They are set to announce their college choice. I always assumed they would end up at Kentucky. However, I was surprised to see that SMU is in their final 3. Picking SMU would be a huge boost for Big East basketball. You guys would then have to stop bashing SMU basketball.
Maryland & NC State on the rise, baby... wonder if the Terps get the Harrison boys. Andrew is the truth.
I'd be shocked if it's not UK. Felt like that for a long time.
Buzz woulda snagged 'em had he bolted for the Mustangs.

After they get the twins they're making another run at Buzz. It's a little backwards, but we are talking about SMU here.

Larry Brown is at SMU now. Remember him?

When they announced their final 3 they admittedly said SMU was in a distant third, there's no way they're going there. They're going to UK.

I'm not sure that even Larry Brown remembers who Larry Brown is.

Will they take Buzz for only one year, like the Harrison twins?
Big article today about the twins and make it seem as if it is between UK and Maryland. Why is Maryland in the picture? Under Armor sponsorship. Dad says for awhile the only guy the boys could talk to was the UA rep for their AAU team.
Dad is a used car salesmen. Says college recruiting is 25 times worse than the industry he is in.
Don't have time to find the link. Can do so later.
Turgeon's ties to Texas probably don't hurt matters for MD either.

Shocked Crean wasn't involved.

You are correct. I am going with Terps. Doesn't matter they will probably be one and dones anyway, but UMD will be loaded if they do commit.
UK two for one deal, I don't even call this recruiting.

At least not until we can figure out how to do it successfully. Then it's just utilizing market inefficiencies better than other schools.
I believe they will choose UK as the temptation of having the biggest opportunity to win a NC will be too tempting.
In other news, Julius Randle narrowed his list to 6, cutting out Duke and UNC among others. UK, NC State are my guesses as to his 2 favorites.
Silly little SMU had no chance...
I thought this was about 2 blond, busty swimsuit broads.

It was going to be, but JayBee didn't approve so we had to scrap the whole idea.
At least one of the Harrison's needs to improve his defense.

No stopping that whatever you do.
Mike Brey has a meeting scheduled with the twins for next week, after their announcement.

Nope. It's about 2 blonde, busty swimsuit broads and SMU.
Terps lose out.
They are Kentucky bound.

I must say I am shocked to say the least.
In college hoops, it's Kentucky's world. The rest of us are just looking to share a little space. :(

Must've been that new basketball dorm that tipped the scale toward UK, aina?
I need a shower after that. Terps completely wasted their time and resourses, and now a week of espn fawning over
cool cal.
Best part of their UK announcement was the quote, "For the next four years we will be attending the University of Kentucky." Yeah, that's gonna happen.

My favorite, ""I liked the wall with the GPA of the players on it". Really Mom? Did they also post the $40,000 he gave to Marcus Camby or the tampering of Derrick Rose's entrance exam? God only knows what else he's done.
Just call it what it is, the best path to the NBA. Can't blame you for that.
