Cooley booblehead looks like Stags’ Nickerson

The Providence Friars gave away 2,000 Ed Cooley boobleheads on Saturday night at the Dunkin Donuts Center before the team’s game against Marquette. Like most bobbleheads, this one did not quite look like Cooley.

In fact, it seems to resemble to one of the former Fairfield coach’s old players – junior guard Colin Nickerson.
