The draft happened as expected. 255 guys that were selected, none of them Texas Aggies. I did take some pleasure in seeing Brady Quinn free fall. It wasn't like 21 teams didn't need a quaterback. The Dophins in particular were looking to retool their offense, but they too passed on Brady. As a conference, the Big-12 had 29 guys drafted. Here is the team breakdown:

Texas - 7
Nebraska - 4
Kansas State - 3
Oklahoma - 3
Texas Tech - 3
Baylor - 2
Oklahoma State - 2
Colorado - 2
Iowa State - 2
Missouri - 1
Kansas - 0
Texas A&M - 0

We can take comfort in two things. 1) We were not the only Big-12 school shunned by the draft, and 2) why would a basketball school care about the NFL draft?

Missouri and Baylor had players go in the draft...but not A&M. Ouch.
