Tim Miles on Sports Nightly this evening:

 

Really high on Jack McVeigh as a person.  Super energetic, good length, needs some bulk.  Says we got lucky on Bakari Evleyn.  Said if he stayed in Michigan we probably wouldn't have had a shot at him.  Will compliment Glynn Watson very well.  

 

On recruiting, obviously we'd like to get a big.  Asked Greg Sharpe if he was available.  Said they're open to anyone and everyone.  Also looking at the possibility of a red shirt transfer who is good enough to play Big Ten Basketball in 2016.  

 

On Terran, said they had been discussing his long term plans since he announced publicly that his mother was dealing with cancer.  They talked about "what could be" if he stayed, but ultimately said he supports his decision totally.  

 

On coaching the NABC game, sounds like he called a Christian Laettner type play at the end of the game, had a player on an inbounds play heave it down the court, another player caught it and touch passed it to a third player for an uncontested dunk to win the game.  (Gonna have to see if I can find that on youtube).

So he's saying McVeigh has a great personality, huh?

The play was at the end of the 1st half.  But they were down by 15. Other than the long-pass catch leading to a layup (and it being an all-star game), it was nearly the same.

Ah okay, thanks Auroran.

 Also looking at the possibility of a red shirt transfer who good enough to play Big Ten Basketball in 2016. 

 

This. We should be trying to land the next TP/AW3.

i agree unless we can grab Tyler Harris, Rafael Maia or anton gill

 

if we got 2 out of those 3, we could probably field a pretty good team.

I'd also like to see us go after the center from Liberty. Averaged like 10 and 7 and is immediately eligible.

Grad transfer and traditional transfer who are ballers would fit the bill for Nebrasketball. One for this year + one for following year(s). JUCO 'big' as a fall-back option if 1 of those 2 do not materialize. Get better now & later!.

Maia or Harris are immediate one and done players. Gill is a sophomore with 3 years to play 2, like AW3
