Behind the Scenes: The Harrison Twins’ Announcement
Remember that time the Harrison twins announced they were going to Kentucky? That was pretty sweet, right? But if 30 seconds of announcement was pretty good, how great would 17+ minutes of behind-the-scenes footage be? Well that’s exactly what High School Hopefuls has provided for us.
Highlights include their down-to-earth parents, who legitimately have pretty great grammar by the way, to some guy at the end saying that their announcement “wasn’t one commit, it was two. At the same time. Like the song says.”
I don’t know what song he’s talking about, but I know I’m on board. But check out the above video and get excited for the Harrisons all over again.
Six months until Big Blue Madness.

Probably want to take the comment about the grammar down. It doesn’t bother me at all cause I know you were just joking, but someone being way too sensitive will call you racist.
where have I seen this before
This was posted a day or two ago….
I don’t really get the purpose of the grammar comment…
Anybody else love how Maggard tweets like he knows what’s going on in the world of recruiting?
I’m a high and mighty sports blogger on KSR!! I determine whose grammar is good, bad, and “pretty great.” I’m sorry not everyone on this planet has had the opportunities you’ve had to learn proper grammar.. Truly insensitive.
Wow, Corey, that “legitimately” comment is WAY out of line. Joking or not.
And, as I said yesterday on another thread, this “all access” stuff bothers me. It got us off to such a great start last year. These are 18 and 19 year old kids, not rock stars or NBA players yet.
What’s up with the grammar comment? Love KSR but that is bad.
Corey getting hammered like BCG on any night of the week.
Huh? Deja vous? Groundhog Day?
This guy is a hack. How in the hell does he keep posting stuff on this mediocre, at best, blog!?!?!
Class Acts….and gonna be our leaders in ’13-14 on and off the court.
Video has already been posted, please stop being repetitive. Also please take down the twins are coming shirt, its starting to get to be a little much
Corey Nichols,
OMG, your quote of “their down-to-earth parents, who legitimately have pretty great grammar by the way”
is so racist. would have said that about white parents, of course not.
yes corey, beleive it or not some black people can speak english quite well. dont sound so shocked.
I got chills, they’re multiplyin’
11. This guy is a hack – no doubt.
13. Agreed – the twins are coming shirt is such a big douche chill moment. It is just embarrassing.
Remember that time when Drew posted this video? Two days ago.
My cousin’s friend in Texas just told my uncle that the Harrison twins are going to Maryland.
The only way you can get anyone to ever comment on your crap is if it’s truly shit. I seriously think your terrible posts are on purpose because you know it will drum up a lot of comments. That being said, you’re a racist POS. I would love to see what the twins and their parents think of that comment.
Grammer comment is very racist.
Take this down! How has somebody not seen how inappropriate this is? Also, it was posted two days ago, this is the worst i have seen Corey.
I really hope the twins don’t read KSR because that’s straight up disrespectful.
Wow! PLEASE remove that “highlights include their down-to-earth parents, who legitimately have pretty great grammar by the way” comment. That is extremely disrespectful & highly racist. C’mon Corey!
The comment was inappropriate but please quit with the racist crap. Everyone always tries to throw in the race card…….it’s sad
racist in nature, whether intended or not. Can’t believe this is not being corrected. New low for Corey…if that is even possible.
If it had been some hillbilly eastern ky parents of a player the comment would have been just as inappropriate.
Why shooing they have good grammar Corey?
Stereotype would be a better word……
Yeah that comment needs to go. It doesn’t offend me and I’m sure corey meant nothing by it but there’s no reason for it to be on the site.
Hey everybody, try calming down. I was referring to the sentence where he says that a dirty room “is something with with I can deal.” Who goes out of their way to make sure they don’t end sentences in a preposition? I refuse to take it down, or change it. Any inferences you make, racial or otherwise, are your own, and if you view it that way, you should honestly be ashamed of yourself.
30 we saw this video two days ago, no need to repeat. So yeah you should take it down.
Repost. If you don’t have anything new to contribute, don’t post something just because you are supposed to at 9 AM.
32 agreed
30.) Still a God-awful writer.
I personally have no problem with what Corey said.
its good that he notices the facts of our liberal society
Thank you Corey for your love and support.
30) so BRAVE! You’re fighting the good fight, son.
So the parents have “…pretty great grammar…”? Well, that’s mighty white of them!!
35 and what are the facts that he notices? please tell us and try not to sound stupid.
I personally don’t like this. Not a good thing they’re learnin and stuffz. Don’t want them at my school or town!
I would never have allowed this to happen if it was my South! Shameful.
32) completely agree
38) Google 35’s name…
I will attack you from the North…
YES 32 IT IS A REPOST BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HE HAD TO GET THE GOOD WORD OUT!!!! NOW GET ON YOUR….
I would only be more surprised about the grammar if they were Cherokee.
30 – The infereces most are making about your subtly racist post are warranted. Own up to your mistake instead of ironically telling everyone else they should be “ashamed.”
Grab on and take a good swing!
Liking this post. Liking it a lot. How about some watermelons?
Amen, Corey! You and I should do a show together at the Laugh Factory soon, brother!
Racist thread. Please take this down before families of other recruits see it.
Atta boy! Speak your mind, Corey!
30)Leaving this thread up for the sake of your pride is neglecting how the vast majority of other recruits will perceive the statement.
Tiger Woods’ mom could sew him a pair of new socks in 3 minutes. Anyone else suddenly feel like chicken and waffles?
I’m outta’ here.
I should could have used a writer like this to help me whip up a speech or two.
Well said 32. Please. Take down this post Corey. Your posts have been nothing but awful the past month
$200 says the mom is reading from a teleprompter.
Ahhh…the ol’ backhanded compliment served with tinge of racism. I love KSR but this comment is way out of line. I wonder if the writer of the post would be so surprised if Wiltjer or Polson’s parents “legitimately have pretty great grammar.” Just awful and way below KSR’s standards.
How much $ will the “Twins” see from all of these ‘Keep Calm’ t-shirts being sold? Not a penny. For a site that seems more progressive as of late for benefits/secruity/stipends or whatever you want to call it for student althletes, then turning around and advertising those shirts…now THAT is what I find offensive.
30) People reading the post will misinterpret because the context of your comment is not clear at all. I understand you meant no harm, but it has unintended meaning and sounds really bad. I would change it.
What is Kentucky University?
Corey, this is a bit much.
They couldn’t possibly have gone to school to learn that gramma
Knowing Corey’s way of writing I watched the video (before I read the comments) and paid extra attention to the parents to see what made him include that comment. After watching it, how would you expect anybody to know thats what the comment was referrencing? At best I would say it was a failed joke but I thought Coreys comment twlking down to the commenters was much worse than the original post. Corey in the future please come down from your high horse and mingle with us normal fans.
Corey Nichols Sucks
You all should take it easy on Corey. He never saw a colored until he left home for school.
Deal with it!
C’mon folks. Corey has black friends. Plenty of them. Eats with them and everything. He didn’t mean anything by pointing out that a couple of black people surprisingly had good grammar. They speak so well.
Corey, you come across as ignorant, hope KSR offloads you. Totally off base, starting to think you’re an infiltrator to the BBN.
