PITTSBURGH (AP)—Highly regarded prep quarterback Terrelle Pryor is headed to Ohio State.

The two-sports star announced his decision Wednesday at Jeannette High School, about 25 miles east of Pittsburgh, where he had one of the greatest prep careers in Pennsylvania history.

Flanked by his parents, brother, sister and other supporters, the 6-foot-6 Pryor wasted no time with his decision: “If everyone’s here,” he said, “University of Ohio State.”

He then unzipped his windbreaker to reveal an Ohio State T-shirt and donned an OSU hat.

Pryor picked Ohio State over Michigan, Penn State and Oregon.

Pryor said Oregon was too far away and Penn State too rural. He said he liked Michigan and new coach Rich Rodriguez, but felt that he has a better shot at making it to the NFL by going to Ohio State.

Would have had equal chance of going NFL @ Michigan as Ohio State. Both are premier colleges with a history of pumping out quality players into the NFL

And the track record of Wolverine QBs in the NFL as of late has been better than that of Buckeye QBs, so... ???

I didn't want to say anything about that since I'm in the Buckeye's forum and all... but yes, there were at least 3 Wolverine starting QBs in the NFL this past year.
