Policelli's a great get, isn't he?
Three star guy, LI Lutheran alum, Dayton signee. Also offered
last year by Cincinnati, Illinois, Maryland, Rutgers,
Washington, Texas Tech and more.
This sounds HUGE.
I figured we'd be more excited.
(I'm not worried about his year at Dayton. I have a bunch of
friends who went there, and they said he needed a redshirt year
to get bigger - and that was the plan until injuries happened).

This is very exciting. Looks like the list of schools courting
him now though, took a backseat to the schools that offered him
out of high school. SBU allegedly competed against Albany,
Manhattan, Quinnipeac, Siena, Hofstra, and Colgate. May have
been due to minuscule #’s/injuries while at Dayton.
Either way, a real nice get.

2019 Recruiting

Vermont with another big signing from the transfer pool - 6’8”
Duncan Demuth from Oklahoma State. This comes a week after they
snatched grad transfer Daniel Giddens from Alabama. These guys
don’t have big numbers behind them, but they’re big boys who
were three stars or better out of HS.
Here’s a look at Demuth, who we will see three years of.

When it comes to Basketball Vermont knows how to recruit and win
the big games. They will be a force to contend with for years to
come. SB needs to take some notes. Transfers, kids out of HS
want to play in the NCAA.

Is it me, or does it sound like Policelli is eligible for this
upcoming season?

Funny, I read the article and don't see anything that says that
he won't play in 2019. They're calling him a recruit for 2019
class. No mention of sitting upcoming year. The transfer rules
are pretty clear though - he played in 20 games last year, so he
should be sitting. He had few minutes though - so maybe he got
a waiver somehow?

It's possible he's applying for a hardship waiver, but I believe
his family lives in the syracuse area. If that's the case, it's
hard to believe it will go through

The NCAA has been more forgiving with those waivers- he did play
for LuHi so maybe they can make an argument about him being
closer to his old coaches? Anyway I have penciled him in for
2020.
Regarding those UVM transfers, I wouldn't sweat it too much.
Giddens was super highly touted out of high school but has not
done much at the college level. He's physically gifted but
there's a reason he's coming to the America East- a nice get for
them though that will help them absorb the loss of Lamb.
I think the guys we have building give us the core of a very
good team for the next two years. 2020 will be hopefully the
year where we are America East favorites again.

Frankie is up to 6’9 in height and has packed on muscle mass.
He’s better than the kid we remember at Luhi plain and simple.
Dayton had guys ahead of him who deserved to be (1 being an NBA
prospect). Not the same log jam here.
Yes, he will be attempting to get a waiver for immediate
eligibility. Feeling I get from those that should know is this
isn’t a Hail Mary attempt.
Those Vermont Transfers are very good gets.
Giddens was a flat out Monster in HS. Was once rated as a top 15
prospect nationally in his graduating class. Pegged as a 5 star
kid half of his HS career. His skills and feel never caught up
to his size and athleticism and other premier bigs passed him
during his grassroots/HS days. He obviously didn’t have major
impact at the High Major D1 level either but here he should be
very reliable. Giddens is a terrific locker room kid as well.
I’d peg him in about 8 and 8 with 2 blocks per.
