I ask this question not as a smart ass (rare), but in all seriousness. Which game was he going to get playing time in? I don't recall Bauserman coming in for Boeckman at all. I can't remember any playing time when he would have been in there.

1. Probably the last drive or two of the Minnesota game, after we scored a TD early in the fourth quarter to go up 30-7.
2. Definitely the second half of the Kent State game, since we were up 35-0 at half.
3. Possibly the last drive or two of the Penn State game after we were up 34-10 in the latter part of the fourth quarter.

Those three games are in addition to the three games he did play in...

Art is the only other name that crossed my mind but with todays day and age with technology and recruiting I felt it was a no brainer to go with Pryor on that one.

I agree about the comeptition for the most part but if he feels the writing is on the wall (for whatever reason) then I can understand his decision.

I am VERY happy to see that either way he seems to be taking care of himself academically.

how would you guys feel about this scenario? I'd like to preface it with the fact the nearly everyone i have told it does not think it would be as sweet as i do.

what if he transfers to michigan? i know it's almost certainly not going to happen but it seems like it might be a good fit. i guess it's not even quit as good of a fit as it would have been when pryor first chose ohio state but i still think it could play out with some great scenarios and would reinforce the awesomeness of the rivalry.

imagine it; hotly contested recruit chooses ohio state, michigan player transfers to ohio state due scUM's new coach, ohio state backup quarterback transfers to michigan because of the recruit where his talents will be more utilized and plays against former team. it's like the script of a movie.

The somewhat substantiated rumors say he will go to Georgia Southern, a non D1A school. His HS coach is there now, and he'll play next year. I would think he would try to transfer back to D1A for 2009, he would have two years of eligibility. UM did pop into my mind. He would be perfect for DickRod's system, if he were a worse passer. But I think he stays in the south.

Too bad. Until Pryor signed I was really looking forward to Henton making a name for himself the way Troy Smith did. If Pryor doesn't pan out for one reason or another, I'm really gonna regret losing Henton. Maybe a fresh start is what you need. Georgia Southern, or wherever you go, is getting one helluva QB and an instant upgrade to their offense. Good luck kid.
