Harrison twins to announce Thursday

Decision time has come for five-star Texas guards Andrew and Aaron Harrison. Their college choice should be known later this week.

Decision time has come for five-star Texas guards Andrew Harrison and Aaron Harrison. The twins plan to announce their college choice on ESPNU's "Recruiting Nation" program on Thursday at 5 p.m. ET.

The twins had originally planned to announce their decision on Oct. 29, the day after their birthday, but news broke on Monday via an ESPN promo that they have bumped up the decision.

Andrew Harrison confirmed the news via his @DrewRoc5 Twitter account: "Thursday will be the toughest decision I ever had to make but I'm looking forward to it."

Andrew Harrison is the nation's top-rated point guard in the Class of 2013. He's rated No. 2 overall by Scout. Aaron Harrison is the nation's top shooting guard. He is rated No. 3 overall.

The 6-foot-5 guards are expected to choose between Kentucky, Maryland and SMU.

The Harrisons visited UK for "Big Blue Madness" last year and for another unofficial visit this summer. They have been mulling the idea of returning to Lexington for Madness on Oct. 12.
