I'm excited to see his son play and see the name on the back of his Jersey.

garnet_black215 · 10-08-2012, 04:51 PM

Awesome.

Another great pick up for Coach Martin!

pooveycock · 10-16-2012, 01:50 PM

I'm excited about getting Justin, but I really hope this is a package deal and we get BJ on the sidelines with him.

STEPHONGILMOREFAN! · 12-05-2012, 01:47 AM

Really needs to redshirt. But once his skills are refined he will be solid.

sc455 · 12-05-2012, 02:02 AM

hope this isnt a legacy pick..

STEPHONGILMOREFAN! · 12-05-2012, 02:07 AM

Fear#5 · 01-15-2013, 11:11 PM

Helped get his team (Irmo) ranked as 25th in the country.

FilchCock · 01-15-2013, 11:39 PM

I didn't think Frank Martin would pick somebody up unless he could really ball.

Really ? Martin tweeted that he didn't understand why there wasn't a statue of Mack out there on St. Andrews Rd. (in front of Irmo High). Dude don't give out legacy picks.

If I could send points I would, respect for taking a stand and keeping an open mind....do not see that alot with fans on chat boards.

jared · 01-27-2013, 12:37 AM

Nominated for the McDonald's game?? Wow that's great. How do they go about selecting from the nominations?

KadCock · 01-30-2013, 09:00 AM

Saw Irmo play RV last night at Irmo. McKie dropped 22 points and could get to the rim anytime he wanted. He has great court awareness and plays really focused. Didn't see any mental lapses. He needs to work on his strength. A few times he got the ball stripped as he was going up for a shot on the interior.

He's has alot to improve on, but he has the mentality and focus to be a really good player. I think Martin can make him a steady contributor early.

Gamecockboyo · 03-02-2013, 02:08 AM

McKie just got things done in the state title game. With 20 points and 10 rebounds.

What the heck was he doing getting 10 boards for? Haha

Ace Dilcock · 03-02-2013, 12:35 PM

Talking about rebounds - what surprised me about Justin was his length. The TV people had him at 6' 5', and while that might have been inflated a little, he looked to be a legit 6' 4". His dad was listed at 6' 3" but was more like 6' 2" and had to rely on his strength to draw fouls when he penetrated. The lack of physical size and athleticism is why his game did not translate to the NBA.

Justin is not as strong or polished but his length and athleticism tops his dad. If I remember, BJ scored something like 36 points in the state championship game. Justin came out the same way - had 14 in the first half, half of his team's total and the same as Goose Creek's team total. I think he plays early - might make it easier to part with Leonard, though I think Leonard could be a player if he gets his head on straight. Justin can hit the three also, but is a better athlete than Leonard and has a more well-rounded offensive game - can penetrate to the basket and pull up for his jumper off the dribble. I think he can be very good for us and am amazed that he is not getting more attention from the media.

Travelin · 03-04-2013, 07:38 AM

Good read on Justin.

Irmo coach Tim Whipple has won four state championships during his 32-year career, and a McKie has been on the roster for three of them.

He has seen the 17-year-old Justin fight out of the shadow of being BJ’s son.

“I think where they are the same is their work ethic, their heart and their drive,” Whipple said. “They just refuse to lose. That’s something you can’t teach. You are born with that. It’s a lot of fun watching Justin handle the pressure that goes along with being BJ’s son. That’s not an easy thing. No matter what you do or where you are, you’re being compared. He’s handled it extremely well.”
