Pryor Watch: As The World Turns

So RichRod's weekend of custody is over and the fallout is looking rosy for Michigan folks. Terrelle Pryor, the most talked about recruit in years, took an official visit to Michigan this weekend and said that he "liked it." Well that shouldn't come as a surprise. Who wouldn't have fun be showed around Michigan being told how great he is and having every bystander oogling at him? Sure, it's a little weird that he has a middle aged, former journeyman/rockybalboalikequarterback showing him around and helping him make his decisions, but we'd trust Charlie Batch...as long as Chris Hansen has his watchful eye in the sky. Charlie is a guy, he definitely likes sorority girls as much as Terrelle does.

So Terrelle enjoyed his visit and things seems pretty good (and they probably are), but don't get comfortable yet Wolverine fans because his high school head coach Ray Reitz says that plans are in the works for a trip to Oregon and possibly LSU. And Reitz wasn't afraid to throw the Buckeyes in there either. The Ohio State University seems to still be a contender for Pryor and the guys over at mgoblog have notice. If their connection between Ted Sarniak, Pryor, and Ohio State is true then there is good reason for people to be nervous that Pryor could be in Columbus next season. One backup quarterback already left and Jim Tressel has made it known he wants to incorporate dual threat quarterbacks into his offense, so it's not unconceivable that he could head across the border to Ohio State.

Now fans of Michigan, LSU, Ohio State, Oregon, and Penn State (ah you got Daryll Clark you're fine for a few years) play the waiting game to see what Terrelle's next move is.
