Now that Durant has won ROY in the NBA, Huston Street in 2005 in MLB, and Vince last year in the NFL, can any other school match such a feat - especially in the span of 3 years? I know some people on this board have access to such information and the time and inclination to look it up. Anyone?

Regardless, congratulations are in order.

UNC, but not in a three year span.

Lawrence Taylor--NFL ROY and Defensive POY 1981

Walt Weiss--AL ROY 1988

Jordan, Carter, McAdoo--NBA ROYs
 
Auburn was close to an MVP trifecta with Barkley, Bo Jackson, and Frank Thomas. Bo never won a Football MVP though, or baseball.
 
Those are all great accomplishments but on the selfish side I would have rather have them at Texas for 4 full seasons. Imagine UT Basketball if we had no early departures recently!

FYI

Southern Cal had two more opportunities to do it 1972-1973 won football and baseball, not sure about basketball could not find anything for 1972 or 1973 seasons

1978 USC won football and baseball but could not find anything again on basketball

Miami it looks like pulled off the feat in 2001 with winning baseball and football and going in basketball as a #5 SEED
