Terrelle Pryor cannot outrun his past

The former Ohio State star quarterback was ruled eligible for the 2011 NFL Supplementary draft by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Most people by now, know about Terrelle Pryor's problems with the NCAA and Ohio State.

Pryor was originally suspended for the first six games at Ohio State due to the memorabilia selling of his awards and personal possessions. After the NCAA made their decision, he decided to forego his senior year and move onto the NFL.

It has taken a while for Goodell to make the decision to allow Pryor into the NFL, but of course there is catch. For the first five games, Terrelle Pryor is not allowed to participate in practice nor a game until week 6 of the season. He may, however compete in pre-season games.

Some believe Pryor does not deserve this punishment and think the NCAA and the NFL should not merge into one seniority. I believe that Pryor deserves the six game suspension. It shows everyone that you cannot outrun your problems. That every action has its consequences.

Hopefully with all these scandals emerging in the NCAA level, this is a stepping stone on putting an end to rule breaking and unethical actions from young, promising student athletes.
