With all the craziness surrounding the NFL's labor dispute this week, let's not overlook the fact that for 254 college juniors and seniors, a lifetime dream will come true this weekend during the three-day NFL Draft.
If draft experts are correct, Anthony Gaitor and Greg Ellingson will be two of those 254. The FIU stars are both expected to go Saturday, during Rounds 4 through 7.
I've been tasked with writing about the state schools not named UM, UF and FSU, so Friday and Saturday will be a busy time in these parts.
I'll have a live blog Friday beginning at 6 p.m. and Saturday at noon. You can join the conversation here or on Twitter @AdamHBeasley.
UM isn't a state school.

Yes I guess to Adam it is in the state of Miami. Because we own Miami and not FIU. Btw Buc,

I think Gaitor gets picked before Ellingson, Ellingson gets picked up in the 6-7 round.
