(Possible) Pryor tattoo tweet from last night
I didn't see it before it supposedly got deleted, but Ken Gordon answering a question on Twitter about it made me go to the googles. Apprently Pryor said this last night:
"It's funny if y'all actually knew the story. I didn't receive free tattoos. I took money which I'm dealing w my wrongdoings"
If true, that's obviously interesting with all sorts of fun speculation to be had. Google results suggest Scout has a thread on it behind the paywall, but I'm not a member and can't confirm. Here's a Tennessee message board that gave me the full quote.
Here is Ken Gordon's twitter where he mentions some bad tweeting on Pryor's part.
**SIAP. This is my first new topic, and I think I followed all the procedures for checking.
I think he's saying that he took money for his crap to pay for tattoos, not that he just got free tattoos.
Not sure what the difference is, but it's not like Pryor is on the short list for the Rhodes Scholarship.
but I'll bet he's on the short bus
nah, hes driving his loaner cars
a lot of this very soon
that picture never gets old!
It was from 1998 when they lost to sparty when they were #1

I'll never forget that game. I absolutely LOVED IT after Joe Germaine threw that game ending interception in the end zone and John Cooper exploded and threw his hat. Priceless.
That was a really, really, crappy Sparty team that beat them in Columbus, too.
Then Sparty being Sparty went out and lost their last 2 games of the season.

I thought it was from their trip down to Austin. Not sure at all, though.
Buckeye tears are cheap and plentiful in Columbus these days. I'm stockpiling them to make my magic stronger.

And recorded on such a fine camcorder as well. Can we raise, say, $100 so Rivals can take the quality of our practice videos to the next level?

Hey...don't steal my avatar!
Thank God he never came to Ann Arbor. Anyone who debates that is a fucking idiot.
If during the recruitment process, you tell an athlete that he is worth a specific six-figure dollar amount to you, I can see where taking a few hundred here and there seem like a pretty small thing. I, for one, am very glad we stayed away.
what are you referencing with the six-figure dollar amount?

"I am glad we stayed away"
I don't know how much we "stayed away." Seems to me we went after him as much as anyone else. He just chose to play in the worst state ever.
When your newly hired coach calls Pryor and tells him he's coming to Michigan before he even tells his current employer and players, I'd agree that "we stayed away" is some revisionist history.
But Denard has more class in one molecule of one dread than TP will ever have in his entire body. When I see DR inverviewed, it makes me proud to be a wolverine.
April 14th, 2011 at 10:01 PM ^
There is no bias in that, TP is classless even by TSIO standards.
April 14th, 2011 at 10:12 PM ^
I once wanted TP to come to AA.
He elected to go to Columbus.
I was sad.
Now...
HAIL!

and Sweatervest that anything else. "Kind of shameful!"
Why would he even go there...WTH!
Oh, thank GOODNESS you cleared that up, Terrelle. You are such a class act through and through! Keep up the good work champ!
There does not appear to be a screen cap of the tweet before TP deleted it. But it was re-tweeted by dozens of people, so it's legit.
