QB Terrelle Pryor (2010 Rose Bowl MVP)

[HotMic]

It happens all the time, at every school. JT was THERE. He WOULD NOT let a recruiting violation take place while he watched....in the same room.

From my understanding, as long as the former player is not actually recruiting the kid to that school...contact is allowed by the NCAA.

totally different. mcknight's claim was that bush called him on the phone and told him that there was nothing to worry about regarding NCAA violations.

Terrelle Pryor was invited (and accepted) to play in the Army All-American game in San Antonio.

McKnight signed a national letter of intent with USC on Wednesday and made comments during a news conference that seemed to suggest communications involving former Trojan Reggie Bush, who is now with the New Orleans Saints.

Former players are forbidden from contacting prospective recruits, their relatives or guardians.

Congrats to TP. Hopefully we see an Ohio State hat on his head (if he doesn't decide before the AAA game).

Give me some greenies and we can call it even.

I think all is well here and we should be excited to hear the updates. Can you imagine how it must feel to meet JT AND TM and have both OSU head coaches tell you how excited they would be to have you in S&G?

These are great days for Terrelle...

I just read over the NCAA bylaws (13.01.4 and the exception that covers this 13.1.2.2 (g)) on this topic, and as far as I can tell, Pryor and Smith did nothing wrong provided:
1. It was unavoidably incidental and not prearranged, and
2. they did not talk about the athletic program nor did Troy attempt to recruit.

Given that each of them were in a relatively small area, it would be easy for them to "accidentally" run into one another, so proving it was planned would be nearly impossible. Given that no one was with the two of them when they went off and talked, it is impossible to know what they talked about (unless one of them decides to discuss that).

As such, there is no obvious violation here.

Good detective work, sir.

I bet you were expecting Bullwinkle

Pryor and the Brew Crew did not ride in the buses with the rest of the kids. They got personal service from a special coach.



OMG ... does this make me paparazzi?

EDIT: I am standing against gate 30 at the shoe facing east with the aquatics bldg in bkrnd and not in the woods as it may appear. It is my lack of photo taking skill.

[Buckeyecty4]

How could not want to play for OSU.. you got people in the woods taking pics of you.. that is how much of a celebrity you are at OSU..

[B-town Buckeye]

gotta say...that's (more than) a little creepy.

(but kinda cool at the same time)
