Happy 4th of July!
Now, imagine a scenario in which the draft of every sport was combined, and a ranking was established to determine which colleges were the most successful in producing draft prospects.
Seems like a bit of a complicated system, right? Well it is, but ESPN did this exact type of ranking anyway, and Kentucky ranked pretty high.
The Wildcats were fourth, as UK athletics has produced 93 draft picks in the last 10 draft classes across these leagues: NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, MLS, WNBA, MLL (lacrosse) and NFP (softball). That gave them an ultimate draft score of 1351.
