       Thanks Checkmate and theGreatK for keeping us in the loop.
       I'm certainly no expert on NCAA transfer rules, but having read
       through them, on the surface it would appear that Policelli
       needs to sit for one year.  Given yesterday's announcement, it
       is clear that SBU has something up its sleeve, to get him to
       play this upcoming season.  I really hope that happens, as it
       will certainly lessen the blow of losing Yeboah.
       Listening to Bilas last night on the NBA selection ordering, he
       really believes that this year's draft (aside from Zion) will be
       of less caliber than previous years.  His comment that there
       will be a lot of 1st rounders that would normally be 2nd round
       picks, bodes well for Lamb, I would think.  He may sneak in
       there as a late 2nd rounder.  And if that's the case, Giddens
       becomes a really important pickup for Vermont.

       So how good is this guy Giddens really?  He sat on the bench for
       a mediocre Alabama team that was blown out by Northeastern.  In
       his third year, he never played more than 16 minutes in a game
       and he only got into 14 games out of the 34 that Alabama played.
       I'm sure he'll contribute, but I would caution against
       overrating him.

       He's also four years into his college career and still has a
       higher fouls called per 40 minutes rate than big Jeff, 7.7  to
       6.6 for Otchere.
       I do think he'll be good though. It almost seems like Vermont is
       trying to keep up with Stony Brook with our athletic bigs in
       Otchere and Gueye.

       If they're trying to keep up with the Seawolves, I think they're
       doing a pretty good job of it so far.  Don't forget about the
       Oklahoma State transfer (DeMuth)!!  He's apparently a scorer and
       an excellent get for the Catamounts, not to mention he'll have 3
       years to play!

       The good news is only five play at a time and there is only one
       ball in play.
