We need more Terrelle Pryor articles from the dispatch. I think you should have a seperate section dedicated to Terrelle Pryor coverage. For example, the front page, metro, sports, life, and Terrelle.

I hope Carlos Hyde can have a productive year at Fork Union and turn that into
success at OSU both in the classroom and on the field. With a little luck, maybe
he can follow in Eddie George's footsteps at OSU after Eddie attended Fork
Union.
Although I don't know what the source material was that Ken Gordon used, I am
not surprised one bit that the 5 other schools mentioned concerning the number
of recruits signed since 2006 are all public schools from the SEC. I'm guessing
these schools have minimum admission standards when it comes to football
players because of the win at all costs philosophy that seems to exist at all SEC
schools except Vanderbilt and Kentucky.

Most people do not realize that Michigan State has stringent academic admittance policies that are similar, if not the same, as Ohio State.
Not a knock against OSU, but both schools are members of the Big Ten, which requires that student-athletes have higher grades/standardized test scores than most other conferences.

ridiculous and biased journalism regarding Javon Ringer. OSU's so called "loss" was certainly MSU's gain. Although Javon is a fine football player, he is finer as a person and an ambassador for Michigan State as a university.
I will miss him this upcoming season in Spartan Stadium as a player and a person

Totally not biased no one is criticizing Mr Ringer .we would have been proud to have him as the second back behind Beanie,they would have been unstoppable.The point is he didn't qualify here.To the point now.The NCAA is supposed to help and protect the student athlete. I've never seen how taking away college time accomplishes that goal.To penalize a kid for not making it academically is antithetical to there stated mission .If a kid doesn't qualify at one school he should be able to go to a CC and re qualify the next yr without losing playing time.

Daily Horoscope for December 27

Sagittarius

After all the excitement of the past few days you're longing for the chance to put your feet up and take life easy for a while. Ideally, you should bury your nose in a good book and be left alone until you resurface for a food transfusion. But you'll also enjoy chatting to someone you know very well and for whom you don't have to make a big effort, such as a close relative.
