I saw Terrell play both football and basketball in high school and, personally, I always thought he made the wrong choice. He was an awesome football player but I never thought much of his mechanics or passing skills, it looked like he got by purely on his speed. In basketball, I thought he had size, athleticism, and showed actual skill. He looked like the best basketball prospect I've seen around here since Danny Fortson.

Maybe Pryor can pull a reverse Greg Paulus and transfer to Pitt to play under Dixon.
