How many dogs has Tressel killed?
Clearly, our young student-athlete won't be majoring in English or communications.
Personally, I long for the days of the 1940's and 1950's, when college kids that played sports for their respective colleges and universities were actually college kids - kids that should be in college. But, commercialism has changed college athletics - at least football and basketball - into the farm system of their professional sports.
Pryor's not the exception, but the rule. I have no idea what he scored on his SAT, but I've heard him speak and I have significant doubt it was anything near the OSU student body average. There are plenty of smart kids who are athletic and if one watched the Navy/OSU game yesterday, you saw proof of that very theory. I would wager that there isn't a single skill-player on OSU's roster, certainly not in the starting line-up, that would be academically eligible for the Naval Academy. Conversly, I'd wager that there aren't many, if any Naval academy players that were recruited by OSU. And yet, people would have us believe that OSU fields student-athletes in the football program - ridiculous.
end of rant.
It sounded like our boys at USNA gave these guys all they could handle yesterday.

As much as I love Ohio State Pryor is anything but a class act. He looks and talks like a thug. Tressel thinks Maurice Clarett gave him trouble.
*******
I've always said Vick was THE most overrated player in the NFL. We've heard ad nauseum what a talent he is, but I've repeatedly seen him do things in the passing game good quarterbacks simply don't do. He runs well, but that pretty much sums it up. Pryor clearly doesn't have any concept of what it takes to be a great quarterback.
I think Mike Vick would tell this kid he is stupid.
Vick is a victim. Complete nonsense! Vick is lucky to be allowed back and I believe he knows it.
If this is OSU QB, then I bet they are in big trouble this year. I saw how Navy nearly beat them yesterday.
I'd be willing to bet that Pryor will not have that on his face by the next game. I'm sure Tressel will be hearing about it from the alumni and the administration this week.
Kudos to the Midshipmen for an inspiring performance. The Buckeyes better get their act together Saturday against USC.
