Alot of Buckeye fans hate him now, I'd actually expect more backlash. But with his size, speed, strength, athletism, I'd take the risk reward with a 5th round pick

Oh contraire... I don't think Pryor is a good QB, and he's an asshole, so no thanks.

Merge with Tressel thread like you did my BOB KNIGHT post?
I didn't merge anything, Im not a MOD. But if thats what they wanna do thats fine by me.
Anyway, would you take a flyer on him with a 4th, 5th round pick maybe try converting him to receiver?

This Buckeye fan thinks it was time for Pryor to move on. He saw the writing on the wall anyway- odds on the NCAA was going to increase the suspension to a full year.
You didn't see the quarterback coach in the press blurb? The guy thinks he can make it in the NFL as a qb. Forgot which ESPN talent scout said it, but Pryor has no shot at qb in the NFL. At least not now. His release is slower than molasses, and he's not all that accurate. Yup, WR is his niche in the pros.
And hell no I don't want this kid anywhere near the Browns. Immature goober with entitlement issues. And there's a legion of OSU fans in Cleveland that are going to hold it against Pryor for getting Tressell canned, he'd be about a 1\2 step more popular than LeBron.

Isn't there still a Supplemental Draft?
Setting aside the fact that we got one of our best playeres ever in the supplemental draft, i don't really understand why the NFL does it.

The Supplemental draft is [to be determined] in the new labor contract, if it ever happens. It will be interesting how many rounds teams will pass on him before they take the aforementioned flyer. Certainly not a first, and probably not a second. When a team takes a player in the supplemental draft they forfeit the pick in the April draft that they took the player in.

There is going to be a sup draft regardless of whether or not there is a new CBA, the NFL has already pointed it out. I think it is going to happen either June 21st or some time in July. I don't like the guy, having said that this could be the thing that makes him straighten his shit out and I would spend a 5th or 6th rounder to grab him and convert him to a different position other than QB.

Jesus apparently this guy got paid between $20,000 - $40,000 just to sign autographs last year.

Big deal he sold memorabilia or accepted loner cars or whatever else, he's not the first athlete to do that. Yes he's immature, that doesn't make him a bad person. He does't have a felony record like our 2nd round pick this year, he didn't kill anybody like Dante Stallworth did. He's a kid, he deserves a chance to right his path. He didn't get Tressel fired, Tressel got Tressel fired. How could you not wanna give one of the most talented athlete's in college football a shot, and only risk a 5th round pick? Teams have risked alot more for alot less

I preface my remarks by again reminding all y'all that I am an Akron U Alumni....and I will say this: he would probably be better at QB than Charlie Frye. That ship sailed long ago.
Now that Pryor is bound to turn pro, the only discussion relevent to him is: What kind of a Pro QB would he make?
To me, he has about the same skill set as Cameron Newton, who went first overall in the draft.
I believe that was a reach for him personally. Both he and Pryor to me are probably going to show to be 3rd 4th round talent. They will be able to run a pro offense...for a while. They both have a lot in common with Vince Young. Yes, it is a stereotype because they are all three tall, rangy, and black.
It wouldn't surprise me to see Pryor do just as well as Newton, not that I think that either will blow the socks off the NFL. As for the Browns, the only question is whether or not Pryor could run a WCO type system. I guess if Donovan McNabb could do it successfully, why not Pryor (or any of the others I mentioned)

Colt McCoy's wife Rachel talking about Colt's teammates at Texas accepting gifts
People in Texas are just being friendly and they don't mean anything by it at all. They don't realize most of the time it is a violation. Texas is very clear with their players ... You cannot expect 19- to 20-year-old men to not accept free stuff while they're in college ... There's no way that college kids can really, honestly say no to all this stuff ... It's hard for a lot of these guys to even know ... I saw so many of his teammates who maybe didn't have some of that self-control to be able to say no to somebody. It's hard because you've got adults who you respect who you think will know what's right and what's wrong ...
Is Texas being investigated now, or are they just targeting OSU? If his wife has seen this, then surely Mack Brown has to be aware of it.

Well, the point of being a professional is that you are PAID to play, so the "entitlement issues" are irrelevent.
I disagree that he has no shot at QB in the NFL. Like I said, his skill set is not so different from the Newton's and the Vince Youngs. I also believe his accuracy was just fine for a college player. Whether it translates to the pros only remains to be seen. Colt McCoy was the completion percentage leader of the NCAA for two years, yet lots of people are still concerned about his "accuracy" as a pro QB.
I do agree though that Cleveland is not the best place for him. Cincinnati shouldn't be either....but oddly, they could use a QB perhaps like Pryor. Let him go to the Bengals. But I do think for his sake, going out of Ohio would be best for him. Maybe the Raiders can take him. He can do no worse than Jamarcus Russell.
-
Here is the bottom line: ALL these big time programs probably cheat as much or more than OSU did in terms of giving cash, cars to their players.
That 180K cash payment that was proposed to be paid to Cam Newton's family was simply the going market rate for an SEC QB prospect.

You need to remember the only way to become a Suckeye is to have been a Buckeye and then go play for the Steelers.
Otherwise dont be a Charlie FrenchCry fan.

Isn't it funny how nobody ever went after Pete Carroll? They didn't say Jack Shit about his follies.
Pete Carroll Caught Lying About NCAA Violations, Hurting Trogans' "Appeal"
Former USC football coach Pete Carroll shows his game face in denouncing the NCAA's penalties against the school, contending they are too harsh because he and other administrators never knew that star athletes such as Reggie Bush had violated the rules.
But Carroll has been shy about mentioning that the NCAA found his quiet hiring of an extra coach, a big name from the NFL, was a major violation. The association also said that Carroll did not clear the hire with USC's compliance office, a finding that contradicts what he told The Times last year.
Now, as USC presses an appeal of the heavy sanctions the association imposed, Carroll's culpability could diminish the school's prospects of persuading the NCAA to ease the punishment, experts say.
"That's going to hurt USC on its appeal," said Michael Buckner, a Florida attorney and Trojan alumnus who specializes in sports law. "There are major rule violations found against not only his student athletes but against his coaching staff and a decision he made."

The question I believe is: Is it wrong? It may be against the NCAA regulations, but does that make it per se "wrong"?
Besides, more than likely if he doesn't go to the NFL this year he could end up playing in the UFL...which might actually be good for him as it should be a sort of "developmental" league.

I've done drugs, drank before I was 21, cheated on tests, stole, lied, whatever. I think I've grown up and consider myself a great person, I was immature. It happens to all of us, If I was in his situation I probably would've thought I could've got away with it to. He's had to pay a heavy price and will have to look back on that forever, there's no reason for you or me to crucify him for that.

Give me a xxxxing break miktoxic.
Sorry, I agree with Miktoxic.
