By Farrell...Terrelle talks about hanging with Brewster in Orlando during his AAU event. Quotes also from Brewster about his friendship with Pryor. WIll narrow things in August and says OSU and WVU will make the cut.

Lots of juicy stuff in this update for OSU fans...

I wll absolutely go nuts and be completely stunned if Pryor isn't a Buckeye. You guys seem to be such a perfect match for him. Great football team, great basketball team, a shot at early PT at QB for football etc.....I think Pryor is just letting other teams think they have a shot, but ultimately (and sadly) I think he's a Buckeye. I'm already drooling at the prospects of a couple Pryor/Mallett matchups. Like The Game needed any more spicing up....:wink2:

ESPN Chat with Craig Haubert:
Another Scout Inc. fellow puts the Buckeyes in the lead for Pryor ....
Ben (Columbus): Is Terrelle Pryor favoring the Buckeyes right now? When do you expect him to commit?

Craig Haubert: He is a hot commodity -- but with several teams in the race it sure looks like it is OSU race to lose. When? not to sure would not be surprised though if this goes on into the fall.

Terrelle Pryor

Terrelle Pryor's status as a dual-threat on the basketball courts and football fields will bring him plenty of recruiting attention.
Jim Judkis/RISE
As the nation's top football recruit and an elite basketball player, Terrelle Pryor says he's more than ready for what promises to be a highly scrutinized senior year. And it's hard to argue with the two-sport superstar at Jeannette (Pa.) considering how maturely he handled all the fanatical local attention sent his way last year.

Take, for instance, the basketball game between Jeannette and Salem (Greensburg, Pa.) last December, when officials had to start turning fans away because the Salem gym was filled to capacity.

"My junior year helped me grow in terms of dealing with all the pressure," says Pryor. "I've seen everything already in high school."

Pryor should receive even more attention this year, especially on the national level. He is the country's best two-sport high school star since current MLB All-Star Joe Mauer, the USA Today National Player of the Year in both football and baseball as a senior at Cretin-Derham Hall (St. Paul, Minn.) in 2000-01.

A 6-foot-6, 220-pound quarterback, Pryor is rated the nation's No. 1 overall football recruit in the Class of 2008 by RISE. And as a small forward in basketball, Pryor is the nation's No. 27 recruit in his class.

But unlike Mauer, who gave up football and signed with the Minnesota Twins after they selected him with the No. 1 pick in the 2001 MLB Draft, Pryor wants to play both of his sports after high school. A plethora of colleges have offered him the chance, including Ohio State, Penn State and USC. "I think it will be tough to do, but if anyone can do it, it's Terrelle," says Jeannette head football coach Ray Reitz. As a junior on the gridiron, Pryor passed for 1,720 yards and 15 touchdowns and ran for 1,709 yards and 27 scores to help lead Jeannette to the Class AA WPIAL title and state runner-up finish. And on the hardwood, he averaged 20.8 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists, three steals and three blocks per game.

While the expectations and accolades are coming on faster than Reggie Bush in the open field, Pryor refuses to change. "Talk is cheap and everything is shown by your actions on the field," says Pryor. "That's why I don't let the hype get to my head."

It just so happens the hype is justified -- Pryor is for real. And soon that hype will be going national.

[quote='BusNative;89436;5]Just the fall?? I hope so, but I'm not holding my breath.[/quote]

I actually agree with an ESPN analyst for once (shocked gasp)...I see Terrelle getting tired of the process, especially with it getting as heated as it is. Terrelle doesn't really seem to love all the attention and I wouldn't be shocked at all if he decides before December.

although i do recall on an interview done with Terrelle that he said it was going to be a signing day decision, but who knows, anything can happen in recruiting, i just hope that he picks OSU because he is the most intriguing prospect i've ever followed in recruiting. So much talent in football and basketball its scary.
