Drafted players by college team and conference after third round - Michigan and UW lead with seven
Michigan and Washington lead the way with seven picks each after three rounds. Florida State was clearly in a peak roster year, injured QB or not, and probably would have done some damage in a 12 team format last year. But I digress. Here is a list, courtesy of CBS Sports.

Awwwww, I almost wanna give them a half point for Keon Coleman.
The key word in your comment is…. almost…
Local Lansing news certainly seems to be giving MSU credit for Coleman
I believe Yale has also had a player drafted.

Counting teams that will be in the SEC and BIG This year: Big 33. SEC 31
Still, we may end up regretting the rape of the Pac 10. And not just in football. Saw where one talented woman soccer player opted to go pro rather than play in the newly amalgamated ACC/Pac 12 (where the highest-level soccer is now played) because she wasn't interested in the wear and tear. Gotta be some other kids privately making such decisions.
Did she go to the NWSL? Because the U.S. pro leagues also go coast to coast...
But no doubt a pro league will take better care of you than college including when it comes to travel schedule.
Stanford player who thought it would make actually doing school impossible.
(Money) Football should make its own conferences. Oregon swim team at Rutgers? WTF are we doing?

Look at how well Ohio St recruiting is paying off !!!
Sadly they had about 3 to 4 incredibly high draft picks return to OSU. I'd rather have them bragging about their draft results then their team come November ...
Regardless, them being behind Illinois after round 3 is still very funny.
Respectfully, common sense suggests that if they were really high draft picks, they'd take the $ and run. NIL money (even at a high-flow place like OSU) can't compete with really high draft pick money. (You can make a case for a couple of guys wanting to improve their draft position.)
Want to have some fun? Look at all the OSU love in these "too early" 2024 drafts from last year:

It's already started for 2025 if you look around.
I still expect OSU to get top three classes indefinitely. I'd love to know how that works (aside from the obvious $ answer).
One could argue that the team in Columbus “does less with more”… and that USC might not be too far behind them.
Draft picks so far.....
Teams that played in the 2023 National Championship
Michigan: 7
Washington: 7
Offseason champion
Ohio State: 2
The two other CFP teams - Bama with six (6) and Texas with five (5).
That’s 25 drafted players from those four teams - so far.
Seeing all these badasses drafted so far…makes me appreciate last year a little bit more. Team full of great football players who beat this shit out people.
To see the day that Rutgers has more than Nebraska!
More UConn players have been drafted than MSU players.
I recently read that Sparty's remarkable draft streak (i.e., at least one player getting picked) had stretched for eighty years or so up until -- I think -- 2021.
Gotta also hand it to Washington, for excellent talent evaluation and development. Love it how two northern schools (us and them) are leading in picks yet apparently being at bid disadvantage being in cold weather where many dont want to play.
I digress... I think I the Big Ten is slowly gonna take back football dominance, while the SEC is slowly taking basketball dominance from the BIG.
Just visited RCMB for the first time in months, and see that they generated HUNDREDS of pages of comment about the draft, almost all of it deriding Michigan, without placing a single player from their own school in the league? Rich lives those people lead! Rich lives! That's a fascinating corner of hell they assign themselves to. . .
