Terrelle Pryor is an American football and basketball player from Jeannette, Pennsylvania. He is entering his senior year at Jeannette Senior High School. Pryor is considered the most versatile athlete in Pennsylvania high school sports since Tom Clements. The 6 foot 6 inch Pryor is considered a top 25 basketball prospect by most recruiting analysts, but is also widely regarded as the nation's top football prospect, as he was named “Junior of the Year” by Rivals.com. Playing quarterback for the Jeannette Jayhawks, Pryor has drawn comparisons to former Texas Longhorn and current Tennessee Titans star quarterback Vince Young.My homie is way better than vice run over car young
During his sophomore year of high school, Pryor verbally committed to the University of Pittsburgh to play basketball, but has since withdrawn from that commitment to explore his rising stock and dozens of scholarship offers to be a collegiate quarterback.
Pryor has several scholarship offers from major colleges, and although he has not listed a clear cut favorite, Pryor has trimmed his list of schools down to 12, including Alabama, Florida, Georgia Tech, Michigan, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, Southern California, Tennessee, Texas, and West Virginia. Terrelle hopes to play both football and basketball in college. No player has ever turned the feat of being a starting quarterback and basketball star at a major college since Charlie Ward did it for Florida State University in the early 1990's.
