Maybe it's already been discussed, but why would he reclassify to 2018 if he is hurt and would just redshirt this year anyhow ?

Is it to become familiar with Wade's system?

From what I have gathered in reading other stuff, I believe the main reason is because he was already graduating from h.s.; therefore, if he had not reclassified, he likely would have just done a year at a prep school; so why not go ahead and reclassify. Now he gets into a college training program and has the rehab care of a college staff. Plus he has the added benefit of being around the program, practicing with the team once he is well enough, and learns the system, all which will give him a leg up on incoming 2019 class next year. When you look at it from that perspective, it makes a lot of sense and is a very smart decision for him.
