QB/WR Terrelle Pryor ('10 Rose, '11 Sugar MVP)

Anyone know when JT might comment on the signing of TP? I always look forward to what Tress says about the guys on signing day, but with TP signing late...? Just curious if anyone might know.

Someone's got to teach him it's "THE Ohio State University".

I knew Wade wasn't worried.

 

[stxbuck]

Heck yeah!!! Welcome to the family Terrelle!!!!!!!

Someone's got to teach him it's "THE Ohio State University".

I think he did that "University of... Ohio State" more to mess with people, give ESPN something to play on sports center when they are going to commercial

Welcome to the Buckeye Family Terrelle.....officially.

Anyone notice about the 17:10 mark that he caught himself saying that Oregon has been texting him a lot? He gave a "whoops" face like, "I shouldn't be saying this, they could bet in trouble"... :)

Yes I did notice that - his reaction was pretty funny! That kind of stuff makes me nervous, not just for Oregon, but for OSU too...texting is so easy and commonplace, and the kids love it, you gotta think it still happens to some extent...

Rivals added Terrelle to the 2008 basketball recruiting class as well. Not that it matters in real life - but it's definitely fun to see another 5-star basketball recruit for 2008 too.

 

[CONGERSBUCKEYE]

With TP in the fold does that make three US Army Game MVP's?

 

[alpo]

I knew Wade wasn't worried.

That knowledge helped pull me through, too. Thanks, 45.

Great news for Buckeye fans everywhere. I read where we moved up past USC in the recruiting year.
Welcome to our newest Buckeye, Terrelle

 

[Oh8ch]

Just for a bit of perspective (and not to attribute too much to the recruiting rankings).

This class now includes the #1 rated center and QB.
The #2 rated OT and MLB.
The #4 rated WR, TE, DT and K.
The #6 rated MLB, #7 OT and #10 RB.

And the other 9 kids in the class could make a case for the 4th or 5th best class in the Big Ten on their own.

Luginbill's discussion on ESPN...

great work. I watched and I can't believe those 2 clowns are on TV reporting. Luginbill's should hate his parents for never getting him DENTAL WORK when he was a KID.
