The 2018–19 Nicholls Colonels men's basketball team represent Nicholls State University during the 2018–19 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Colonels, led by first-year head coach Austin Claunch, play their home games at Stopher Gym in Thibodaux, Louisiana as members of the Southland Conference.

Previous season

[edit]

The Colonels finished the 2017–18 season 21–11, 15–3 in Southland play to earn a share of the regular season championship. As the No. 2 seed in the Southland tournament, they lost in the semifinals to Stephen F. Austin.[1]

On March 15, 2018, head coach Richie Riley left Nicholls to take the head coaching job at South Alabama.[2] Two weeks later, the school promoted assistant coach Austin Claunch to head coach.[3]
