Aaron Harrison has more great things to say about Kentucky

by:David Jackson06/16/12
Half of everyone's favorite pair of high school twins was interviewed recently by NBE Basketball recently. Aaron Harrison fielded questions about his recruiting process. He had some more great things to say about Kentucky in the interview.  
Aaron, a 6-foot-5, 210-pound shooting guard, told NBE Sports that KentuckyMarylandBaylor, and Villanova are the main schools being considered by him and his brother. He claims no favorites, but did concede that one program generates the most buzz when he and Andrew talk college. “Yeah, like Kentucky probably,” Harrison said. Asked why it is UK that is in that spot, Harrison replied, “They put people in the NBA and their style of play is great.” Aaron shared his thoughts on Kentucky head coach John Calipari, who led the Wildcats to the national championship this past season. “He’s great, he says we’re his number one priority in the class of 2013,” Harrison said. As for what hearing Coach Cal say that means to him, Harrison remarked, “It’s a great feeling. [He is] such a wonderful coach–great career, put so many people in the NBA. Feels amazing.”  
Aaron and his twin Andrew have said before that they are a package deal, and they plan to announce their decision on their birthday, Oct. 28th. UK fans are dying to get these kids to commit and they are obviously very high on Coach Cal's wish list. Kentucky, Baylor, Maryland and Villanova round out the twins' top four schools.

He tweeted out this picture of his knee with the caption "bumped my knee kinda hard this morning". Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that the injury was enough to scare off Baylor, Maryland or Villanova. Shucks.
