Terrelle Pryor

Terrelle Pryor is a college football quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes.

After high school, Pryor had initially announced that Michigan was his possible destination after Rich Rodriguez was hired as the Wolverines' head coach. However, Pryor announced on March 19, 2008, that he would attend The Ohio State University for the 2008 season.

Pryor and the Buckeyes won the 2010 Rose Bowl against the Oregon Ducks with a wide-open offense, a reversal of their playing strategy during the final 5 games of the regular season. Pryor was threw 37 times connecting on 23 of them for 266 yards. http://www.brutusreport.com/Articles/Latest/LatestArticlesDetail/tabid/701/smid/1405/ArticleID/1017/Default.aspx
