If you really want to think about it, Burrow was a grad-transfer who never attended a class at LSU in person - did it all online from his apartment. He was a guy who came here to throw to NFL receivers as an audition to get a professional job - and it worked. College football is and always has been a minor league system for the NFL. I support opportunity and capitalism so go for it!
On the other hand, the allure of college athletics is the imagined bond with the athlete, “one of our kids” who represents us at our state institution. I can’t stand these countless posts “so-n-so QB is in the portal - let’s bring him in!”. I’d rather root for Nuss to go 9-3 than some dude I never heard of to go 10-2. That’s just me - I’m weird
