    They added him on their latest update. Last weak he was on their 2012 mock. I hope he stays in he falls to the Orlando pick.

    Never mind, he's #26 on DX's top 100 prospect list but he's still on the 2012 mock draft.

    He already entered his name into the draft.

    But he still hasn't decided if his going to stay in or not..

    Bebe is only 18. Morey would never draft (and keep) any player that young. That's just not Moneyball.

    If Morey were to see the enormous potential that this kid has, he would.

    Speaking as a UT fan, you have to love a dude that includes free throw shooting in his highlight reel. But what's scary is that there aren't two in a row. Are they and ones or non-shooting fouls in the bonus? Or did he miss the first or second?

    That would be really cool if we can nab both Nogueira and Biyombo from this draft. Gives us exactly what we need. A 5 can contribute now and a 5 to work on and develop.

    Though Noguiera seems even more RAW than Thabeet. I hope he has a better BB IQ or its going to be long ride.

    Hopefully not by us. We have enough young project bigs.

    He's probably gone before that, but it would be great to grab him with our 23rd and have him spend a couple years in Europe.

    Huh? Perhaps at PF we are set there but the only young center we have is Thabeet. He's proved nothing yet.

    He'll probably go in the middle of the overall draft but won't play in the NBA right away. I wouldn't mind picking him up at 23, won't get a quick investment but could work out down the road.

    Also there is a thread in the college forums about him.

    Sick of stuggling to find size.

    We need to turn our D-League team into a big man boot camp. Draft/sign a bunch of journeyman bigs and let CD and Hakeem and Sikma and Deke and whoever go to work.

    One of them has to pan out eventually.

    no such thing, you can never have enough, that's why we bought a D-League team, to take risks on projects
