"I'll put it like this: You put me in any of their offenses — any of them — and I'd dominate," Pryor said, when asked about the attention afforded the likes of Newton, Robinson and Persa. "I'd dominate the nation. What those guys do, that's what they're supposed to do in their offense.
"They carry the ball 30 times a game. I carry the ball maybe five times. There are times I didn't even run the ball in a game. You put me in any of their offenses, where I can run the ball and have a choice to throw, I would dominate college football."
This is what Terrelle Pryor had to say about the other top quarterbacks in college football. Nice, huh? He sounds like a bitter, shallow player. What's funny is he later went on to say that all he cares about is winning and that if he put up huge numbers but lost he would be miserable. What a joke! If that were true, why would he feel the need to rip on other players and the great years they had? Wouldn't he just be happy for them if he were truly comfortable with where he is as a player? The truth is that Pryor needs to be showered with praise -- like LeBron. You can tell this by his comments over the years and by his body language when his team does well while he isn't contributing. The minute that fellow Buckeye Kirk Herbstreit commented that he wanted to see more out of Pryor, he lashed out like a spoiled brat. He's been surrounded by unbelievable talent from the minute he stepped on campus and has never faced true adversity. The fact that Pryor feels that it's beneath him to complement other players or show an admiration for them tells you everything you need to know.
