4-star OL Addison Nichols – Vols 2022 Class Signee 3 (Profile/Highlights/Analysis)

Posted on December 15, 2021

Addison Nichols
(OL)  Greater Atlanta Christian School in Atlanta, GA        
6’5″    315
Committed: 8/2/21
4-star average (4-star on 247Sports, Rivals & ESPN)

Josh Ward’s Analysis:  Nichols is a really important player for Tennessee as the Vols try to build depth and add talent to the offensive line. Nichols is one of the highest rated players in Tennessee’s class. The Vols hope he’ll make a difference in the future.

Eric Cain’s Analysis:  Nichols is one of the higher-rated prospects in the country and has a great base for offensive tackle. He’s got great feet and uses his hands to keep rushers in front of him. Nichols picks up blitzers well and runs them out of the play – creating a clean pocket for the passer. He’s the most game-ready offensive lineman in the class, but still has some work to do before he’s SEC ready. Tennessee won out over Ohio State and North Carolina.
