Nerlens Noel Changes to 2012


For the past few months, the biggest questions around Nerlens Noel has not been his game, but whether which class he would be a part of. Talks of the star shot-blocker switching to 2012 have been at a premium, and it looks like those talks are true.

According to Dave Telep, Noel will re-classify to 2012 and will become be in a class alongside Shabazz Muhammad, Anthony Bennett, and other great senior players.

Noel will consider Syracuse, Kentucky, Florida, Georgetown, and North Carolina, all of which he hopes to visit; he will also include Providence & UConn.

The 7-footer already has a planned trip to Syracuse for Feb. 11th, but UK will definitely be in the conversation when it is all said and done.

Noel joins Muhammad and Bennett as the top targets for John Calipari in 2012.
