Cbus weighs in on Michigan's Recruitment of Pryor

Bob Hunter of the Columbus Dispatch talks about how important it is for Michigan to get Terrelle Pryor.

I love articles like this one. A Columbus columnist writes about how the nations #1 recruit is important to OSU's top rival. That is like Hilary writing why it's important for Obama to become President.


Bob, let me give you a couple of pointers regarding your article. Just in case you would like to write about the Wolverines in any future editions:

1. Please replace that picture. The white around your head makes you look like your dead.


2. Yes, your right Michigan does need a QB and the #1 recruit in the nation would make a lot of sense and be a fit for Coach Rod's offense. That is a great scoop, great work on the research!


3. Let's take a look at a few of your quotes from this article:
   
   

• Without Pryor, Ohio State has most of the players back from a team that played in its second consecutive national title game and beat Michigan for the sixth time in seven years. With Pryor, it has all that and the nation's top recruit, and the Big Ten starts to look like the Big One and Little 10. Wow, great quote. I must of missed the last two National Championship games, how did OSU do? Oh you mean there is life and games outside the Michigan - OSU game? The Big One this year lost to Illinois. Are they the Big One or part of the little 10?
  


• But there are implications in this Ohio State-Michigan affair that go beyond winning and losing. Without Pryor, Rodriguez's job of competing with OSU is going to be that much harder. Without Pryor, it might take Michigan three or four years to catch up, if it does at all. - More great work here! I'm not sure what is in the water in CBus but they have very bad memories. Maybe the folks around there might want to start thinking about why the SEC embarrasses the Big Ten/OSU every year and start game planning for the trip to LA next year to face USC. They also seem to forget the Cooper years. I don't think it's a big secret that Michigan will have a very young team (next year) that we be learning a new system. They won't beat a good OSU team next year in Columbus but to say they will never catch up, is crazy or just stupid. Look at history Bob, these games go in streaks. There is that research thing again. My bad.
  


• If Tressel also has the Wolverines' number on this one, Michigan fans might feed Rodriguez into a paper shredder themselves. This is actually funny, but I think we will give Coach Rod a year or two before we start throwing him under the bus. Quick Question - Would OSU preferred to play West Virgina in a BCS game this year? That is what I thought. I think there will be a pretty good team in Ann Arbor in a year or two. Better start game planning/worrying now.
  


• Bob have you met Drew Sharp from the Detroit Free Press? You two would get along great.
