Darris Nichols entered his third season as the Radford head basketball coach in the 2023-24 season after making his Highlander debut in 2021-22.
The 11-18 record in 2022-2023 season represented the most wins and best win percentage for a first year head coach at Radford since Ron Bradley lead the Highlanders to a 20-9 record in 1991-92. After a slow start to the season, the Highlanders came on strong late, including winning four of their last five regular season contests to end the season on a positive note.

Darris Nichols was named Radford University's eighth men's basketball head coach on April 21, 2021. A Radford, Va., native, Nichols had spent the previous six seasons as an assistant coach at the University of Florida.

"Darris Nichols is a star," Radford Director of Athletics Robert Lineburg says of Nichols. "He was an outstanding student-athlete at Radford High School and at West Virginia University. He has climbed the ranks as an assistant coach all the way to the University of Florida in the SEC. At each stop, he has made a tremendous impact. He has played for and worked with some of America's best basketball coaches, which is so important. He is prepared and ready for this moment, and we are thrilled to welcome him home."

Camps are open to any/all entrants (limited only by number, age, grade level and/or gender). Darris Nichols Basketball Camps at Radford University is owned, controlled and operated by Darris Nichols, LLC.
