Tony Mitchell was a second-team pick? That's laughable. The kid has more talent in his left pinky than any other player in the Sun Belt. And don't give me the BS about him being a freshman. That excuse doesnt fly in college basketball, and especially not in the Sun Belt.

I have to agree with Brett on this: preseason polls are from the coaches and these coaches are a "show-me first" vote.

I don't think anyone questions where his talent level is compared to everyone else.

The women's soccer team was a preseason pick for 4th in the West. We just found how that turned out.

He will have to prove himself against Rubit, Adams & Thomas. It may be easier to prove himself against Thomas as his supporting cast is not as good as the other two.

I think he'll do fine, but to say that those guys should not be considered better than someone who has not played yet shows that you were not paying attention to those other guys last year.

Tony Mitchell, as good as he is, is not playing against scrubs. And, he's going to get these guys' best every time he's on the floor with them because they'll see it as a chance to dominate someone who is a sure NBA draft pick, possibly raising their own NBA draft possibilities.

Meh, I almost kind of wish they just left him off the list. Give him one more thing to prove and after his layoff, and you just know he is ready to take it out against anyone and everyone we play this season.

You wouldn't like Tony when he is angry...
