Nice class Moore and Lewis are damn good players.

Nice to see them recruiting instate rather than filling a class full of Australians.
Some of the Australians are very good such as Bose. I would have him on my team any day, but the majority over the past few years are tall, fundamentally sound but not very athletic and have a great deal of trouble dealing with the style of play.

There is a big push to get local guys but to be honest most kids in the Louisiana have a hard time getting qualified.(example Shavon Coleman who is a stud). APR has changed how AD's run their programs. Nicholls Athletics has dramatically increase their academic standards because they can't afford to lose scholarships.
With that being said in fairness about half of the australion kids have done a good job at Nicholls.
I'm happy to see them snag a Houma kid. I thought they missed out on Deshawn Patterson a couple of years ago.

That's a nice class.
On the issue of the foreign players, that's a way for small schools to potentially get a difference maker. One problem is that they often get them sight unseen, based on the word of scouts. The players often are not as good as projected.

Where on campus are the basketball games held?

No Australians this year?

I don't think so from what I've read. I was really bored and decided to research those guys a little because everyone always brings up the Aussie pipeline.

Must not look much like a basketball arena from the outside.
Read that Nicholls considers it small size sort of a home court advantage since most teams aren't used to playing in such a small arena.

That is because it is not an arena .. It is a GYM

Looks like a standard high school gym on the outside and inside.

Has Nicholls ever won the Southland conference?
Posted on 5/6/10 at 10:31 pm to Dry Hands Man
Yes they won it twice in the 90's.

off topic, but does anyone thing nicholls could have landed Cedric Jenkins 6'2, 185 Reserve Christian/Riverside Academy, local guy plently of talent, committed in April to Southern Miss, best other offer was LA Tech, with this guy being so close to nicholls they may have been able to land him.

Yea Southern Miss is in conference USA which is two steps up from the Southland conference. Don't sleep on Nicholls this year though. They are returning every single player and adding some really good recruits.
