The DeAndre Daniels decision has finally been made, and he will be playing for the Kentucky Wildcats in 2011. I have been [URL=”http://www.nationofblue.com/sources-deandre-daniels-kentucky-4163/”]speculating for a couple of weeks [/URL]that Daniels would eventually end up at Kentucky, and it just goes to show when Kentucky is serious about a recruit, they usually get their man.
[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]Daniels adds another top recruit to an already unbelievable class that includes Anthony Davis, Mike Gilchrist, Marquis Teague, and Kyle Wiltjer. The #1 class for 2011 is listed below and is provided by Scout.com [TABLE]

Now it will be interesting to see if Cal talks Daniels into suiting up this year for the Cats and add some depth to the bench. Either way, this is a great pickup for the Cats and makes an already strong class that much deeper.
