Pryor: See, I never just did things just to do them. Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden sell all my stuff for tattoos and spending money? Come on. I got a little more sense then that.

Pryor: Yeah, I remember selling all my stuff.

1-Teach him a lesson?
2-Yeah, he’s done so well avoiding trouble WITHOUT million$.

Wait, I’m a little lost. You clearly say that one of the circumstances is “deciding to leave school.” Isn’t that what he did?

He was suspended back in, I think, January. But, he still said he would go back to OSU. Then, months later HE DECIDED TO LEAVE SCHOOL.

So how is he not eligible?

Ask Mike Williams and the ex-Ohio State running back, who’s name escapes me at the moment.

That is hilarious. He SHOULD have been ruled ineligible, but wasn’t. And now it’s going to cost him. God works in mysterious, yet occasionally beautiful ways

“…usual examples of such circumstances would be academic ineligibility, getting kicked off a team or graduating and deciding to leave school.” This rule is probably inline with the eligibility rules of the regular draft in that you have to be so many years removed from high school to be eligible.

Teamwise there is two aspects: 1. If he can start on your favorite team then your favorite team is in VERY bad shape to begin with and 2. So what if a team takes a flier and sacrifices a 4th or 5th round pick. Last time i checked multiple players destroyed the UNC program last year including 1st round pick Robert Quinn and 2nd round picks Marvin Austin and Greg Little. I dont hear people crying out for them to rot at Walmart a year before joining the NFL. Lets kill the hypocrisy.

He’s done in college.

Him hiring an agent does not qualify him for the NFL draft. If he qualifies its on hardship or if the NFL rules the 5 game suspension was enough to change his circumstance and that’s probable but not for sure.

So he doesn’t get drafted, so what?
It will save some team from wasting a draft pick.

He’s still a FA and can sign with anyone?

No, he won’t be a free agent and won’t be able to sign with anyone. He’ll have to wait for the draft.

You’re obviously a Raider fan that’s as confused as Al Davis when it comes to understanding how the league works.

There are buy out options for those contracts. Last year there were a couple stories on here about players in the UFL that might jump to the NFL, but there were fees involved.

so if into the UFL season some team wants him bad enough. they can buy out the contract and sign him.

Guess your blind hatred for the raiders just made you crawl out from under your rock today.

He’s still a FA and can sign with anyone?

All he needs to do to get in the draft is admit he took large sums of money. He’d instantly be disqualified from competing at the collegiate, and therefore allowed to be in.

is that what you are saying?

Hi hired an agent, that alone makes him ineligible. He’ll never play College Footaball again because of that.

All he has to do is sign with the UFL or CFL for a week.

Then he can be called up to the NFL by any team that wants him.

Uh, players sign contracts to play in those leagues. I think you’re confusing a major league baseball farm system with the NFL. There is no such thing as being “called up” to the NFL from the CFL or UFL during the season.
