Terrelle Pryor Makes Good Choice

Sorry about the lack of posting last week. I was in Wisconsin and then I fell ill during my time there.

Feeling ill might characterize the state of Ohio State fans. But consider the good news Buckeye fans. Things can only become better.

Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor made a good decision last week and resigned from the program. Pryor was set to miss the first five games of his senior season anyway due to the famous tattoo incident. With more controversy swirling regarding his association with car dealers, Pryor declared an ‘uncle.” He decided to explore opportunities at the next level.

How that will play out is anybody’s guess, but it’s a good thing for Ohio State. The Buckeyes are like a player with a badly injured knee. Instead of trying to continue to play with many distractions, Ohio State is the now the beneficiary of a surgery. First coach Jim Tressel resigned and now Pryor. The healing may take a long time, but the necessary steps have occurred.

By the way Buckeye fans, there is still an outstanding quarterback available for one season. Russell Wilson could make fans forgot about strife off the field with his play on the field.

The problem is that Wilson will probably have many suitors. I can guarantee that if he ended up at Wisconsin, Ohio State and other Big Ten Conference schools won’t enjoy it.
