FredsSlacks Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 I like everything about him except he looks pretty skinny and not sure how he'll adapt to playing in the U.S. Quote
hskr4life Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 I've said it once, and I will say it again.... McVeigh will be better than most internationals because they play with real basketballs in their league... not those colored pieces of crap! No but really... who in their right mind plays with a colored, weird basketball. Quote
hhcmatt Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 I have feeling he would be very similar to a Sam Dekker whom we all know is an amazing talent for the B1G. Still have this feeling Kamdy? This guy is a really good get Quote

Huskerpapa Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Simply google Jack's name. That will help reinforce the opinion that this kid can help this year...and when you look at his numbers...yes, you can draw comparisons to a certain (now ex) Wisconsin player. Quote

FredsSlacks Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 being the best player from australia is a lot more impressive than being the best in new zealand like webster was. Australia- 23million people new zealand 4 milion people Quote

This guy is a really good get What makes you say that? Not disagreeing, just would like to hear you expand your thoughts. He can shoot outside and finish with both hands. He appears to have a scoring mentality. Australia has enough talent that he doesn't come with the same sort of competition concerns that became apparent with Tai. Being a highly rated Australian kid means something these days. We're basically getting a free redshirt year out of him since he graduated HS in December and has been training at the Australian Institute of Sport. He's definitely flying under the radar. Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 I have feeling he would be very similar to a Sam Dekker whom we all know is an amazing talent for the B1G. Still have this feeling Kamdy? I really do think so. Now will he step in from day one and be SD, no I don't think so, but really feel that after some acclimation that he can have a very similar game. They have similar styles of play and their athleticism is also very similar. Factor in they are about the same size and build its a very easy comparison. Another similar style he could build into is Aaron White from Iowa. Either way I feel he is a future All B1G level player. Not saying a first team guy but by the end of his playing days at NU he will be one of the top 15 players in the league. Hopefully we can come back to this in 4 years and I'm right. Quote

Wow - I hope you're right too. Those are 2 really good B1G players who showed improvement throughout their careers. Hopefully people have some patience with him, as I completely agree on the acclimation process. Now we just need Fran F to keep his opinion to himself on McVeigh's skills so the expectations aren't off the charts. Very, very impressive freshman class coming into Lincoln this fall. Quote

AuroranHusker Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 As Normy mentioned on the Bakari Evelyn thread, it's time for trickey to change the title of the original post from "VC" to "Signed" for Jack McVeigh! Quote

Silverbacked1 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 I really hope he pans out because I want the student section to yell Aussie, Ausssie, Aussie and the fans to yell Oi, Oi,Oi when he hits a three.
