2013 F Austin Nichols (Memphis Briarcrest)

[GoVols2003]

Yes and Yes

If he knows it was Tennessee, maybe he is just doing that for Miller.

Jason Smith?

He's the beat writer.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

He's the beat writer.

I know who he is, when you said smith I was asking was it Jason smith, not who.

I definitely put more stock into him than Martin or Watson....that said im surprised about the auburn statement.

The Martin guy is a d-bag.

The Martin guy is a d-bag.

I'm fairly confident Martin and Leroy have slumber parties that involve whacking it to Memphis recruits.

Tennessee was at his school on Monday, and I still like the Vols' chance, as I've been saying for awhile. However, I've picked up some buzz this afternoon that Auburn made a really strong push this weekend with the family. It may not look like it makes a lot of sense on the surface, but hearing that Auburn may bear watching here

Crazy. Austin's recruitment is getting very convoluted. Lewis claims Auburn is making a push, as does Smith. Other people claim Auburn is the longest shot.

 

[UT's#1Fan]

awburn would be dumb. The only other one that makes sense is obviously Duke. I wouldn't mind losing him to Duke or Memphis.

Probably all misdirection so the announcement can be a surprise.

I think he will be a Vol.

Had to.

It's my understanding mom prefers Memphis, dad likes Duke and Austin wants to play beside his best bud.
Interesting to see who wins in family time.

Hope it is us, Cal. If we get him and Stokes returns we could
possibly make a deep run into the tourny especially with Hubbs drawing them away from our posts. Lot of "ifs", but, lets hope it happens.

No offense, but I mind losing him to anybody.

I want him to be a VOL.


GBO VFL!!!

It'd be like Christmas in November.

Won't be much of a surprise I think.

 

[Roustabout]

Auburn has a nice new arena, but look at the maximum seating capacity.
There just aren't enough residents in that area. I'm surprised there in the mix. UT has the goods to be a legit bball power. Pearl showed that.

Has Nichols set an actual date for his decision or is it still up in the air?

Don't think a date has been set but, most think next week.

 

[calban]

By the end of the early signing period are Mark's words.
That could be 3 weeks.
Everything else is wishful thinking.

I'd lean toward Monday the 19th.
The day after we play NC St in PR.

@SECBballRecruit: Austin Nichols is down to Memphis and Tennessee per a source.

If that's the case, then I would have to think he would pick us.

 

[Chris4Vols22]

Sounds really odd. Not sure if I trust that.

 

[Stoked]

Don't know how reliable this guy is but I thought I would pass it along. The only school I was really worried about the whole time was Duke. I think he is throwing Memphis in the top 2 out of courtesy to his home town.

 

[Stoked]

The guys name is Joseph Thompson. Does anyone know who he is?

 

[MemphisCanes]

Sounds really odd. Not sure if I trust that.

I've heard:

Memphis and UT
Duke and UT
Vandy and Duke
UT and Auburn
Memphis and Duke
Memphis and Vandy


I doubt any of these top 2s have come from the Nichols clan.
