The
skinny: Pryor is ranked by some scouting services as the No. 1
player in the country. He was the Post-Gazette Player of the Year
as a junior after rushing for 1,676 yards on 197 attempts, and
completing 92 of 163 passes for 1,732 yards. He also scored 29
touchdowns.
College
talk: Pryor says he will play football and basketball in
college, and he is being recruited by schools across the country
for both sports. He has narrowed his list to Alabama, Florida,
Georgia Tech, Michigan, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Ohio State,
Penn State, Southern California, Tennessee, Texas and West
Virginia.
You had more
than 3,000 yards offense last year. You've said you can do better
this year? Yeah. But some of the teams around here aren't that
great until you get into the playoffs. So you don't stay in the
game that long [to build up your statistics] unless your coach is
ignorant.
What's
better: a dunk in basketball or a long TD run in football? A
long touchdown in football, just because I'm so used to dunking.
It's not new.
What do you
think of Barry Bonds? People say he was on steroids and no one
is giving him credit. But no one caught him doing steroids, so
what's the big deal? Until someone catches him, he's the home run
king and you can't take it away from him.
Do you eat
breakfast much? Cereal. Fruity Pebbles.
What do you
need most for back to school? Shoes and jeans.
How many
pairs of sneakers do you have? About 45.
45? Who buys
them? My dad buys them. My mom buys them. I get them from AAU
coaches. I try to match them with whatever I wear.
Do you like
swimming in the ocean? Oh, no. I don't mess with sharks.
