They have Tony Mitchell going #5 in the 2013 draft

I really hope he stays that long for us. I saw in an ESPN mock draft a week or two ago that he would be late 2nd round/undrafted in next year's (2012) draft.

Don't most draftees hold out until they are more of a sure thing in the 1st round if they have remaining eligibility? If I remember correctly, there's quite a pay difference from 1st to second round.

...under the old CBA. We'll see how it all works out. I would love to see Mitchell here for the 2012-2013 season, but if he leaves as a lottery pick next year, that will probably mean UNT made some noise in the NCAA tourney, and that's alright with me!

Ditto. Thanks for bringing up the CBA point too.

Next year's draft will have an overwhelming amount of talent, much to do with this year's CBA. I don't think Tony makes it as a lottery pick if he comes out this year.

They also listed him as a freshman coming out in 2013,he wont drop a whole round because of the talent coming out next year. If youre projected to be a top 5 pick, I can guarantee he will still be a lotto pick in 2012
