I don't think anyone is implying Pryor will ever turn out like Clarett. But if their personalities and lack of discipline are the same, caution is warranted. That's all I'm saying. We have other QB's. It really annoys me that people point to Maurice Clarett as a blemish on the reputation of Ohio State. I'm not sure any other program stopped recruting him because he was going to be such a devisive influence. OSU handled the problem as it should have been handled. Hell, at Arkansas, they would have bought guns for him if he could deliver a win against 'Bama. IT is fair to question whether two people with similar patterns of behavior will have the same outcome.

At least not yet. No fair comparing Terrelle Pryor to Maurice Clarett.

At least not yet.

I have to show love when I can! @Arkansas Buckeye - I worry about the same thing. We just have to look a few years ago at a certain highly touted recruit who shall not be named to see where that got us. @SD & WF – Us Buckeye bloggers are one big family.

I don't know him and maybe he's just a young kid learning how to handle the media pressure. Or maybe he's a bundle of ego just waiting to explode in some coach's face. This smells a lot like what happened to Houston Nutt here at Arkansas when the fan base (and AD) just HAD to have the nationally ranked local quarterback Mitch Mustain. It was total disaster reusulting in the firing of the Nutt (w/ 3.5 mill thank you), and resignation of AD Broyles (long overdue) - ended up being a huge scandal. And now they are left pumping a recruting machine that has run dry. Does anyone else think Terrel Pryor seems to have a full set of emotional luggage that he is packing on his way to college?

Gracias for the love, we've reciprocated with a blogroll shout out, which while hardly carrying the same weight as a link from y'all, is most assuredly the least we can do. I think if we do our best once finals sort themselves out to make our silly, satirical blog even half of what y'alls is, we'll be doing more than alright.
