What criteria are you using to qualify WBB as a major sport? Arguably, it's hardly a sport at all.

The wording of the SEC Network’s facebook post actually makes sense

quote:

NFL
NBA
WNBA
MLB

The ONLY school in the country with No. 1 picks in all four of these drafts: LSU


Factually true and impressive. Whoever made the twitter post is the one who claimed the WNBA is a major draft which is just all wrong lol

But regardless, this stat has been true since 2006 when Augustus was drafted so it’s still goofy timing to post this

Georgia fan says it does, so I'm curious how many SEC schools play hockey?

The WNBA is not a major draft, bro. The SEC not having hockey programs doesn’t mean the WNBA and its draft is more major than the NHL and its draft lol

Why don't you take it up with the SEC Network who put out the tweet and listed the leagues...read and comprehend...all I did was post their tweet...

It's really sad how so many on this board are complete simpletons.

And then they will turn around and call someone else "dumb" or "stupid" or whatever.

You know damn well the WNBA is not a major draft or league compared to the NHL

LSU has too many impressive athletic accolades for our fans in this thread to defend that very disengious tweet

Come on, sidewalk.

If the SEC network tweets something out that I know is factually inaccurate, pulling the “they said it ,not me “ card is pretty lame after I made a thread to brag on behalf of the inaccurate tweet

This stat has been true since 2006 once Augustus was drafted. Some dumb SEC network intern on twitter thinks the WNBA > NHL

yes I know the WNBA is not a major draft compared to what the NHL is, but its still the top women's league, so it is the major league of their sport thus a major draft...personally I don't give a shite about the WNBA...

Even I had to upvote this thread OP.

If the Gamecocks had done it ... I'd be spreading the word.

It’s still impressive, but this stat has been true for 17 years. Skenes wasn’t LSU’s first #1 taken in the MLB Draft

They did. But it’s objectively wrong. The WNBA is factually not one of the four major drafts in professional sports.
