HARRISON TWINS

Aaron Harrison                     Andrew Harrison

#5   6’5″    205                         #2   6’5″   210

PG/SG                                    PG/ SG

OFFER: Yes

Aaron Harrison is listed on many sites as a Shooting Guard, but believe me he can play the Point just as well. His brother in the other hand Andrew is listed as a Point Guard, but he could very easily play SG. Either way these two players are extremely versatile and both have immense size for their positions. Aaron is the better of the two but not by much. Aaron has a better shot from 3 and is a better shooter off the dribble. Calipari has offered both, since they are a package deal.  Other than Arizona and Texas I don’t see anyone that could compete with UK in recruiting these two. A commitment from them for any school would make that team instant contenders. So let’s get them in the Blue and White.

CONFIDENCE METER:  8 of 10

JABARI PARKER

#1   6’7″   215

SF

OFFER: Yes

The best player in the class of 2013 is none other than Jabari Parker. He is super talented in every aspect of the game. He will remind you of a Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. He gets at it on defense. Can score at will. That’s… why he is the #1 player in the country. Calipari should have no trouble selling UK. Enough said.
CONFIDENCE METER:  7 of 10
JULIUS RANDLE

#3    6’8″    235

PF

OFFER: Yes

Randle without a doubt the best low post player in the class of 2013. He has a variety of low post moves which allow him to score at ease almost all the time. It’s when he moves further away from the basket and beyond  that his game shows a sign of need. But when you are such a good low post scorer, why do also have be real good from deep? His rebounding skills are off the charts and he owns every opponent in that department.

There is some late buzz that Randle really likes Kentucky and this may come down to yet anther UK/UNC battle. Right now, UNC seems to have the edge, but they also have Isiah Hicks that has committed. It’s going to be tough to pull Randle from Tobacco Road and UNC, Duke, and NC State, but Kentucky is closing the gap.
