Pryor done at Ohio State

June 7, 2011 - 6:31 PM

---A week after Ohio State coach Jim Tressel resigned, quarterback Terrelle Pyor announced, through his agent, that he has decided not to return for his senior season, ending his career with the Buckeyes.

“In the best interest of my teammates, I have made the decision to forgo my senior year of football at The Ohio State University,” Pryor said in a statement released by his lawyer, Larry James.

Pryor was one of five players currently under suspension for the first five game of the 2011 season because of their involvement in selling memorabilia for cash and tattoos.
