The Ohio State football program was very excited back in the 2008 season when they had Terrelle Pryor on their team as a freshman. He soon took over the starting quarterback job from Todd Boeckman, despite the fact that he had taken the Buckeyes to the national championship the year before.
Pryor was a five-star recruit out of high school, but never played like the transcendent talent he was supposed to be. He was an inaccurate thrower of the ball and wasn't able to do much passing the ball when he really was called upon. That's why he had to switch positions in the NFL.
