Freshman QB, Terrelle Pryor, has some beef with ESPN analyst Mark May after some remarks following the loss to USC earlier this season. As a fan it's hilarious to see other programs not held to the same standards and punishment we have to endure. Double standard? What's the deal?

Pryor commenting about USC's loss to Oregon State:
“If we would lose that game, we would get stuff talked on us,” Pryor said, “but if USC loses, they don’t get stuff talked on them.”
I don't mind the bashing but if you're going to do it then you have to do it to all the other big programs who suffer just as worse losses. Florida losing to Mississippi State... come on, the argument of the SEC is great from top-to-bottom has run its course. USC losing to Stanford (that team with the crazy mascot), losing to Oregon State? If Ohio State would have lost to any of those teams we'd never hear the end of it...

Pryor continues on because ESPiN wants to declare the Buckeyes dead. I love this from Terrelle and he's starting to show as a great leader. The fire in him is something that lacks this team.

“The media, ESPN people, sit there and talk stuff on our team and say we’re dead,” Pryor said after a separate question. “We’ll find out this week coming up who’s dead. We’re out to show the world something, and we’re going to.”
Oh, and ESPiN also isn't very excited about the possible rematch of USC/Ohio State in the Rose Bowl (a lot still has to happen first) but the response is awesome.

“That’s over, we’re not going to dwell on that. Beanie didn’t play. It’s over with,” Pryor said, before adding, “If we played them again, I’m sure we’d give them a better game.”

ESPiN has double standards.

leadership..

I like Pryors comments, it is something that needed to be said. I also think it is funny that the true freshman has assumed the leader role on this team.
 
I don't understand how nobody gives Oklahoma the grief that we get? They were embarrassed in 2 straight BCS Title games and they got embarrassed in 2 other BCS games.
 
It's nice Pryor feels that way but I would rather he keep his mouth shut and show it on the field. I was once told by a sports writer that you can never win this type of thing because they (the writers) will always have the last word.
 
Welcome to Ohio State Terrelle. You are not a buckeye until you learn to hate Mark May.

He didn't actually bash a team, just the media so I'm cool with what he said. It's not going to be anybody's bulletin board material. I also see the team getting behind him as their leader very fast, and TP is comfortable speaking as the leader of this team.

The future is bright.

Sadly this is very true. The media can change mass opinions about any team they so choose if you allow them to.:mad:
 
Nice to see that Pryor's been reading our posts and wanted to convey the sentiments of the posters on scarletbuckeye.com to ESPN
