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

[quote=bukIpower;1121100; Having Saine, TP, and of course beanie in on the same play would cause havoc for another defense.

Need a good laugh. Mel Kiper said on ESPN yesterday that it would be a big mistake to use TP in the Tebow role next year, because any carry Pryor gets would be one taken away from Beanie. I'm no coach, but the legitimate threat of Pryor being able to get to the edge would have to be accounted for. I don't think you'll see 8-9 in the box to stop Beanie with TP at quarterback and our quality recievers out wide. The unique skills that Pryor adds with his legs potentially will open up more opportunities for the rest of our skilled players.

Thanks for the heads up on the link. Off field, (I know this has been discussed in one way or another on many threads throughout), Terrelle probably added very significantly to the success of the 'Brew Crew', (thank you very much, Terrelle), and will probably be a big impact while on campus and beyond for years to come in recruiting. It's just wonderful having him in S&G.

i dont think he makes a super impact this coming season. i anticipate him getting some snaps, and probably playing well when called upon, but make no mistake about it.. this is Todd Boeckman's team.

He'll be like Brandon Saine, a few TDs, some nice runs, a special play or two. We will all be eagerly waiting for the time when he breaks out - probably sooner than later IMO.

Put TB and TP in the backfield together and direct snap it to either one of them - that should keep the opposing defenses on their toes.

Sports Pick Up Downtrodden Town

JEANNETTE, Pa. ? Once known as glass city, when 70 percent of the world?s glass was made here, this town is probably better known now as the home to Terrelle Pryor, the No. 1 college football prospect, who signed a letter of intent on Wednesday to attend Ohio State.

Beyond that, though, this economically battered city of 10,000 is fairly unremarkable in southwestern Pennsylvania. Like many cities in the region, it has lost a third of its population, and Clay Avenue, its downtown, is a shadow of its former self.

?It?s just like any other normal industrial town built around one industry,? Mayor Michael Cafasso said. ?When the glass plants closed, people left to find work elsewhere.?

As a result, Pryor could be considered one athlete who transcended his community?s circumstances. But Jeannette?s social fabric and volunteer ethic never faded even when the jobs did. Many adults have put in time with the city?s youth sports programs at some point, and sports have long filled residents with pride.

That is particularly true this school year, as Pryor and the Jeannette Jayhawks won state titles in football and basketball.

?It?s been an amazing run,? said Gladys Cook, the mother of a Jeannette cheerleader. ?You don?t want it to end.?

Mods, could someone please post the details of Pryor recruiting like someone did for Barksdale? Here or the rumor mill. The recent revelation by grad in the real recruiting tidbids thread got me curious. Thanks.
