Kentucky head coach John Calipari officially announced his 2013 recruiting class on Thursday.
The defending national champions' No. 1 ranked class features the No. 1 PG Andrew Harrison (Richmond, Texas/Travis) and the No. 1 SG Aaron Harrison (Richmond, Texas/Travis).
"Aaron is more of a scoring guard who can make shots and make plays at the rim," Calipari said. "He can also play some point in a pinch. Like his brother, Andrew, he has the ability to physically dominate the opponent. Andrew comes in ready to play physically at the point-guard position. He's a driver, slasher and playmaker with great size. He and his brother Aaron have the ability to be great on-ball defenders."

Aaron and Andrew will attend the same school and provide them with immediate impact elite guard play the moment they step on campus. The schools that will be discussed and graded are SMU, Maryland, Kentucky, Villanova and Baylor.
Andrew is the elite point guard and Aaron an elite shooting guard. They both can easily play both guard positions and excel and at very high level. They both are multiple position defenders and their size, skill and toughness is what coaches dream about having on their team.
This will be fun to watch unfold and see who will be the happiest coach in America Larry Brown, Mark Turgeon, John Calipari, Jay Wright or Scott Drew. Stay Tuned!
