End Zone: OSU 12-01

Monday night, the Big Ten’s football awards were announced, and Terrelle Pryor immediately expressed displeasure with the choices via cyber graffiti. The league’s coaches picked Northwestern’s Dan Persa and Wisconsin’s Scott Tolzien as the top two quarterbacks, while the media chose Michigan’s Denard Robinson and Persa. Both groups named Robinson the top offensive player. The Ohio State quarterback’s response to the selections was to Tweet: “Damn I must be the worst QB/player. I might quit football.”
Via Twitter, which people seem to use as the restroom walls of the 1970s to scribble their gripes, Pryor recently called former OSU quarterback Kirk Herbstreit “a fake Buckeye” after the ESPN analyst was mildly critical of Ohio State.
Terrelle, there’s no whining in baseball, or in football. You’re starting to sound like that dopey and chronically complaining boyfriend on Keeping Up With The Kardashians. You bang the drum constantly about being a leader, but the best quarterbacks are tough and unflappable, and they don’t bellyache over petty matters. They also don’t throw into triple coverage.
Great players are great decisionmakers, and great team guys. These Twitter shots put your judgment into question and harm you, and your team. Next time, before you hit the Tweeter button, consider ... what would Archie do. If you’re not sure, just ask him — he’s on campus. He won the Heisman twice, and the only thing he ever expressed was humility.

I'm not sure when we are going to see it. I mean, he's going to be a senior next season. Where has the progression been? I sort of blame Tress, they are trying to make him John Elway when he is clearly another Cam Newton. Man I wish Malzahn was calling our plays...
charliehustle14;585222 wrote:I agree. No doubt he's a great player, but sometimes you have to wonder why he hasn't progressed as much as he probably should have. I think a lot of it has to do with what you're talking about, trying to make him into something he's not. Doing that just robs him of his freakish God given talents. IMO, he could be so much better than Cam Newton, but he doesn't play in a system that gets the most out of his athletic ability. I also think having a 2nd rate QB coach doesn't help, IMO. Daniels was a good one, but they really dropped the ball by giving the job to Siciliano.

Robinson I agree with, Newton I think will have a good shot, especially if he comes out this year before he plays another year and something in his game is exposed.Pick6;585381 wrote:he'll have a better chance of being an nfl qb than newton or robinson, thats for sure.
clickclickboom;585386 wrote:Well i guess he has made a lot of progress considering his freshman year he had no idea how to throw a football.. seriously he was terrible... i have a little respect for him now just don't think he will ever be a pro style QB he'll probably end up fighting for a spot to start somewhere like Minnesota or something. i could see them drafting him in the second round
