It has just been announced that ESPNU is retroactively amending its Top 200 Basketball Recruits from the 2007 class.  With Taylor King having transferred from Duke to Villanova at the end of the 2008 season, King will now be eligible to play for the Wildcats in the upcoming season.

Hence, King’s listing as the 37th best high school recruit in 2007 has been lowered by ESPNU, now ranking him 79th in that 2007 class.

In an unrelated bit of news, ESPNU has also announced that it will be changing Seth Curry’s high school recruit ranking from no. 152 to 8.  Congrats on the move, Seth.
