Despite what LSU offensive coordinator Steve Ensminger would like us to believe, that school’s football program isn’t necessarily known for throwing top-end quarterbacks out there.
It remains to be seen if this will change that entire dynamic. But former Ohio State four-star recruit Joe Burrow has reportedly decided to transfer to Baton Rouge.

A highly recruited quarterback back in 2015 from Ohio, Burrow never really got a fair shake in Columbus. He threw just 39 passes in his first two seasons after being a redshirt back in 2015.
Considered a prototypical 6-foot-3 pro-style quarterback, Burrow will be eligible to play in 2018 as a graduate-transfer. He’s obviously in line to compete for the starting job at LSU.
