The web site says 10am to 3pm.

Did it really take 5 hours? I can't remember.

Anyone remember?

Anyone remember? Most drafts were done around 2:30 or so. It takes a good 4 1/2 hours and some drafts went almost five hours. You can't rush a good thing.

Tough USC loss, huh? Sorry about that.

Vince Young was awesome. I hope he, White, and Bush all turn pro next year. that would be great for FF. That's a game where no one lost, especially the fans. Hoping hometown HS QB Sanchez starts next year for SC.

My NY7 draft ended a little bit after 6pm (3pm PST). There was at least one still going for another 20-30 minutes. Most were done in 4½ hours.

Good drafts might take 5 hours but Texas disposed of the Trojan bunch in about 3.

V. Young just might become a Texan afterall.

The sports universe just might be in harmony.

How long did the auctions last?
