Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor is currently concentrating on playing his best as the team is dealing with its first mandatory minicamp of the offseason and while that was going on, the QB had one of his most famous pieces of memorabilia sold, as his Ohio State Buckeyes Big Ten Championship ring was purchased on eBay.

According to USA Today, the ring was sold by a user named "finelineinkusa2010", which could link back as 'fine ink' and to the previous tattoo scandal that the quarterback dealt with in 2008. The description of the ring said as much, that it was Pryor's from the Big Ten championship and was traded in the tattoo scandal and now it has sold to another buyer for over $18,000. Pryor is engraved into the ring and it commemorates the 42-7 win over Michigan in November of that year.

The scandal that followed the memorabilia for tattoos trade ended up costing Jim Tressel his job and Pryor was suspended before he entered the NFL supplemental draft. Pryor was selected by the Raiders in the draft and he got a five-game suspension after avoiding penalty in college. The ring was one of a few pieces sold on the page, including ones for sale from Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive tackle Mike Adams, and Houston Texans wide receiver Devier Posey, while others that were listed included Soloman Thomas and Jamil Martin.

Pryor's was the most popular and the most expensive and while the authenticity of the rings has not been verified, that did not stop people from bidding.
