re: #9 Joe Burrow - LSU’s Starting Quarterback

As a buckeye fan I consider myself a guest and try to be as respectful as possible but I feel I must defend my position.

I will answer you line by line this time and I do respect your opinion although you dont have the knowledge of the Buckeyes I have.

1. Barrett did not always bring the team back, our defense which sent 9 players to the NFL draft the last 2 years kept the team in the game numerous times. I mention Haskins due to the fact that Burrow started the season with a broken bone in his hand which gave Hadskins the opportunity.

2.I do believe his backups were better. Give me a list of the elite Big 10 QBs that should replace him (along with his talented playmates) in his honors.

3.LSU does not automatically go on a championship run the next 2 years, I know that LSU has a great set of receivers, your good running back is being replaced and I know nothing about your O line. I know little about your defense which affects your offense greatly.

4.At one time JT Barrett was listed on the 11 Warrioes site (Buckeyes forum) as my favorite buckeye, so no, I'm not related to Barrow (?) Burrow. I did realize as time went on what the team lacked and what they needed.

You have to realize that in the past 2 years OSU has underachieved with 9 defensive players and 5 offensive players have been "drafted" into the NFL along with a few others including Barrett have also signed.

All the records you keep referring to could have gone to any QB that was given the opportunity to start every year like Barrett did.
