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

Lots of good leadership on this team and that coiunts for a lot in tough spots. TP has become a leader of this team. Not just some super star player. Leadership is another intangible on our side. We will find a way to win tonight! It may be ugly, but we'll find a way! :oh:

Terrelle Pryor is vastly overrated
http://insider.espn.go.com/ncf/insider/columns/story?columnist=joyner_kc&id=5680547

In looking over the Heisman candidacy of Ohio State Buckeyes quarterback Terrelle Pryor, I cannot help but think back to when Andre Dawson won the 1987 National League MVP award.


Dawson certainly had a good season in some respects. He belted 49 home runs and batted in 137 runs, both of which were league-leading totals. The majority of the voters figured power numbers of that caliber were enough to vault Dawson to the top of their ballot, but Bill James had a different viewpoint in his 1987 Baseball Abstract. He figured those statistics were the numerical equivalent of empty calories.

:shake:

Overrated? That's a crappy and unnecessary debate and of course leave it to ESPN to have it. Ask every defense TP's faced if he's overrated; ask someone with at least a little experience rather than some fat a hole that spends his Saturdays on a couch. ESPN is crap.

So why did he win the MVP award? I know what some people will say. It wasn't Dawson's statistics, it was his leadership and throwing arm. People will say that, but you know it isn't. You don't give an MVP for 'leadership' on a last-place team.

Ah, yes.... last place team.... ummm.... right.

This is the Randle-El argument at Indiana.... not Ohio State.

They also had this debate on ESPN First Take yesterday. I didn't watch it, but I can imagine Skip being arrogant as usual.:roll1:

Those who say he is over rated are the same ones who over-hyped the poor kid when he was in HS. Plus they never have to face him coming around the corner with that stride and straight arm! OH-


I O!

TP makes a statement tonight folks. Mark it down, write it down, whatever you wanna do.

Its the same personality disorder that attracts these types to do that style of journalism..... talk them up then bring them down to make oneself feel intellectual.... If we knew what websites he hits late at night we would all be disturbed.....fucking weirdo

Pryor's message: Quarterback Terrelle Pryor had been made available for midweek interviews on three Wednesdays this season, but this Wednesday wasn't one of them. Pryor did interact with several fans on his Twitter account, @TPeezy2, this week, referencing several critical messages from what Pryor referred to as "haters."

"Thanks for all your words but I don't need any sympathy. The Bucks are back. Haters I love you," Pryor wrote.

Previously, just hours after the Wisconsin loss, Pryor also asked the haters if they ever held a football, then wrote "Love you true buck fans. I promise I won't let you down again. Mark that down too!!" This week he referenced messages on his haircut, his spiritual life and someone who is supposedly naming their baby after Pryor.

Quarterbacks coach Nick Siciliano said he doesn't check Pryor's Twitter account, then, wondering why it was brought up, asked what Pryor wrote recently.

"He's really tried to embrace everybody and do right on everything," Siciliano said. "I'm very proud of him for that, because it's been part of the growth process and he's handled things very well. For a guy who has been in his position, he could have handled everything the wrong way. I'm not saying he's always handled things correctly, but he's handled things very well. I'm very proud of the fact his maturity is rising."
