I saw a mock draft, on the ESPN ticker, that had him going third to Philly. Their #1 was the GT catcher.

Good for him, but I hate the Tigers. The Pistons were the only team in Detroit worth a damn, but that was a long time ago.

His hard work has paid off. He deserves it and I can't wait to watch his career take off

Yeah, but overall #1's make bank.

Has Auburn ever had a #1 overall before?

Our coach should send out a tweet after he signs taking all the glory for his development like Kirby Smart did this year.

Have any schools had a number 1 in all of the big 3 sports? Bruce needs to make it happen

I made a post on the Rant a few weeks back. The only Draft Pick Triple Crown holder in the SEC is LSU.

https://www.secrant.com/rant/sec-football/1-overall-picks-from-sec-schools-in-the-big-3-professional-sports/76604294/

NFL - Billy Cannon (1960), Jamarcus Russell (2007)
NBA - Shaquille O'Neal (1992), Ben Simmons (2016)
MLB - Ben McDonald (1989)

Next closest now that Mize went #1?

Auburn (need an overall #1 in the NBA)
Kentucky (need an overall #1 in the MLB)
Vandy (need an overall #1 in the NBA)

No other SEC school has a #1 overall pick in multiple sports.

With Mize's selection, Auburn has five overall #1 choices in all sports to match LSU's, Auburn just has those five in 2 sports and LSU has their's in 3.

This could very well happen soon with Bruce as HC.

Not unthinkable to believe Wiley could be it. Massive long shot, but certainly plausible.

If he has a monster season then it very well could happen.

Not plausible. Wiley's extensive knee/leg injury history actually eliminates him from being #1

That's before you factor in that Wiley would need an entire overhaul of his play style / skillset to be in competition for #1

I saw where it is predicted he will get an $8.1M signing bonus.

Does anybody know him? I want to be his friend.
