J-Kel predicted this, and did a nice piece on SU's guard recruits on June 13th (Simmons, Gilbert and Huerter at the time):

[B]If you couldn’t guess by now, at this point I think my preference would be the No. 73-ranked Huerter, as strange as that might sound considering the other two guys are rated No. 6 and No. 23 in the nation. But here’s the thing: last year’s Syracuse team suffered from an enormous dearth of shooting and just overall skill at the guard position. Landing Kobi Simmons would follow that recent trend of getting big, long, athletic guards with questionable shooting ability, while Gilbert, as exciting as he is, also struggles sometimes to knock down jumpers. Add in the fact that both are early entry candidates and it makes it pretty clear that Huerter should probably be the choice.

Huerter, after all, is an exceptional shooter with great size, and the ability to play either guard position. His passing is that good, and his athleticism is underrated.

Obviously, the situation has now changed depending on what Battle does. My knowledge of him is by rep' only -- part of which is that he's one of the most dynamic scorers in the class. Bottom line, if he comes on board, it'd be sweet if Huerter re-classified.
