Update: Saturday, 10:56 p.m.
The Wisconsin State Journal’s Jim Polzin reports that the Hauser brothers are splitting up: Sam to Virginia, Joey to Michigan State.
Update: Saturday, 9:33 p.m.
The Hausers have reportedly made a statement about their discernment on where they will play college basketball next.
Sam and Joey Hauser to me on speculation they have already make decision:
“We hope to make a decision in the next few days, but a final decision hasn’t been made yet. … and we never previously committed to Wisconsin.”

Original story
A report says that two brothers who have left Marquette University’s men’s basketball program have decided not to transfer to one of their rivals 75 miles west.
Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the Wisconsin Badgers will not be getting the services of forwards Sam and Joey Hauser, who come from Stevens Point, Wis.
On a completely different topic. I’ve been a bit busy but a few minutes ago I filed another #Badgers hoops story. Haven’t had time to scan web to see if announcement has been made but sources now say Hausers not coming to UW. Story should on site soon.

Both Hauser brothers officially left the Marquette program on April 15.
San played three years at MU, averaging 12.7 points per contest. Joey, a freshman, had 9.7 points per contest last year.
The news comes on an incredibly hard day for UW, for a much greater reason. As of early Saturday evening, assistant coach Howard Moore was in a coma with his wife and daughter killed after a crash in Michigan.
