For those that don’t think burrow will be ready in time for Miami

Look. Teams like bama, auburn, Ohio State, lots of west coast teams and more start a new qb damn near each year. Georgia comes to mind of late. While Joey doesn’t have the luxury of “lots” of time to learn our plays he does have “ enough” time. How? Why? Because of previous experience and having it between the ears. College football playbooks are not rocket science. Too many other teams install players who do just fine. Joey knows football. It’s not like his tiger playbook will be written in another language. Thoughts?

He will be ready in time.

I’m not worried only 35% of the playbook is in according to coach O and the offense fits him we will be fine

Assuming he has the fundamentals down, all he really needs to learn is the playbook which apparently is only at 35% right now. He'll be alright, there's only so many different routes a WR can run.

If Burrow doesn’t start against Miami this is all for nothing and it’s all over.
I’m one of the biggest O critics out there and even I am pumped about this season now.
There will never be a better situation for O to succeed. Never.
But if his hand picked staff can’t put together an offense good enough with an Urban Meyer developed QB to let Aranda’s defense carry us to at least a NY6 Bowl, this experiment is an undeniable failure and it is time to pull the plug.

Legally, the coaches cant work with him until Auguast camp. So it will be tough on him in that regard.
Secondly, we cannot just stop what we are doing and stop developing the projected starters of spring ball. So that will take a lot of snaps away.
Guy has been at ODU 3 years and another kid came in and outperformed him and took the starting job. A kid with a set of talent skills like LN.
I get it...I understand the excitement. But automatically saying this guy is better than Brennan or LF....well it's just premature.

My first thought was, Miami won't be ready for Joey in time.

You can’t undervalue the fact that he is a “graduate transfer”. That means no school requirements. He simply shows up for one job and one job only: football!
Posted on 5/19/18 at 7:41 am to copenhagen pete
I agree, as long as he puts in the work he will be fine. The big thing will be timing with receivers and most importantly chemistry and getting to know his teammates. Getting to know his teammates and teammates getting to know him and developing trust is the biggest issue.

I can’t wait to see Burrows play. I’m not buying into the hype but very eager to see what the kid has.
Posted on 5/19/18 at 8:31 am to copenhagen pete
Just to state the obvious, don’t expect perfection from the kid.
Posted on 5/19/18 at 8:39 am to copenhagen pete
Has O shown him ‘the binder’?
Posted on 5/19/18 at 9:20 am to copenhagen pete
He's graduated. He can learn a playbook in no time at all.
Posted on 5/19/18 at 9:30 am to copenhagen pete
He can certainly be coached enough to be ready for one game. Miami.
Posted on 5/19/18 at 9:33 am to copenhagen pete
The offense will be limited some because he doesn’t have the luxury of a lot of time. But I think that would have been the case regardless of who our QB was. It’s a new offense. Everyone has to learn it. The QB has more to learn than anyone else, but hopefully he’s smart enough to not be the weak link.
Posted on 5/19/18 at 9:34 am to copenhagen pete
No worries. I think he’ll be ready. I trust Ensminger. Just as long as O stays out of it this dude will be fine.

One of the reasons he is coming to lsu because we are going to run an offense that he already knows.

He will not only be prepared he will probably be over prepared as far as playbook......
Hes got to spent quality time with his receivers though this summer off the practice field to get feel of each's speed and abilities

I agree. Coach's kid. Graduated in three years. The playbook is the least of his concerns. Welcome aboard, JB.

Joe Burrow is smart, athletic and accurate. He has an unbelievable football IQ. He is the worst nightmare for posters like Darius David and Chinoyang
