He is going to test the waters and for now keep his college eligibility. However, his testing the waters is just going to prove he is a top 10 pick. So yeah he is basically as good as gone as expected. 

Scholarship Roster so far for next year.

Lance Ware-back                    
Jacob Toppin-back
Daimion Collins- back
 Oscar Tshiebwe- back 
CJ Fredrick- back
Sahvir Wheeler-back                       
Chris Livingston- incoming frosh
Cason Wallace incoming frosh

Keion Brooks- Most likely back

It will be interesting to see what transfer(s) they land to round out the team.  I thought maybe we would have known about Reeves by now but who knows.

That's not an official back for Keion. I take that as more of a telling Sahvir to be great. Sahvir is official though. Also that is Keion's dad  and not Keion Brooks jr.

Yeah totally not official at all but still though maybe it implied something, probably not.

Keion Brooks Jr's twitter is KeionB_12 and his dad's is keion_brooks.

Correct.  I thought it potentially implied something his son may be back, without anything official.

I'm sure most would prefer Brooks would move on, I don't think I'd do.  I'd like to see him take a couple steps forward and produce more.

I didn't take it that way at all with what brooks dad said. I will wait to hear something official from Brooks himself. I don't care either way about brooks moving on. I am neutral on that.

It all depends on how good the two freshmen are - Livingston and Wallace. At least one of those two need to be able to shoot the three, if not both. Three point shooting looks to be a need. That said, I like next year's roster better than this year's.

I think the season pretty much hinges on Cason Wallace.  He has to be elite and he needs to be able to play the point.  I don't see this team being overly successful with Wheeler at the point.

There is certainly a ceiling with Wheeler. Obviously a massive upgrade from the prior season, but he is only going to take you so far. I don't see Oscar being anything beyond what he was this year; so, yeah, UK appears to be just "running it back" and hoping with a minor tweak or two can be an elite team.

I hope that he is a dawg and I feel like he will be.

And hopefully fully healthy when it matters.
