Buckeye89Fan;1270557; said:No but the Pistol formation will be used more and more since Beanie is back. That's a scary thing to think about, and VERY hard for D's to prepare for. You stack the middle against the Pistol, and Terrelle Pryor is saying "See ya!" around the edge. You keep it spread out and Beanie is bruising up the middle for a first down and big time yardage. I can't wait to see this offense at it's best!
It will take some adjusting with Wells back, but i agree with what you say. Defenses will no longer be able to ignore the running game and key on Pryor by spreading out. They will have to pick their poison.
I'm not sure how Pryor will develop, but based on how good he was playing on Sat and against USc, OSU could have a very dangerous offense. MAke no mistake, both Beanie and Pryor are once-in-a-decade talents and if they can get in a groove, OSU could have a very balanced O that averages 450ypg and 35ppg.
Also, anyone have any idea which number he would wear if he gave up the #2? Personally I kinda hope he keeps it, looks cool. Actually it would look badass if Thomas let him wear #7 instead...I guess 5 would be pretty cool though too.
