JT should tell TP to shut down his twitter account. Nothing good comes of making comments on social media sites, IMO. You guys see his tweet from yesterday I think it was?

:tibor:. I see you visited mgoblog and read the latest edition of its seeming never-ending crusade to tear TP down. Seriously, UM fans and PSU fans need to just let it go that TP decided to go to OSU.

OK, here's what I think. It looks like some serious sarcasm to me. Much ado about nothing. It doesn't look like frustration.

I love college football but some people put way too much emphasis on what comes out of the mouths (tweets) of 20ish year old kids.

I don't know. I have to wonder if TP is seriously having second thoughts about whether he chose the right sport. This most recent tweet on its own would be one thing, but taken with the previous ones about the basketball team, about Herbie, and his overall frustration with the relentless criticism ... I get the feeling Terrelle is banged up pretty bad, sore as hell, and perhaps feeling a bit underappreciated for all his hard work.

He needs thicker skin (and humility) as a QB, this piece makes a very positive statement about his attitude and twitter finger. Suck it up and go out there next year with a new attitude. Just like during game week, forget the last game and focus on the future.

Monday night, the Big Ten's football awards were announced, and Terrelle Pryor immediately expressed displeasure with the choices via cyber graffiti. The league's coaches picked Northwestern's Dan Persa and Wisconsin's Scott Tolzien as the top two quarterbacks, while the media chose Michigan's Denard Robinson and Persa. Both groups named Robinson the top offensive player. The Ohio State quarterback's response to the selections was to Tweet: "Damn I must be the worst QB/player. I might quit football."

Via Twitter, which people seem to use as the restroom walls of the 1970s to scribble their gripes, Pryor recently called former OSU quarterback Kirk Herbstreit "a fake Buckeye" after the ESPN analyst was mildly critical of Ohio State.

Terrelle, there's no whining in baseball, or in football. You're starting to sound like that dopey and chronically complaining boyfriend on Keeping Up With The Kardashians. You bang the drum constantly about being a leader, but the best quarterbacks are tough and unflappable, and they don't bellyache over petty matters. They also don?t throw into triple coverage.

Great players are great decisionmakers, and great team guys. These Twitter shots put your judgment into question and harm you, and your team. Next time, before you hit the Tweeter button, consider ... what would Archie do. If you're not sure, just ask him ? he's on campus. He won the Heisman twice, and the only thing he ever expressed was humility.

This. The dude did not seem like someone having a good time at the SCUM game. Definitely some concern there. I hope he has some good time off before the bowl to relax and chill a bit.

I think everyone here needs to take some sarcasm lessons...
