When Fran McCaffery and his staff tapped into Meyer’s comfort level, the 800-mile driving distance from Alpharetta, Ga., to Iowa City failed to deter this class’ first Hawkeyes recruit. He decided against waiting out the summer after his junior year, a peak recruitment period, and trusted the Iowa coaches.
“He’s had a great experience with those guys from Day 1,†Shelby Meyer said. “We didn’t get the sense that they were playing games like some other folks.â€
He’s not the first Northview grad to play in the Big Ten. Former Minnesota big man Ralph Sampson III was an alum, but Meyer has put the Hawkeye State on the map among his friends of the past 10 years.
“If you say Iowa in Atlanta, people will think of me now. No one’s ever heard much of it, never crossed their mind,†Meyer said. “Now, if you say my friend’s going to Iowa, they say, ‘Oh, Kyle Meyer.’ It’s kind of cool to have that affiliation.â€
