    Just saw on ESPN that Pryor and 4 others were suspended for the first 5 games next season.

    And for the Sugar Bowl...

    I don't understand what the problem with this is. You are being provided a service not a car or jersey.

    If my friend is a tattoo artist and says he would hook me up with free Tattoo, I don't see what the big deal is.

    read the article... not about the tatoos but about selling stuff like jerseys and big ten championship rings... they're morons for doing that.

    FIRST wait that your colleg career is over THEN sell stuff!

    It's really funny, ESPN's Joe Schad is reporting that Pryor's High School coach said he sold all of those things to help out his mother. Have you seen this kid on tv? He is wearing Beats by Dre Headphones ($350) and rocking ridiculous suits every time he is on t.v.. It's unbelievable how naive people are to believe that his mother needed the money.

    You think that Newton's dad demanded 180K a year (or whatever it was) from Mississippi State and then just took NOTHING! NOTHING! from Auburn!!! GTFO of here. College Football is so corrupt something needs to be done

    For the price they aren't that great. Sennheiser headphones are much better for the price.

    The reason why Beats By Dre headphones can charge so much is because of all of the endorsements they are getting from these superstar athletes and celebrities. Its just the next thing suburban white kids need to own to be in the "cool crowd".

    With that being said props to HP for taking advantage of this untapped demographic

    I dont think Pryor would have come out of the draft this year if it wasn't for this suspension. Although he is a superb athlete his skills as a passer are not where they need to be for him to get drafted in the first round which is obviously where he wants to go.

    if they weren't already, they probably will now

    no one wants to come back for a season and miss 5 games of it.

    The logic stinks, as does ESPN's spelling.

    I could see all four heading to the NFL, and they'd all end up doing fairly well. Posey would probably be a late 2 type with all of the wideouts available, but Adams could go a lot higher than people think. Herron is a decent enough player to get good looks too. Pryor shouldn't go into the process thinking that he's some top notch QB prospect, and I'm still not sure that will be his best bet to make an impact in the NFL.

    I think he's got the ability to play quarterback in the NFL, but I'd be scared to invest money into that kid.

    Pryor's been nothing but an arrogant, immature douche since his senior year of high school.

    He's such a good god damn athlete that he could probably play receiver in the NFL - I don't think he'll want to do that though.

    He'll run well at the combine, he's got great size, and he's one of the best athletes in the country. This kid could be the next Matt Jones or a nice surprise.

    It's all about the Benjamins.

    If Ohio State wasn't playing in a BCS bowl, there's no doubt in my mind that they'd be suspended for their bowl game.

    I wonder if the NCAA will suspend players for getting blowjobs, too.
