Granted my opinions on him come from a limited number of times seeing him (state tournament), but it didn't look to me like he was a player that would post up very much. He's great attacking the basket, but I don't remember seeing him get position on someone down low. Does he normally call for it down low or does he usually take it in on drives?
I think that Bo would use him as a guard, and Bo would also use Diamond Taylor as a guard with him. The can both handle the ball but aren't true point guards, so let whichever one that gets the outlet pass bring the ball up the floor. As far as once the Badgers are on the offensive end goes, DTaylor is supposedly much better when running off screens and Blue is better at driving, so let Blue handle the ball in under-10 situations. A year under Bo spent riding the bench would probably do wonders for his little problem with ballhog-itis. He's also got two years left before he would even get to Madison to mature and learn to find the open man more often. But the fact that he's not a true point guard IS the reason I'd love to see McCamey come to Madison, or maybe this Josh Gasser kid that Heavystarch just made a thread for (assuming he really is "the best point guard in Wisconsin in 2010").
