Am I the only one baffled by the fact that Mario Boggan isn't even listed on any mock drafts out there? I mean come on, he won't be a great player but not even on the draft board? Give me a break. He's big, somewhat of a combo forward, he's physical, he can rebound, he's a very solid defender, and he's tough as nails. He reminds me of Ryan Gomes in some ways. But again, why is he not even considered an 07 draftee?
I would have expected him to go late 1st or early 2nd since I havent looked at any of the 07 Mock drafts....that is nuts though. He is having a great season for OSU, and he has proven to be a big scorer and player. In that tripple overtime game agaisnt Texas, he has like 37 point and 20 rebounds AND a game winner. He is one of the best 5 players in the Big 12 IMO. He should be in all people mock drafts, and IMO, I would pick him early 2nd round at the latest.
He's your classic example of a small college PF, I love guys like Boggan....will probably be a mid-2nd rounder or be a FA. Boy can that guy score though, man.NBADraft.net doesn't even have a profile for him, laziness is my best guess.

He's tough as nails, he puts up beautiful numbers, but teams will pass on him because of his size. Someone will steal him late in the second round and they'll be very happy with the pick.
