QB Terrelle Pryor (official thread)

[BB73]

JT also said today that Pryor will be #2.

That's jersey number 2, not a comment about where he'll be on the depth chart.

Me likey #2.

i'll have to dust off the old Doss jersey....not that there is any dust on it....I would never let an OSU jersey sit and collect dust.

I thought Boom is #2 on offense?

Indeed he is.

Proof positive that Pryor will redshirt!

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Boom has changed to #1.

Mike Doss wore #2 with pride and distinction for the Buckeyes. I hope that has good karma for Mr. Pryor.

I already customized a Jenkins jersey, I should get velcro nameplates so I can interchange Pryor/Jenkins LOL

[Born Buckeye]

Hopefully with some crazy luck - Pryor will wear #2 with pride like Doss, and for all four years too!

[Shivvy77]

Doss was one of my favorite players and I thought he was a hard hitter bit a class act. I hope this bodes well for TP.

Pryor's commitment a sad day for spread

Thu Mar 27, 10:45 AM ET


By Matt Hayes -

Say this much for young Terrelle Pryor: The high school phenom already has turned the college football world sideways.
And the impact is more significant than you think. On the surface, there are bragging rights and championship dreams. When Pryor, the nation's No. 1 quarterback recruit, finally chose Ohio State over Michigan last week, it was a huge boost for the Buckeyes' national title hopes and a kick in the groin to Rich Rodriguez's teardown project at Michigan.
Now come closer, everyone. See the big picture. When Pryor said playing at Ohio State would prepare him better for the NFL, the spread option offense -- the fad that has overtaken college football -- took a haymaker to the nose.
This isn't about coaching ability. Ohio State's Jim Tressel and Rodriguez are among the game's best offensive minds and could teach your yellow Lab to run an 8-yard drag route.
The point is this: The spread offense -- the scheme that is nothing more than the triple option from the shotgun and the scheme Rodriguez has used to change the face of the game -- doesn't prepare quarterbacks for the next level. When was the last time a triple option quarterback made it big in the NFL? Here's a hint: never.

I think JT said in the press conference that Pryor would get jersey #2. So do #2's start flying off the shelves soon?

Did you read any of the "prior" threads on this page?

See, this is why we so often disagree with journalists. Most of us think you see the big picture when you step back. Not a bad article; just sayin'.

[msj2487]

Anyone else think about the future with the number changes and such?

#1 Boom Herron
#2 Terrelle Pryor
#3 Brandon Saine

Now come closer to see the big picture (sorry had to throw that in their!), but imagine them all lined up back in the shotgun together... we have ourselves a 1,2,3 punch baby!!!

[Best Buckeye]

I care more about the color of the uniforms than I do about which number they wear.
