Delaware State vs. Nebraska, 11.19.15Jack McVeigh smiled as he kept motioning with his arms and shifting back and forth in his chair, all the while discussing what he’s learned in his first week of official collegiate basketball competition.

It’s also why the Australian has developed a serious admiration for squirrels.
“I’m a pretty hyperactive character myself, a lot of energy, can’t sit still, so I’ve looked at squirrels, and they’re the exact same,” McVeigh said. “They’re always running around, they’re active.”
