    News is out.....Terrelle Pryor is a Buckeye.

    Sad news for Michigan but no real surprise to anyone.

    The waiting is over and I am glad he has signed with Ohio State. He seems like a typical 18 year old, very gifted athlete, not terrible articulate, but seems sincere.

    We certainly have improved our strength at the QB slot. it worked well for Florida and maybe we can achieve the same benefit, using two QBs.

    The guy had an incredible HS Career being the not only the key player for his football team winning the State Championship, but also the Basketball team winning the State Championship as well.

    The last QB comming out of PA that was this ballyhooed is Ron Powlus. There have been lots of good/great PA qBs but Ron was the overall #1 recruit in the country just like Pryor.

    Does that mean he's a shoe-in for 2 Heisman trophies? What does Beano say about him? Hey, Gipper! Who says I don't have a sense of humor about your close personal friend, Ron? :lol:

    RP should have gone to Toledo. "Glassman" as the students called him would have fit right in.

    Do any of you Bucks know if he will try to play Basketball as well as football at Ohio State. He is supposedly a very legit D1 basketball talent.

    No BB is what I read.

    Michigan is now hoping that he has as much trouble deciding on a receiver as he did a college choice>> :wink:
