Miami of Ohio HC accuses Alabama of ‘illegally’ recruiting

Alabama kicker Graham Nicholson (#14) kicks a field goal during 2024 Crimson Tide fall camp practice.

Miami of Ohio head coach Chuck Martin accused Alabama of ‘illegally’ recruiting Graham Nicholson.

Nicholson is a former kicker for the Redhawks.

The reigning Lou Groza Award winner announced he was transferring to Alabama in April.

Martin feels this move was ‘illegally’ put into motion. 

“We didn’t lose him,” Martin said in a recent interview. “He’s at Alabama. We know that. We know exactly where he’s at. You media people, it’s all pretend like, no. Alabama stole our kicker. They illegally recruit our kicker and stole him from us. That’s a fact. But we act like it’s not. We live in this la la world. Like, hey, let’s not talk real. I don’t know why. Everybody knows what’s going on. Alabama stole our kicker.”

Nicholson is expected to start for the Tide.
