Georgia football among top schools for OT Addison Nichols

The Georgia Bulldogs have made the cut of top schools for offensive tackle Addison Nichols

The Georgia Bulldogs have made the cut of top schools for offensive tackle Addison Nichols. It is still early in the recruiting process for Nichols, who is a member of the class of 2022.

He projects as a four-star recruit. The rising junior plays football for Greater Atlanta Christian School in Georgia. Nichols is six-foot-five and weighs 300 pounds.

Nichols has received offers from great college football programs like Oklahoma, Clemson, and Alabama. He released his top schools list via his Twitter account on the Fourth of July:

Nichols outs LSU, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, Georgia Tech, FSU, Florida, Clemson, Duke, Auburn, USC, and Tennessee in his top twelve schools. We’ll keep you updated throughout his recruitment.

Marquis Groves-Killebrew is Georgia’s one commitment in the class of 2022.  The class of 2022 will likely be slow to commit, since most of these players won’t be able to visit the schools they want to attend.
