Martin is friends with Nichols. Most likely he got that right from the horses mouth and Nichols was simply wrong about playing there next year.

Too be friends with him he sire has been wrong about him on everything 0% chance he comes here and a chance he will play at Virginia again

He's said repeatedly he got "0% chance Nichols comes here" directly from Nichols. Nichols changed his mind.

Hmmm okay then how did he not get the going pro scoop

Sad stuff, Wm Bedford part II without the first round draft choice part. I hope and pray this ends better.

As I said - he's been in Florida prepping for his professional career. Has been for a while. Didn't want it getting out. Just wanted to focus on ball.

What do you get when you draft a drug addict and give them millions of dollars?

A really messed up drug addict. Don't see a team biting. Maybe he is clean now? Hope so. Hope he kills it in the NBA...but would you draft him? A kid that hasn't played in 2 years, 1 because of drugs?

Bedford would have been 1st pick in draft without the problems THEY KNEW ABOUT PRE DRAFT.

Nope and I don't believe you'll see anything other than the inside of a KFC anytime soon.

That relationship isn't what it used to be, combined with Austin wanting it to be a secret until now.

Only if he develops a 18-22 foot jumper. They will take a flier on a serial killer.

Always wondered. Why is there not a Taco Bell on Austin Peay???

I have my doubts, but his agent sure is telling him he has a chance.

He's being told mid-2nd.

He may well be gone.
But the message board info on Jackson Dillon was that he was gone too. Would never play again for the Tigers.
Would not ever be back in school.

None of that is true.
I'll wait for the announcement.

Tony Bennett-the HEAD COACH-said on his weekly radio show Nichols WOULD NOT PLAY for VA next year. You wanting an executive order from the president?

Your reading comprehension skill MUST improve.
I was speaking about Dedric, numbnutz.
AND to a lesser degree, Markel and KJ.

You really need to get back to elementary school.

He was talking about Lawson genius

99% genius

I could have sworn this was a Nichols Thread, Einstein. I'm not sure why this board even bothers with threads-same s*** no matter what the thread is.

You just get tired of being wrong all the time due to your lack of subject comprehension.

In your mind you were responding to Bathtub Gin post. But you failed to quote the post and used the pronoun "He". Since you did not quote the previous post, then the use of the pronoun "he" is automatically focused on the subject manner of the thread which is Nichols.

Hope the kid makes it.

A couple of years ago I would have told you his size didn't match his skillset, he has the body of a stretch 4 but the skillset of a post player. But from a couple of pics I saw of him from the start of last season before he was kicked off the team at Virginia, it looked like he had put on some weight/muscle in the year he sat out. With that plus the fact that 4s are getting smaller and smaller in the NBA, I could see him making a team. But I doubt a team would use a pic on him. Declaring for the draft and working out for teams may get him some camp invites and an opportunity to make a team as an undrafted free agent, but he will have to really impress someone. If he has worked on extending his range to the three point line that would help.

I think he could be a Jon Leuer journeyman type player if he were to buckle down and work for it.

I think his ceiling had he not had the off the court issues that caused him to lose 2 years would have been something close to David Lee in his prime.

He is a little quicker than Dedric...But physically they are very similar players.

He could make it...Hell who knows what his skillset is now, I know I don't because I haven't seen him play in over 2 years.

The grizz should take a chance on him, would be good for his development for Zbo and Marc to mentor him
