Pryor’s Big Ten presumed title ring sold on eBay
A ring that appeared to be quarterback Terrelle Pryor ‘s from Ohio State’s 2008 Big Ten championship team sold on eBay for $18,000 on Saturday night, according to CBSSports.com. The ring that matched the description of Pryor’s and was accompanied by a picture with his last name embossed on it also noted the team’s 42-7 victory over Michigan on Nov. 28, 2008. The Buckeyes’ 2008 season was marred by the “tattoo-gate” scandal in which players received cash for memorabilia and ultimately led to head coach Jim Tressel’s departure from the program. The resulting NCAA penalties left Ohio State unable to play in a BCS bowl game last season despite a 12-0 record. Pryor, currently with the Oakland Raiders, left the program after the scandal became public and entered the NFL’s Supplemental Draft.

As the league expands, adding tie-ins is a must. According to Tom Dienhart at the Big Ten Network, the league is expected to add the Holiday Bowl and the Fight Hunger Bowl as well.

B1G country producing fewer top NFL picks
The Big Ten endured arguably the worst NFL draft in its history last month, and its struggles to produce high first-round talent are well documented. The league hasn’t had a top-10 pick since Michigan’s Jake Long and Ohio State’s Vernon Gholston went No. 1 and No. 6, respectively, in the 2008 draft.
