LSU has officially announced the signing of former Ohio State quarterback Joe Burrow who comes to Baton Rouge as a graduate transfer. Per LSUSports.net:
quote:

BATON ROUGE – LSU officially added graduate transfer quarterback Joe Burrow to the 2018 roster as the school received his signed institutional athletics financial aid agreement and the Southeastern Conference Grant-in-Aid Agreement, head coach Ed Orgeron announced.

Burrow comes to LSU from Ohio State where he spent the past three years. Burrow graduated from Ohio State earlier this month with a degree in consumer & family financial services. He will be eligible immediately and will have two years of eligibility remaining when he joins the LSU program.

Burrow redshirted for Ohio State in 2015 and then served as a backup to starter J.T. Barrett in both 2016 and 2017. Burrow saw action in 10 games during his Ohio State career, completing 29-of-39 passes for 287 yards and two TDs. He also rushed for 53 yards and a score.

His best game came in a 62-3 win over Nebraska in 2016 when he completed all six of his passes for 62 yards. He also rushed for a touchdown in the win over the Cornhuskers. He threw TD passes in wins over Bowling Green and Maryland in 2016.

Burrow earned Academic All-Big Ten Conference honors as well as being named an Ohio State Scholar-Athlete in 2016. Read more.

Congrats, you got a good one! He will do well with you, especially with your receivers. Will he be number 10 again?

Whoever is running this Site stop showing him in Ohio State uniform as he does not play for them anymore.

I want the best QB on the roster to get the starting job. I honestly don't know what this kid is capable of. We will have to see as camp progresses. I'm still a Brennan fan, but Burrow had options. He wouldn't have came to LSU unless he was told the starting gig was his. I think the job is his to lose at this point. Not knocking him or anything. I hope he comes in and plays like Drew Brees! I just kinda reading the terrain.

If you are a LSU fan and don't know what that means, you are dumb. If you aren't an LSU fan and are criticizing another team's traditions, declare your team so we can make fun of their traditions.

hopefully he makes quicker decisions when he's in the pocket.

Then who? First of all most quick decisions are based on how many defensive linemen or line backers are in the QBs face! Hope the OL protects better than they did in the spring debacle.
