Pryor willing to sit out season in protest
After a series of racists videos and Snapchat messages were made public on Twitter by a student at William Amos Hough High School in Cornelius, N.C. on Wednesday night, Ohio State running back commit Evan Pryor – a rising senior at Hough – took action with his own post on Twitter.
Pryor put out a message that he experiences racism every day at Hough High School and that he is willing to sit out his senior season in protest if social changes are not made at the school and if racism is not addressed:
On Thursday night, Pryor made an appearance on The Charlotte Observer’s live streaming show, Talking Preps, to discuss the situation, what he hopes will be accomplished through his protest and the support he’s been receiving all around.
