Terrelle Pryor Chooses Ohio State
The number 1 QB recruit in the nation from Jeannette, PA has chosen The Ohio State University. I am cautiously optimistic about this. Just because a guy was amazing in high school doesn’t mean he will be amazing on the next level. But for now, fans can dream of Ohio State being set at QB for the near future. That’s not to say that Pryor will be the starter this year over Todd Boeckman, but it seems to me that he should be given every opportunity to compete for the position. Boeckman had a nice season, but he isn’t anywhere near the top QB in the nation or probably even the Big Ten.
If they can replace him with a guy who has the potential to be the best QB in the nation, then they should go ahead and do it. I would at least expect Pryor to have some formations and situations where he gets to be a meaningful part of Ohio State’s offense this season.
Rodriguez and Tressell Meet Behind the Bleachers
Rich Rodriguez was recently named head coach at Michigan and they are the other team, reportedly in the top of the running for Terrelle Pryor. Pryor is the highly touted QB out of Jeanette Pennsylvania that has the nation in wait to see where he decides to go to college. As a result, both Michigan and Ohio State coaches were at Pryor’s high school basketball game this weekend in PA. At halftime the coaches of the nation’s fiercest college football rivals met behind the bleachers.
Judging by this picture, I think Tressell just told Rodriguez that the Buckeyes are going to beat their faces in next year. Rodriguez is laughing because he thinks Jim is kidding. He isn’t.
Meanwhile, Pryor has put off announcing where he is going to go to school in order to visit Penn State this weekend. This guy could have the entire Big Eleven Ten losing their mind before this thing is over.
