By CardiacHill Updated

No, this isn't an NFL site. But former Pitt wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald made his prediction on when the NFL lockout will end and why. He also spoke about a few other things including five-star recruit Rushel Shell.

Fitzgerald also mentioned he had the ear of super recruit for 2012, Rushel Shell, earlier this season:

"Hopefully, we can get the next great running back from (Hopewell) to come over this way, and we can be back to where we need to be," he said.
