QB Joe Burrow (transfer to LSU, 2019 Heisman Winner, National Champion, Cincinnati Bengals)

[Zurp]

BWI seems to think he's worth about as much as I am. He didn't get an offer from Franklin, so how good can he be?

I wonder what they'll say when he's throwing 5 TDs in Happy Valley.

Congratulations, Joe Burrow. Best of luck.

Love this offer and commitment.

Could be wrong, but I believe this is the first Ohio QB that Urban's offered, not withstanding the "offer" to the kid that ended up at UNC and Zaire, who was offered by Tressel.

Congrats young man. Must feel great to know you will be a Buckeye.

At first I was like...

But now I'm like...

Athens plays Big Red this season! Can't wait to see this kid live.

He's a playmaker. Obviously he doesn't have the ability of a Pryor or Braxton, but if you put playmakers around him, he'll get them the ball. Reminds me of Kenny Guiton in a way, but more athletic and further along with his passing.

I really like this commit and seeing us bring in a QB who appears is pass first, yet athletic enough to run the spread effectively.

If he is a Kenny G that can throw a little better I couldn't ask for anything more.

Think he's got way more upside than Kenny based on his arm strength. He's got solid mechanics, quick release, and great short area quickness. Love the offer.

Now we have a QB in the fold and have some flexibility.

Already working on Hilliard, per his Twitter. Go get him Joe!

Don't underestimate Kenny G's work ethic. He busted his butt to get to where he was by his senior year. If Burrows exerts the same effort, he will be special.

Hello Alex Smith 2.0

I like this comparison.

 

[LitlBuck]

I wonder if he prefers Joey over Joe

Welcome to The family!

As many others have stated, I love this commitment. With all the speed we have on offense, a QB that can manage the game and get the ball to the skill guys might just be what we need.
