Young showed the fastest 4.58 against USC when he destroyed them for the TITLE. The best college game won by a single player EVER. He's showed that SPEED in the NFL to. Who timed him the NCAA.:biggrin:

Has anyone seen Pryor play? My main thought about him, is can he run like Young in a game?

Yes VY has good, deceptive speed... but he's not a speeding bullet like Vick, especially not his first step.

Not live, but their running styles are similar.

Where is it stated that Vick runs a 4.25.... And who was holding the stop watch?

it has been stated various places about the 4.25, IIRC it was electronically timed. As for Young and Pryor they are "gliders" because of their long strides and neither is nearly as fast as Vick. If Pryor can get his motion/accuracy in order his potential is limitless.

The No. 1 player works out in a garage
July 10, 2007

As I parked on the street, I got a better view of the weight room where the Jeannette High School football team trains. It was indeed a two-car garage with four benches, about two racks of old free weights and what looked like a few dumbbells.

The garage is owned by Jeannette strength coach Roy Hall, one of the funniest guys I've run into in my years covering top prospects. Hall provides the space because Jeannette High School doesn't have a weight room. Hall also provides the discipline with a yard stick, something every kid in that garage fears with a passion. Call it yardstickaphobia. If someone's slacking off or goofing around ... whack!

I've seen Pryor play in person and trust me, he makes everybody else look like they are standing still. He is so much faster than everybody he plays against that he hardly ever has to run full steam.

I was at the game when he ran for a long TD run and a kid was standing at the goal line waiting for him. Everybody expected a collision with Terrelle tumbling into the end zone. Instead, Terrelle leaped over the kid without breaking stride. I kid you not. You could literally hear one collective gasp in the crowd.

PSU

T Pryor?s visit with Paterno didn?t go as well as PSU fans would have liked. Apparently Joe gave some rambling comparison between his Italian immigrant relatives and T Pryor?s African immigrant relatives. He was trying to say we are the same, but apparently it was so jumbled T Pryor and his coach walked away shaking their heads. Just a generation gap misunderstanding I guess.

This doesn?t exclude them but it doesn?t help them.

USC

T Pryor visited with Pete Carroll and he REALLY liked him. The biggest obstacle is the distance and his father. Pete Carroll promised him a shot at QB.

Alabama

T Pryor also really clicked with Nick Saban. I know they haven?t been mentioned before, but they are now in the picture. Also promised him a shot at QB.

Pitt

Just as T Pryor prematurely commited to Pitt, he has apparently prematurely dropped them from the list. I?ve heard they are still in the running thanks to DW and staff?s stepping up of the recruiting process. His father also still wants him to consider Pitt. Despite internet rumors, DW offered a shot at QB.

OSU

Still the leader by a LOT. They are still ?recruiting? him the way they know how.

A Pitt homer must have wrote that piece. Why the low blow towards OSU? Sounds like a jealous pitt fan to me. Does anyone know how credible he is?

That was posted on the scout free board, and there was a USC fan that said he didn't even think that Pryor had been to USC, so that definitely brings the legitimacy of this "article" into question.
