Austin Nichols suspended

Postby sadderbudweiser » Fri Oct 28, 2016 5:48 pm

An inauspicious, (or at least delayed) start for Nichols at Virginia. Couple of preseasons and the season opener. Can't be too big a deal.

Need to change the title of this thread - per Jon Rothstein on twitter:

Virginia has dismissed Austin Nichols, per release. Huge ACC News.

doesn't care who wins.

Bring him in and dry him out. We could use him.

One potential landing spot I've heard for recently-dismissed Austin Nichols if he leaves Virginia and doesn't go pro: TCU.
