Buckeyes draft Pryor!!!


The Buckeyes signed a winner... Awesome! And maybe the best part of it (sorry Joel), but he picked the Buckeyes of "Gagigan" (Michigan). Way to go Pryor!!!

It will be great to have a young talent like Pryor learning the ropes this season and be ready to step in as needed (I've never been a big fan of Boeckman. But this kid is pretty talented.

Here are a few of his stats from this ESPN article:
"Pryor, the No. 4-rated player in the ESPN 150, has left a legacy:

• In football, he became the first Pennsylvania player to pass and rush for more than 4,000 yards.

• He helped the Jayhawks win back-to-back WPIAL football championships, advancing to the last two PIAA Class AA title games, triumphing this season.

• The football team went 30-2 over the last two seasons, including 16-0 this season.

Pryor, a rare 6-6, 230-pound physical specimen, will concentrate on football at Ohio State.

"Everyone says he's a can't-miss player," Jeannette coach Ray Reitz said. "Not too many 6-foot-6 athletes can run a sub 4.3 40[-yard dash]."


I almost can't wait until August!!! Go Bucks!
