As we recently discussed on the forums, it comes as no surprise that Memphis has now released junior forward Austin Nichols with some restrictions. Nichols averaged 13.3 points and 6.1 rebounds per game for the Tigers last year, and was projected to be their best player this upcoming season. He requested a release that Memphis initially tried to block.

If you've been reading my recruiting updates the last couple of days, you know Notre Dame is after bigs, bigs, and more bigs - Well, the 6-9 Nichols fits that bill.


I can independently confirm that Notre Dame is interested in Nichols. We'll see where it goes from here.
