Rich Rodriguez records 1st loss to Ohio State

Hmmm....won't go play for a coach who has an offensive philosophy that fits Pryor's talents perfectly.
Sounds like Pryor doesn't think Richie won't be there long.

 

It's not like the offense coach sweatervest has won't fit him. Pryor seems to me like a souped-up Troy Smith.

 

I wouldn't count this as a done deal yet.

Look at the named sources -- an Ohio State recruit who tried to get Pryor to go there and second-hand heresay from two local coaches? What's next? Start calling classmates at Jeannette and see if any of them claims to know something?

I'm guessing White has a decent source, too, but just can't name the person. That or he's afraid to get his ass kicked on this one so he figured he better have something in today's paper.

Though I have to admit, I will be happy if the kid goes somewhere other than Michigan after the crap Rodriguez pulled in part to recruit Pryor (calling him before he even announced he was leaving West Virginia for Michigan).

 

I'm hoping he picks Penn State, but that seems a longshot at best.

 

I'm sure he'd be a perfect fit for the offense-minded genius that is Joe Paterno.

 

Yeah, but it's a much shorter drive to Happy Valley.

 

Bullshit. There's no such thing as a shorter drive to Happy Valley -- from anywhere.

 

It's only 15 minutes from Tahoe.

 

No. It's the only place in North America that isn't.

 

There are a LOT of rumors going around that Pryor was bought by the Buckeyes. He was heading to UM and then just changed on a dime against the wishes of his high school coach and Charlie Batch, who is his recent "mentor".

 

Until this kid signs his LOI, who...the...hell...cares. Honestly. Why do we have to have to waste time reading rumors and secondhand reports about where some kid might go to college? F'ing ridiculous, and if that's what this business is going to turn into, I want no part of it.

 

Of the top 10 players rated by Rivals in 2002, five panned out, five were busts (marcus vick!)

Sorry if I don't get too excited about what people think about high school football players
