Well this could be placed in either PRO or college, but since everyone seems to be worried about the UK coaching position let break the tension a little bit.


He was drafted by the NBA, the ABA, The NFL, and the MLB, his senior year in college. He was the first and I think the only player to be drafted by all at the same time.

OK who is he.
What year was this.
What College did they attended.
Which sport did he choose
Who was his first team.
Is it possibly John Elway. The year was I think 1983 or 1984, he went to Stanford University, chose football over the others and im not sure on who he was with first but I dont think it was Denver, maybe the Falcons?
Bo Jackson
Dave Winfield...
Deio Sanders?

Jim Thorpe?
Winfield was drafted by the Padres and became a MLB hall of famer but was also drafted by the other leagues as well if I'm not mistaken. He attended the University of Minnesota. He was drafted by the Vikings despite not playing college football. He was also drafted by the Utah Stars and Atlanta Hawks after playing both college basketball and baseball.

The only other person to be drafted by 3 majors is Dave Logan (MLB, NBA, and NFL)
Here's one I've used for years. How many Div1 College Team mascots names don't end in the letter s. For example "Wildcats" wouldn't qualify but "Crimson Tide" does count.

Here's 1 to get started:

1- Alabama Crimson Tide
