^^ Our offense will be different next year and it will be even more different during Toussaint's freshman year because of Pryor. When he's in there, it will be developed around him. It would be almost a Hybrid offense if you will. We aren't going to have a full out spread, but we won't be the same pro-offense that we once were without Pryor. In our offense, PRyor will learn to throw, thus become more reliant on his arm than his feet. He will still run, probably a lot, but he will throw more often and more efficiantly. By his Junior year, the offense will be more pro than spread because of how his arm has developed. Almost exactly like Troy Smith. We will still need to keep some kinda variation of the spread though, because when you got 4.4 speed, it needs to be taken advantage of. You see where I'm going?...

I think we already have thay guy though with Lammar Thomas I dont see the need to bring in another type of player like that. But i am no expert i would much rather see another big bruiser like Beanie. Herron is kinda of small and so is Saine. I like the video of Hyde but he will be tough to get out of Fl along with Lamar Miller who seems to be a pretty hard Miami lean already.

But its still February we have another 11 months of recruiting

Ohio State did run a spread Troy Smith's senior year. It wasn't a spread-option, though, which is what schools like Michigan run. We would spread defenses out with five-wide and throw the ball around, or we would just line up in the I-Formation or singleback and simply knock you down. I forgot the exact percentage, but I believe Ohio State ran the ball 56% percent of the time that year. I expect that offense to be the one that Terrelle Pryor to have to master, but I think we'll see more option plays like Troy Smith in his junior year. With so many weapons out there the formations and strategies will be endless. Options to Lamaar Thomas, screens to Jake Stoneburner, deep outs with DeVier Posey, twin back sets with Danny Herron and Brandon Saine at fullback, reverses, and maybe even some quarterback screens.

My friend told me Tressel contacted Marlon Brown. I don't know about you guys, but not a day goes by when I don't think about the potential this guy has in Scarlet and Gray...

With the Cavaliers trade and all this '09 recruiting going on, this completely slipped my mind! Is it true that Pryor and his RB/WR ATH Jordan Hall are in Columbus right now and will be attending the Wisconsin game?

Jamie Wood committed to Ohio State today. He looks to be a killer safety prospect.
