MBB Recruits 2018

[HofstraMathew]

It has been a while since we have had a full 13 scholarships used up. Joe seems to have this team built for the long haul with players at various years at each position.

[The Shadow]

I am a little confused as to which of the 2018-19 players are now considered grads, seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen. I do not mean their academic standing, but their basketball year. Also, which players do you think might be red shirting? This way we can try to see each player's eligibility and how it will effect recruiting for 2019-20. With the thirteen scholarships now used for 2018-19, can we all put to rest the idea that 11 or 12 basketball scholarships would only be used as a way to reduce costs.

Since it is a very slow work day, I will try to answer my own question. If any posters see a mistake, please correct the list. Senior: JWF, Taylor, Wormley, and the 13th scholarship, Junior: Buie, Sophomore: Coburn, Radovic, Pemberton, Trueheart, Ray Freshman: Schutte, Hughes, Red Shirt Kante I guess this means there are 4 scholarships open for 2019-20.

I believe Pemberton is a junior, and there is also two caveats here - I am not sure about Buie's extra year of eligibility after his injury, and Taylor may apply for another year of eligibility.

Isn’t pemberton now a junior

Good catch stu - I went back to edit my post and afterwards saw you already beat me to it.

[The Shadow]

Cactus, That could be great news. I hope #13 turns out to be a player that can give some meaningful minutes

[The Shadow]

So corrected list is Senior: JWF, Wormley, Taylor ?, #13, Junior: Pemberton, Buie Sophomore: Coburn, Radovic, Trueheart, Ray Freshmen: Schutte, Hughes Red Shirt: Kante So that leaves %5 scholarships for 2019-20.

[stuball888]

Buie is a junior not a senior

[The Shadow]

Stuball888, I went back and corrected the last list. Thanks to all for the input. Now, any news about scheduling besides the Maryland possibility?

[stuball888]

Good job. Have no idea about the schedule. It should be released in August is my guess

[triplec2195]

While it could very well be that the 13th scholarship is a senior it can't be assumed. I don't see where SID SAID THIS WAS A graduate student transfer. It is the likely conclusion however.

[stuball888]

You can still sign high school students so long as they are registered for classes by july28th

[The Shadow]

I did not consider that possibility. That is even better news.

So who is this mystery recruit ????????????????????????????

[HUSID74]

Kante is a red shirt sophomore...he will have 3 years of eligibility after he sits this year. I will bet that Hughes red-shirts as well.

[stuball888]

Still uncommitted incoming freshmen. Matthias Tass 6ft10 220 out of Estonia. Saddiq Bey 6ft7 195 from Washington DC. Also Luka Brajkovic 6ft9 210 from Austria

We have our project in the 6-10 Hughes...we are bringing in another post grad senior to back up Taylor and as insurance.

[stuball888]

Tass is a 4 star recruit

Well SID it seems like you're giving us bits and pieces of something you're already privy to. Why not give us a few more hints and we'll figure out who this kid is, Lol??
