I think he would've been a top 5 pick in this upcoming draft. But I have to admit, I like that he's staying for his sophomore season. To me it's pretty surprising.

He has a lot of tools and skills that need refining.

You can't get ready for the NBA in college. Bad move.

Yeah I don't think he's hurting his draft position. I think it's a good move to get himself into the paint some more. Scout's kinda' leaned on the fact that he's 6'11" and doesn't play in the paint.

If he can improve Baylor's record and develop some post moves and be more consistent, he'll easily be a top 3 pick in the following draft.

Very smart move

He's a promising big man, he's got excellent talent, size and skills. His post up game needs to be better and he can improve more

well.....

He wouldve been a lottery pick if he went for the draft, and next year is jam packed with great prospects including Quincy Miller who will play for Baylor

But then again he hasnt solidified himself as a PF. I think he was a big time perimeter player in HS, but because of his lack of jumpshot he isnt gonna be a great SF in the NBA.

^^I think for that fact it was smart to stay in school

I think it's good for him to develop another year in college, again citing what has been said already.

If he went pro today, his ideal player would be Andray Blatche.

Great move and man this is great for the college game I'm shocked

Baylor is going to have a squad next year and Jones will develop his skills even more

Love that a lot of players are staying in the NCAAs its making the College game better and is going to pave the way for a lot more players staying and not rushing the proccess
