Sorry for the skimpy profile. Can't find a lot about him. But....

McVeigh arrives in Lincoln tonight and begins official visit Tuesday. He's down to Nebraska and LSU.

Is he walking on, as I am not sure we have a schollie available unless Petteway leaves after this year?

[Haspula]

Not sure why miles isn't after a big with leslee, moses, aND rivers leaving

Already have two

Not sure this move makes a ton of sense IMO.

 

As a previous poster said, we have 1 spot open right now, hopefully taken by Akoy Agau.

 

If Akoy passes, then we are hoping for Pitchford/Jacobsen/Hammond to play the 5.

 

Morrow could probably play the 4, but that is a lot of very young guys without the muscle needed for the B1G.

 

I get the fast/athletic lineup thing, but major concerns.

 

 

We need a big or a frantic rebounder like Rivers.

 

From what i have seen, Petteway wont be drafted, so i am expecting him and pitchford to be back.

[SouthLincoln Husker]

It makes sense in the long run as we do not have any pure shooters after Petteway & White. My only concern is scholarships. It appears that he is unrated and has no scholarships. Maybe he walks on with a chance to get a scholarship as we have several available in 2016.

I hope you're not planning on Akoy playing the 5 here. He was moved to the 3 this year at Louisville. His ideal position IMO is the 4 but there's no way I see him playing the 5

I obviously have not seem Akoy play in awhile... Small forward?

He is now listed at 230. That is big enough to play the 4 or 5.

[Mavric]

Agau isn't a 3 - not enough offense. Probably a little undersized for a 5 but not terrible with how well he contests shots. 4 is just right for him, imo.

[Minnesota_husker]

No way Akoy plays the 3 here or any place with depth.

 

He moved to the 3 at UL because of their depth at the 4/5.

 

He will play the 4/5 here simply based on need.

 

 

Pitch maybe plays the 5 but Morrow can play a 3/4.

 

White can play a 2/3

 

I dont think you will see "traditional" lineups out there...

 

 

IF Akoy comes here, i think you will see him on the court as the biggest guys or next to pitch.

 

It just varies, but because of need, he will have to play the 5 at times.

An “unbelievable” official visit moved #Nebrasketball to the top of @JackMcVeigh1’s list… ($) https://nebraska.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1721109 …

I hope this kid can shoot 3's. His video looks like he's playing against a bunch of gym rats. The BIG will be a bit tougher. Miles must see something in him.

The video was from a scrimmage!
