COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns annual scrimmage at Ohio Stadium on Saturday turned into a happy homecoming for Terrelle Pryor, the former Ohio State quarterback turned Browns receiver.Returning to the stadium where he starred in college from 2008-10, Pryor caught six passes in the teams Orange and Brown scrimmage, including a touchdown pass each from quarterbacks Robert Griffin III and Josh McCown.He got a huge cheer each time from the Columbus crowd, and after the last reception -- a 75-yard touchdown streak down the right sideline -- he turned to the stands to lead the 42,310 fans in an O-H-I-O cheer.Just like the old days -- at least the days before he departed amid a memorabilia-for-tattoos scandal that led to the ouster of coach Jim Tressel and Pryor being banned from campus for five years.Playing here is electric, you know? he said afterward.Football is football, no matter where its at, he said. It all feels the same. I know this is the most amazing crowd here, and Browns fans are pretty awesome as well, but football is football. When (Im) between the lines, I dont hear anything. Im focused on the guy who is trying to stop me, and Im coming for him. Thats it.Browns coach Hue Jackson said hes pleased with how hard Pryor has worked to learn his new position. His progress toward that conversion was interrupted by a nagging hamstring injury last year. Hes now trying to lock down one of the roster spots.Hes done a tremendous job, Jackson said. Theres a lot of guys I can say that about, but hes taken this opportunity and is trying to make the most of it. Hes worked extremely hard.Griffin also raved about Pryor.Hes a big guy, physical, Griffin said. Hes got an elite trait that you cant coach, and thats size. Hes been able to utilize that while hes been in camp and in the spring. We love the progress that hes made.Pryor said it felt good to be welcomed back to the Ohio State campus now the ban has been lifted. It was still in effect last year, but he was given permission to participate in the Browns scrimmage at the stadium.All Ive heard is positive vibes, he said. Guys make mistakes and whatever. I can go into that blah-blah story again, but it is what it is. Its life, and theres still the next chapter.STILL NO STARTER NAMEDJackson said hes close to selecting a starter for Fridays exhibition opener against Green Bay. Its expected to be Griffin, who was 12 for 19 with two touchdowns in Saturdays no-tackle scrimmage, but Jackson has yet to say so for sure. Griffin is competing with McCown, Austin Davis and rookie Cody Kessler for the spot.Well know here pretty soon exactly what were doing, Jackson said. I think everybody is seeing him get better and better every day. Im not surprised. Were trying to create the right environment for him to be all that he can be, and I think hes working hard.Griffin, who was sharp in practice all week, is saying all the right things.Its just about coming out every day and proving it, he said. We want to make sure everybody earns their spot, earns their keep and thats everybodys goal every time they step out on the field.McCown, who played in eight games and threw for 2,109 yards with 12 touchdowns for the Browns in 2015, has been the subject of trade talk involving the Dallas Cowboys, who are interested in him as a backup to Tony Romo.GETTING READY TO GOThe Browns had a full-contact scrimmage on Friday night before traveling to Columbus for the Saturday workout, which was more of a show for the Columbus fans than a nuts-and-bolts practice. Jackson said the travel was a dry run for the trip to Green Bay to play the first exhibition game.I thought it was important for our team to really get ready for next Friday, he said. I thought we had a hard night last night and we came back today, and I wanted to prepare them for what we were going to face next week as far as being on the road, understanding how we go through our process preparing for a game, and I thought they handled that part of it well.---Follow Mitch Stacy at http://www.twitter.com/mitchstacy Wholesale Soccer Jerseys China .

HOOVER, Ala. -- The SEC East is relying heavily on three former Nick Saban assistants to restore balance to the league.The division that once reigned with the likes of Steve Spurrier, Phillip Fulmer, Mark Richt and Urban Meyer hasnt won a Southeastern Conference title in eight years. Saban and Alabama still lead a formidable parade of Western Division teams but theres an abundance of new blood in that sometimes overlooked East.Georgia hired Crimson Tide defensive coordinator Kirby Smart, South Carolina turned to ex-Saban defensive coordinator Will Muschamp and Missouri promoted defensive coordinator Barry Odom.Not that the East is getting defensive about that one-sided recent history. Florida, after all, had already turned a year earlier to former `Bama offensive coordinator Jim McElwain.I think balance and parity is a key for any conference, said Smart, a former Georgia player in his first head coaching turn. I think if you ask the commissioner, he would like to have that balance. Thats why they divided the conference the way they did.It certainly hasnt been that way. Its our job on the East to do something about that. Weve got to do a great job on our side to compete, recruit, get the right facilities, put the right programs in place to be successful.Missouri won back-to-back East titles before falling to 5-7 in Gary Pinkels final season. The Tigers allowed 101 points in a pair of title-game defeats.An indication of how cyclical these things can be, the East won six of the first seven SEC championship games. And Meyers Florida teams contributed a couple of championships during the SECs current run of eight national titles in 10 years.Tim Tebow and the Gators topped Alabama in the 2008 league title game, but the East hasnt won since. Six of the last seven games havent even been decided by double-digit margins, including scores like 42-13 (Alabama-Missouri), 42-10 (LSU-Georgia) and 56-17 (Auburn-South Carolina).McElwain is entering his second season at Fllorida, where he debuted with an SEC East title and a 29-15 loss to the Tide in Atlanta.dddddddddddd McElwain was part of Alabamas national championships in 2009 and 2011.Its not something you can really just go and talk about, McElwain said. Its something that you have to live every single day in the development of getting a little bit better. And for us, having an opportunity to play in that game was huge because I think it was a class of guys in the University of Florida history that might have been the first one to miss Atlanta since ... they started playing that SEC championship game.Georgia hammered home the urgency of catching up with the likes of Alabama and LSU by firing Richt, who won 74 percent of his games but only one SEC title -- way back in 2005.The Bulldogs turned to longtime Saban assistant Smart, who helped the Tide win four national titles over the past seven seasons. Georgia filled up Sanford Stadium for the spring game, much as Alabama did at Bryant-Denny Stadium after Sabans hiring.This year I think fans do expect a lot, you could see that from our spring game, 93,000 and probably more, Bulldogs tight end Jeb Blazevich said. I am sure a lot more people could fit into those stands, so that is a unique environment.I think the fans are ready, were ready, so I think they should expect a lot and that is the culture we want around here. A culture of high expectations because we surely set it for ourselves so we want our fans to expect the same.Muschamp, who worked under Saban at LSU, takes over a South Carolina team coming off a 3-9 season that marked the first losing season since Spurrier took over in 2005. The Gamecocks had three straight 11-2 seasons from 2011-13 before falling off.Coach Spurrier and his staff have bought this program to relevance nationally, and thats what we plan to build on, Muschamp said.
