And so it begins.

Thanks for the memories guys. 2014 was a lot of fun.

[ukmelanie]

Good luck to them.It is going to be very hard to replace them.

 

[wldctky_rivals70430]

I think they will go...but am waiting for a credible source

 

[Randy Bob]

Really hope they do well..

 

[AGEE11]

Are we sure? Their dad just gave an interview that is posted on KSR saying they hadn't decided yet

 

[UofKBlue]

This guy also states that UK is expected to hold a press conference tomorrow to announce others' intentions. Guess we shall see soon.

 

[Pope John Wall II]

Bummer. Really wanted them back.

 

[FiveStarCat]

Good luck, hope they make a ton of money. Thanks for two Final Fours and great memories.

 

[brianpoe]

Best of luck boys, thanks for all your hard work and bringing us back-to-back final fours!

 

[dckala2_rivals16641]

Come on down Malik newman

 

[Kats23]

That was quick considering their Dad just said a few hours ago they were just starting to talk about the process. Oh well, not surprised. Good luck boys.

 

[GonzoCat90]

Couldn't ask for more from a pair of guys. This year was a bonus run from them. I hope everyone finally appreciates what they did for us now that they're gone.

 

[FlCATFan_rivals26961]

If true, best of luck to Aaron and Andrew. It has been a real pleasure watching them play and we owe much of the 2014 tourney run to them.

Thanks guys.

 

[coolcat9lives]

Good luck to those boys! Hope they have long careers in the NBA.

 

[MWes11]

Thank you for the great memories. Best of luck in the future. I hope they both have long NBA careers. They took us on an amazing 2 year ride.

yeah that guy

 

[TrueBlueMGH]

These two are in part responsible for one of the most unbelievable 12 month spans in the history of Kentucky basketball. I hope they get out there and prove a ton of people wrong, including some in our own fanbase.

 

[BigSexyCat]

They took us on a great ride. Aaron's clutch shooting in the 2014 tourny will be stuff of legend. Hope they have a great professional career.

 

[RoyKent]

Hard to top a championship game appearance and a Final Four. Wish Aaron would come back but at this point they probably can't improve their draft status.

Hope they get drafted and aren't stuck in the D league and/or Europe for most of their career.

 

[revcort]

Well it's certainly no surprise to most of us, I'd say.

And it's good that they are declaring early so that Calipari can finish recruiting next year's team.

 

[MomHogan]

Kind of assumed this would happen… thanks for the memories… great having you as part of the Big Blue Nation! Good luck to the twins!

Someone oust this troll

 

[UKSlim]

If true, I wish both tremendous luck and huge success. I sincerely thank them for coming to UK and being a part of the BBN. I will always appreciate both of those young men... AND their parents for giving us the privilege of watching them play.

 

[dckala2_rivals16641]

Jfcats just bein realistic.

I don't think that's an unfair comment. I don't think either is projected as a 1st round pick. Many 2nd rounders spend time in the D league or wind up going overseas...Darius is currently overseas playing and spent time in the D league.

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

If this turns out to be true, then I am glad for them to get to fulfill their lifelong dream. I hope they have long and successful NBA careers.

Also, this should really be good news concerning Newman.

he started posting after Wisonsin loss sat and almost every post is making snide remarks against UK or taking up for Lou

Best of luck to the Twins!!!

I'm glad they gave us 2 years and 2 FFs as Wildcats.

Hopefully, they'll have similar success in the NBA.

This!! It is best for UK if they are going that they announce early. I hate to see them go but heck maybe we get two great players to take their place. There is a lot of good players out there waiting to see who stays and who goes. I think if this is true that the dominos fall quickly in the recruiting game and we get some commits in a couple of days.

Aaron won't be drafted.

Hope Andrew has some good workouts or he'll run the risk of going undrafted, too.

In light of that, a very questionable decision, but best of luck to them, hope it pans out and the last two years have been a lot of fun.

 

[StubbornPenny]

Their legacy is two Final Fours, and let's face it, that ain't bad. Thanks for all the blood, sweat, and tears guys. Best of luck to you in your chosen profession. All we ask is please pimp UK as hard as you can!

There is literally a zero percent chance that Andrew goes undrafted.

He's currently projected to go #53 overall by Jonathan Givony at DraftExpress (the guy who is most dialed in to the draft, IMO). There's 60 overall picks... he's already dangerously close.

Not saying I expect that to happen, just that it's a distinct possibility.

Gary Parrish is reporting it too.

Good luck to them. I know we all wish they would stay. It's been a pleasure watching them.

Also, I don't know if that guy above is a troll or not, but he did just use the word "pathetic," which is the word I most associate with Louisville fans. Well, along with jealous and delusional. Those three words pretty much cover it, but I digress.
