ESPN All American Teams has One Wildcat

ESPN.com has released their “Way Too Early All American Teams” and Julius Randle is the only Kentucky Wildcat listed.

Here is their reasoning for Randle’s selection:

Julius Randle, Kentucky: Figuring out which of Kentucky’s approximately 7,985 McDonald’s All-Americans to include on these preseason lists was probably the toughest part of this arrangement. The Harrison Twins are still a great bet, but so is Randle, who is a little bit like Gordon — a fantastic future pro occasionally overshadowed by Wiggins and Parker, the only two players ranked higher than him in the 2013 ESPN 100. Kentucky is going to be very, very good whether Wiggins decides to play there or not. Randle is going to have a lot to do with that.

i am sure there are other Kentucky Wildcats that could use this as motivation for next season.

Oh, Andrew and Aaron Harrison are listed as honorable mention.

Which player or players do you think should have been given some love on the All American teams?
