IUFB's #1 draft pick who is it?

[vesuvius13]

The year was 1938 and Corbett Davis was the selection at #1. It isn't that IUFB hasn't had very good players or very good teams - 1944 and 45 teams, 1968 Rose Bowl, 1987 & 1988 teams. IU just hasn't found a way for the good teams to continue, I hope the hire of coach Cignetti is a sign IU now understands the type of program they need to have for success.

I asked and answered this as a trivia question during the draft in a previous thread btw!

George T. was also the first AA ever drafted by the NFL, in 1949.
