A former Nicholls standout has announced his transfer portal destination.
Graduate senior Jamal West Jr., announced on social media today that he has transferred to UTEP, giving him his home for the final season of his collegiate playing career.
West was a Colonel for the past two seasons. He averaged 12.3 points and 6.5 rebounds per game and was a consistent force for a Nicholls team that made another push in the Southland.
West was listed as a senior all season, but had one year of eligibility due to the COVID eligibility freeze. He entered the portal at the end of the season.
With UTEP, West will be joining a team that was 18-15 last season in the Conference USA.
He is expected to be a regular contributor for the Miners in 2025-2026.
