Pryor Checks In
Seven freshmen made their first appearance
on campus as Ohio State Buckeyes on Saturday when they underwent computer-aided
motion assessment tests in the Biomechanics lab on Saturday. Each player passed the tests without
incident, but the data will continue to be analyzed by a team of doctors and
scientists to determine any weak points on their body that may be susceptible
to injury. As always, all eyes were on the phenomenal freshman Terrelle Pryor.
According to the Columbus Dispatch, Pryor was a “physical specimen.”

Basketball
Though players are off-limits to
the media until summer practices start, Roy Hall, Pryor’s quarterback coach in
high school estimated that he has gained 15 pounds of muscle since his
basketball season ended last March. Ray
Reitz, Pryor’s coach at Jeannette
High School also said,
“This is probably the strongest he has ever been. He’s been busting his butt in
the weight room, running with a parachute. This kid has always worked hard, but
he’s pushed it a little further now.”
