Austin Nichols official visit rumors...

[CAVol]

My Suite mate was eating breakfast at Cracker Barrel and he saw Nichols, his mom, Cuonzo, and an assistant coach eating there. It's rumored he was eating the Country Boy Breakfast.

I'm a Momma's Pancake Breakfast guy myself. Scramble the eggs with cheese and double up on bacon!

Last player CCM took to cracker barrel for breakfast was Hubbs, we know how that turned out.

Not SEC but he reminded me of Kyle Singler when I first saw his film.

I'd say David Lee. Nichols isn't as bulky right now but that'll change as Nichols gets older.

Well Cuonzo Martin is hanging with Peyton Manning...any doubt Nichols and his family are right there as well???

You know Peyton will put the squeeze on him. Both from athletics and academics side!

Not SEC, but, with those long arms. Kevin McHale.

Whole team got to meet and take pictures with Peyton...apparently players were speechless, Tom Satkowiak said its the first time he's seen those guys speechless.

Austin Nichols is now at calhouns...not a bad place to take the kid, there'll be a ton of fan support down there with the tailgating taking place.

He's getting the star treatment this weekend! As he should.

Would taking him to the concert have been a violation if it were not free? how lucky we were to have that and Peyton in town this week.

Who the hell is Dierks Bentley?

I am not a fan of country music for the most part, but his song "What was I thinkin" is actually pretty good.

Pretty cool guy. Plays music. Vandy graduate.

CCalhuns on the river is so damn overrated. Not saying it's not good or a bad place to go, but it would be more balling if we had a local restaurant at that location IMO.

Gotcha. I would still consider it local though. Either way, I agree with Chris. Calhouns is just meh.

That's pretty local. I'm within a 20 min drive to all but 1.

 

[Chris4Vols22]

I actually did not know they're only in TN. I'm from Nashville, and they're there, so I assumed it was a chain.
