he would - in the instance you lay out. especially a single offensive possession. Defensively, he might be a liability.

Dude launches the most ridiculous threes. He needs to have a better shot selection before he ever sees serious minutes.

He's currently shooting .278 (5-18) from beyond the arc.

If Bluford plays it means one of two things:

A- we're up comfortably at the end

B- we're desperate for some offense

I'd say it's highly unlikely that we see him

Bluford, as a JUCO transfer, has been a waste of a scholarship at this point.

SDW is a lot better. Bluford is like a Percy Gibson black hole, except he shoots beyond the arc. The dude is a ball hog he just chucks it everytime he touches the ball no matter where he's at.

Bluford is a volume shooter. The only reason he made a lot of 3s in JUCO was because he shot a ton. We will not see him play this year let alone this game unless it is a blowout.
