Because Small is in the doggy house, and (temporarily??) got his number taken away. I think he was sporting #82 today!

Who knows though, it all remains speculation, and hear-say untill its confirmed. Not to mention, players switch numbers all the time, Troy Smith is a good example of that.
Bottom Line: We will have to wait till August to see whats permanent.

I don't get why this matters. You think Terrelle is worried about getting his number closer to his high school number?

Small being demoted to #82 does not equate to Pryor wanting #4 though, unless you have some foundation for that comment. #1, 2 & 11 were the favorites before he signed.

You used a double contraction. Google should help learn ya where America failed you.
BTW, the eye roll is generally a negative emoticon.    are the opposite.

Nor has anyone adressed if n04 is being reserved for Small to re earn.
And where America has failed me Jwinslow comes thru. Ain't that not right?

Is there precedent for punishment by changing a number? I have never heard of such a thing.

Ohio State football: Ten thoughts on the jersey scrimmage
Posted by Doug Lesmerises April 12, 2008
DOUG LESMERISES
Plain Dealer Reporter
COLUMBUS - Thoughts and observations from Saturday's Ohio State jersey scrimmage, won by the offense 55-44 under a modified scoring system that dooms the defense if it doesn't force turnovers. And there wasn't a single turnover, just four touchdowns - two Todd Boeckman to Brian Hartline passes, a Brandon Saine run, and a crossing route caught by walk-on Ricky Crawford from Antonio Henton.
1. Todd Boeckman stands in the pocket and makes decisions like a quarterback who knows what he's doing. Backups Joe Bauserman and Antonio Henton were much quicker to leave the pocket, in part because the injuries that have decimated the offense line really showed up on the second and third teams. But if being a quarterback is about having control, Boeckman has that, especially compared to the other choices
"I was more poised and confident in my ability to get the ball to the receivers and put our offense in the right situations," said Boeckman, who finished, unofficially, 10 of 20 for 149 yards. "That year experience gives me so much confidence and it's such a lift to me to know I'm the guy out here to lead this team, maybe to great things."
Coach Jim Tressel said Boeckman played "pretty well" and "pretty fair" while he dubbed Henton and Bauserman "pretty average."
Lots of people have said good things about Bauserman, but the former minor league baseball pitcher does a little sidearm sling when he's pressured that looks like it belongs more on a mound.

i agree, and why is small in the "doghouse" anyway, specifically?
