Syracuse Basketball Recruiting: 2017 Target Hameir Wright Considering Prep School

Almost two weeks ago, ESPN's Jeff Borzello tweeted that Class of 2017 forward Hameir Wright, a Syracuse Orange target, told ESPN that he was going to take a post graduate year and reclassify to the Class of 2018. While Wright may still be weighing his options of where he will play basketball after the 2016-17 season, he will not be reclassifying, according to his AAU coach Jim Hart.

In order to reclassify, a high school student is either moving ahead or back a year due to their academic standing. If there are academic issues, a recruit would consider going back a year, while recruits with sufficient credits may decide to graduate early.
