If Saturday’s spring game was any indication, Ohio State could have a three-headed monster at running back this season with TreVeyon Henderson, Miyan Williams and Evan Pryor.
Although Ohio State wasn’t even in the red zone yet, Pryor had a touchdown on his mind from the moment he received the ball.
Pryor had another highlight late in the third quarter when he beat Chip Trayanum on a wheel route out of the backfield for a downfield catch that went for a 35-yard gain. “A lot of stuff we did with out of the backfield last season, I feel like I can do as well,” Pryor said earlier this spring. “In terms of route running, not having to switch personnel maybe if you want to keep him in the slot, you want to do something out of the backfield with your running back, that's something I bring to the table.”
“He's had a very good spring,” Ryan Day said after the spring game. “He can change direction in short areas. He's good out of the backfield. He catches the ball. And so he gives us a little wiggle in there, which is nice. It’s a little bit of a change of pace with the offense. If he continues to grow and he can hang onto the ball, then he's going to have an impact on this offense this year.
