Never mind Seimone Augustus going first overall in 2006. So Baseball, Football, Men’s Basketball and Women’s Basketball.

Cannon was the #1 pick in the NFL also even though he played in the AFL to start his career. Funny story about him signing a contract with both the AFL and NFL after the draft. The Rams filed suit and a Judge ruled against the Rams.
