By: Bruce Hooley (FoxSportsOhio.com) — Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor has a college season left — albeit an abbreviated one — but he is already on the clock for the NFL draft.

Even as he sits out Ohio State’s spring game Saturday because of January ankle surgery and then starts his senior season with a five-game suspension for violating NCAA rules, NFL talent evaluators are weighing his pro prospects.

So, flashing forward to next year at this time, Pryor is already assured of having two check marks in the negative column when it comes to attracting an NFL suitor.

No matter what he does on the field this fall, Pryor will have the “injury” box and the “character issues” box red-lined by scouts whose job sometimes appears tilted more toward finding what’s wrong with a player than what is right with him.

There are plenty of numbers to make a case for Pryor as an outstanding college quarterback, starting with Ohio State’s 30-5 record since he stepped into the lineup the fourth game of his freshman season.

If he gets on the field as anticipated, Pryor will likely wind up the Buckeyes’ career leader in total offense, touchdowns (rushing and passing combined) and victories for a starting quarterback.

He might even leave Columbus with a host of passing numbers better than anyone in Ohio State history…….
