re: Ohio State fans claiming Burrow is like

Why? Ohio State isn’t forgotten to Joe. He’s a graduate. Remember, he was a grad transfer. I don’t know if Ricks is an LSU grad. Probably half the fan base wanted him over Haskins and those are the ones still claiming. In Joe’s own words, deeds, and actions he’s a Tiger and Buckeye (my ordering was intentional).

In that interview, it was notable what Joe said and didn’t say. After saying he still claims Ohio State in addition to LSU, he said he still stays in contact with coach Day (his OSU OC/QB coach), coach Dennis (his OSU QB QC coach, and coach Marotti (his OSU S&C coach). Notably, no mention of Urban who made the choice for Haskins.

End of the day, it was win-win for both schools. But for Gerry Hodges, we would have played you in the Superdome in Jan 2020 and that would have been a hell of a game.
