Top high school football recruit quarterback Terrelle Pryor made his decision Wednesday morning to play for the Ohio State Buckeyes after a suspenseful decision weighed on his mind between committing to Michigan or Ohio State. The 6'6" 225 pound 2- sport star rated as the #1 high school recruit by rivals.com decided that Ohio State coach Jim Tressel was the coach that ultimately was whom he wanted to play for.

The 18-year old Terrelle Pryor is an A+ level athlete with 4.35 40-yard dash speed and a scud missile r
ight arm that has drawn comparisons to former heisman trophy winner Vince Young. Despite leading his high school team to a state championship in basketball, the Pennsylvania’s bread and butter was always football where he amassed an eye-popping 4,000 yards rushing and passing.
While accomplished veteran Todd Boeckman will remain the starter for Ohio State, don’t be surprised to see Pryor come in a runner\passer role much like Florida Gators Tim Tebow in his freshman year.
