Talent wise I think we have just as good maybe better talent on our roster than Burrow. It's not about pure talent. It's about how ready they are mentally and physically to play big time college football.

I think this guy is head and shoulders more prepared simply because he's been through adversity and handled it very well. He was Mr. football in the state of Ohio and sat for 3 years while JT Barrett won tons of games. He probably would have at least shared time as a starter this year but chose to leave bc sometimes a 5*s potitial to be great is just too good to pass on.

I think Urban is now biting his nails bc this guy would have been his go to if the uber talented 5*s didn't pan out. I just like the mentality that this guy Burrow will bring to the QB room. Our QBs will have to either learn from him or beat him outright. Both are great for LSU.

I mean people really feel a 3rd string QB at another P5 conference school is the difference? That is a testament to the current QB's LSU has then. I mean he should be no better than the two guys who've been in the system for a year since it would be his first time in the system. Yet, many believe him a savior of some sorts.

Actually we had an average veteran, a beanpole who throws a nice ball, and a project who has not moved past being a project.

When you get the chance to win the job and can’t throw 50%, you need some more work. Whereas Burrow showed out.
