That was pretty much the case....although I have seen multiple practice videos where he is firing away from 12-25 ft. He also displayed a pretty dependable stroke in high school videos away from the rim. Of course, doing that over Mara is another story but he is not shy about shooting....if Brad wants him to do so. Yet, with all the shooters/scorers on the roster, his area of concern would not likely be to score a lot. In fact, he most likely will not see the floor next year...but that is not a certainty.

Florida just got back Haugh and Condon.
They could get Milan from ISU. Could also retain Chinyelu and Fland. Klavzar is also terrific.
That'd be a phenomenal roster.

Would you prefer 3s? He didnt screw up. He played at times in meaningful games his furst two years with Tomi n othees out. Do you think Blake will, ever? You guys want to run him off?
Andrej, is just gonna look up hive us a hair flip and a million dollar smile and say, "it hurts that you don’t trust that I teut the process, been to busy grinding to lwt you know nothing has changed. "
I think a veteran two-way combo guard would be the perfect fit to add to the backcourt rotation IF they don’t add Blackwell but retain Dre. A Boswell type guard.
A couple of days ago it sounded like a potential Blackwell announcement on Friday. Now we're hearing Andre first. Is it safe to say no announcement on Friday?
Ethan Brown may disagree

They’d better grab Folgueiras, just to be safe.
What changed in the strategy to not pivot?
Haugh isn’t back, that was a fake post
Is that a bad thing? I mean guys were trying to guard him and not mop.up duty all the time. What has he done poorly? Tell me that instead of complaining? I dont recall him screwing up ever!
Kids dont get tired...... /sAgree. I’m not a fan of praising scUM in any way, but one of the things I thought Dusty May did well was managing minutes on an incredibly deep team.
Hoping Bradislav might do something similar with all the depth we’ll have. Keeps our guys:
1. more fresh
2. less injury prone…. and dare I say it…
3. more likely to hit end-of-game FT’s
Apologies.
I’m surprised Cox isn’t a player we would kick the tires on.

Saw a report that was posted in the last hour Zavier Zens has postponed his decision until Friday.
I wouldn’t get your hopes up …
Hoping this means we get Blackwell....
Probably in the minority -- this wouldn't exactly make sense to me. Vaaks is a primary ball handler; so is Cox. In that case, would rather give those starting reps to Coleman and look for somebody off the bench.
Of all the names brought up here, I think McNeil is the only Blackwell consolation that truly makes sense.
