Kentucky's Nerlens Noel's cool haircut in Maryland game

Kentucky Wildcats head coach John Calipari talks with forward Nerlens Noel (3) during a time in the game against the Northwood Seahawks at Rupp Arena.

All eyes were on the the new Kentucky freshmen class Friday night in the team's season-opener against Maryland, with college hoops fans trying to get a glimpse of coach John Calipari's newest group of youngsters.

No. 1 recruit Nerlens Noel, a 6-10 shot-blocking specialist, has been stuck in the unfortunate situation of trying to fill the shoes of No. 1 draft pick Anthony Davis, Kentucky's big man last season who went on to become national player of the year while leading the young Wildcats a the national championship.

Davis was best known for his unibrow. After Noel's national TV debut Friday at Barclays Center, it's fair to say this freshman has a signature look of his own.

Enter flattop hair cut + cool lettering stitched in the back of his head.

If you've seen Noel, odds are you've seen his Fresh Prince of Bel-Air haircut by now.

But his latest look is all sorts of fantastic, as he has "UK" stitched into the back. Talk about school spirit.

Take a look.
