Preseason All Big 12 team:
McGruder
JO
J'Covan Brown
Pierre Jackson
Jeff Withey

With potential of Withey and Brown leaving for draft.  I have seen both of them on multiple mock drafts.  :crossfingers:

Who has Brown in a mock draft? LOL.

Sorry only one mock has him.  We can hope he is an idiot and still leaves.

Elijah Johnson will be quite good next year, imo.

Yeah, he will be my personal preseason B12 POTY.

I don't care if it's Johnson or McGruder. Either way we're winners.

Jkeys did you just totally ignore the mock draft board W-cat posted that had browns name on it in this thread?  :facepalm:

I hope he ignored it.  Fairly certain jkeys is talking about actual draft boards and not a blog with a history of being really horrible.  Brown is a worse NBA prospect than Pullen ever was.  Dude is a 6'0" shooting guard with average range and no real ability to get to the rim.

I was talking actual draft boards.  The two draft websites you find are awful, not reflective of what NBA decision makers are thinking at all.  Not to sound big timey, but I do know two people who work in this field, neither have heard of Aldrich being discussed by anyone, and Brown lacks size for an off guard and any real ball handling skills to be a point.  Undersized guards who can score still have a place in the NBA (Bayless, Lou Williams, etc) but Brown would be well served to stay another year.  This year's class is pretty robust due to so many kids delaying a year due to the lockout.

He didn't have a "fantastic start to the year."  He had a great 3-4 game stretch where he dominated K-State, Baylor, and Oklahoma State.

Withey seemed pretty fantastic to me most of the year. 

I mean, his job to to keep guys off the rim and he did a damn good job of that.

ignoring the fact that you bit on what was obvious bait, that's still not a bad start.  k-state and baylor have some good players in their frontcourts.

it's kind of weird how withey has kind of fallen off the map lately.  it's like danny stopped whispering to him or something.

Seff:  Hmmm now that the big 12 is wrapped up eff that guy if he thinks he's going to get the pt to jump.

KU fans:  withey was never very good this year.

Withey was solid, but there is nothing Self could have done to make him NBA draft potential this year. He wasn't even in the same ball park as Cole Aldrich, Thomas Robinson, or the Morris twins.

He got injured in the Mizzou game, and you can't play him and T-Rob at the same time when a team plays small like Purdue and Mizzou did.  Amazing how you clowns talked sh*t on Withey all season long until he started to improve, and now you're expecting him to play at the level of a 1st round draft pick/Big 12 POY.

Does this hurt T-Rob's NBA prospects? Not for the draft, but potentially for long-term success. At 6'8" I would venture that he is a little bit small for a 4 in the NBA, and probably projects as a bigger wing or tweener forward.  If he has trouble guarding whoever Purdue and Mizzou stuck as a small 4, that can't bode well for his ability to guard an NBA wing player, right?

T-Rob will be a poor man's Trevor Booker his rookie year, IMO.  Just for comparo's sake.  I think he'll still be a top 15 pick btw...

A poor man's Trevor Booker?  What the hell are you smoking?  He's projected to go top 3 by both draftexpress and NBADraft.net.  Idiot.

Just looked at a 2012 mock draft for the first time. My goodness what a terrible draft class. College basketball is a joke this year.

You're kidding right?  This is one of the deepest draft classes in years.  Jared Sullinger and Terrence Jones would have been top 5 picks last year.
