In his first season in Morgantown, he earned a spot on the All-Big 12 Freshman Team. He averaged 9.5 ppg on the year but had an eight-game span in the middle of the season, where he averaged 14.1 ppg. In the latter part of the season, McBride hit a wall, producing one double-digit performance over the next eight games. However, he averaged 14 ppg in the final three games of the season.
McBride is the only Mountaineer to receive an invite.
