Couldn't you say that about Texas too? or Auburn? or Tennessee? or Colorado?

I think saying he is more suited for WVU is kind of a slight on TP's passing ability, which is what I don't understand.

WVU is much more a run first spread than anything, not the balanced spread that Troy ran.
Here is a question: can you name two starting WVU WR's from last year?

Reynaud (who is one of the more explosive players in the Big East) and Myles (who was their bigger/taller type).

Of course WVU is my second favorite NCAA team :biggrin:.

I've sort of been wondering, if he ends up at OSU, when would he end up being the starter? Assuming Boeckman starts this year, and next, Pryor would be a true sophomore when when he has his first shot at taking over the starting job. However, Henton will be a (RS) Jr, and Schoenhoft a (RS) Sr. It seems like it would be hard for a true sophomore to win that QB competition. (...and then if Henton gets the starting job in the 09 season, I don't see Pryor taking it away the following season from Henton.)

I know, my assumptions and projects may be off (and I expect them to be since I know Pryor is going to play QB at OSU) but when/how is he going to get the chance to?

Under your theory, wouldn't Pryor redshirt since you've already got Boeckman starting in 2008?

Well I was wondering whether we would use him here or there as a WR or something of that nature. Like I said, what do I know? I was just curious when/how he's going to be used. (I realize that we are recruiting him as a QB, and that if he comes he here will play QB, but I was just wondering if while he's sitting in line he might play something else for a play or two.)

You don't use an elite11 caliber QB as a WR!!!! That's as foolish as using one to handle punt returns as a freshman....then expecting him to win the Heisman as a Senior.

Isn't that exactly what we did with former Elite 11 QB Troy Smith early in his career? Not that I'm suggesting we do that with TP.

Terrelle is in SI this week as one of 5 HS players to watch this season.

TERRELLE PRYOR
Jeannette (Pennsylvania) QB, 6- 6, 220, Sr.
No player will be watched with more anticipation than Pryor (top right), the No. 1 prospect in the nation. Deemed by scouts to be the next Vince Young, he threw for 1,732 yards and 15 touchdowns, ran for 1,676 yards and 28 scores -- and caught a TD pass -- in 2006....
