I'm sick and tired of hearing that so and so has a better football program than UConn, or that "we don't want another Kansas football in our conference", so I rehashed the pro sports draft picks by schools rumored to be in the running to go to the Big 12.
NFL Draft Picks (2005 to 2016):
24 Cincinnati
23 UConn
16 USF
14 UCF
12 BYU
9 Houston
7 Memphis
Here is the Big 12 over that time period:
61 Oklahoma
42 Texas
29 TCU
28 Baylor
28 West Virginia
18 Oklahoma St.
18 Texas Tech
16 Kansas St.
10 Iowa St.
9 Kansas
What about the NBA (2005 to 2016)?
15 UConn
9 Memphis
3 Cincinnati
2 USF
1 BYU
1 UCF
0 Houston
MLB (2005 to 2016)?
45 Houston
40 UCF
39 UConn
37 USF
28 BYU
23 Memphis
19 Cincinnati
WNBA (2005 to 2016)?
15 UConn
4 USF
3 BYU
1 Houston
0 Cincinnati
0 Memphis
0 UCF
What about other major professional sports like soccer and hockey?
UConn wins in a landslide.
