Rick Pitino announced on his radio show Monday night that both senior Wayne Blackshear and junior Montrezl Harrell will be honored during Louisville's Senior Night festivities this Saturday. Pitino also clarified that sophomore guard Terry Rozier, whom many expect will join Harrell in declaring himself eligible for the NBA Draft after this season, will not be honored.
Wayne Blackshear and Montrezl Harrell will be a part of Louisville's senior day ceremony on Saturday, Rick Pitino said. No Terry Rozier.

Pitino last night: "If (Rozier's) going to be a first-round draft choice and it's guaranteed, he'll go. If there's some question, he won't."

It's virtually unheard of to see a sophomore honored during Senior Day festivities anywhere, so I'm not sure how much I'd read into all this. Keep in mind that Harrell was not honored a year ago, and the consensus at that time was that he was virtually a lock to declare for the draft after the season.
Just let it all play out.
