Who yall got?

Put em out there and I'll decide on the winner.

For A&M
NBA - MIL SF Khris Middleton - Was averaging 21.1-6.2-4.1 before the season got cut short by Covid. 2-time All-Star. Top 5ish SF in the league.
MLB - LAD SP Ross Stripling - 3.51 Career ERA (4 years) and was an All-Star in 2018. A&M's weakest pro sport by far.
NFL - DEN OLB Von Miller - Von is an all-timer (Super Bowl MVP, 7x All pro (3x 1st Team), All Decade Team, etc). He's probably at the tail end of his prime. Mike Evans and Myles Garrett are in the conversation too.

Auburn

NBA-Chuma Okeke - Yet to play a game, yikes.
MLB-Josh Donaldson - Solid, but aging. Was MVP just a few years ago.
NFL-Cam Newton - Another former MVP but now can't find a job. Would have been much more of a slam dunk here even just a year ago. Could make an argument Dee Ford belongs here now. As prestigious as the Auburn football program is, the current NFL crop is pretty underwhelming. Decent amount of guys rostered, but not a ton of success.

TIL, Khris Middleton went to A&M... Not sure how I never knew that.

For LSU
NBA - Ben Simmons- 2x All Star at 23 years old
NFL - Jamal Adams - 2x Pro Bowler at 24 years old. 1st Team All-Pro last year. Could have gone a number of ways with this one, but I think Adams is going to end up being one of the GOAT safeties.
MLB - Alex Bregman - 2x All Star at 26 years old. Almost went Lemahieu here, I feel like he gets almost no recognition for how good he is.

This is going to be tough to beat because there are no real gaps.

I'd probably take Khris over Ben (fairly close) and Von over Adams, but Bregman is significantly ahead of Ross.

What? I never knew that's where Judge went.

That is a very good group.

I thought for sure Arizona had another couple guys in the MLB other than Kingery, Rickard and Melancon. If they did like they used to they'd be in the thick of it too.

NBA - Aaron Gordon/Deandre Ayton
MLB - Scott Kingery
NFL - Nick Foles/Rob Gronkowski

Let's try to find the most obscure school with a loaded squad. Fresno is the school to beat. Here is my submission.

UConn

MLB - George Springer
NBA - Kemba Walker
NFL - Byron Jones (CB for Dallas who set the world record long jump)

LOL Farmer you rascal - I was literally just thinking "there has to be a decent NFL player from the late 2000s UConn teams to put with Kemba and Springer"
