#1 Pick Joe Burrow transferred to LSU from OSU because he could not beat out who? - Justin Fields

[Payton34Sayers40]

So when they talk about Fields transferring from Jowlgia, keep this in mind. Fields is the reason Heisman winner and #1 pick Burrow transferred from OSU.

Liking this pick more and more as more facts come out.

I also like his low turnover ratio, toughness, unflappable nature and high accuracy percentage.

As for the 2 games he did not look good in, keep these facts in mind: 1) Both NW and Indy had top 10ish ranked defenses, 2) because of Covid his normal weekly practice schedule before games was interrupted -- the Big 10 was much tougher than other conferences with very strict Covid protocals, and 3) he was without one his best receivers and was missing some of his linemen due to injury and Covid.

I would say look at his 2019 season to get a more accurate read on who he is -- and week in and week out, the kid killed it!

Nope, Joe Burrow transferred out of OSU because of Dwayne Haskins. Just bad luck because Burrow broke his throwing hand which allowed Haskins to jump him. He transferred in 2018.

A few of the media guys have repeated that as well today, but like mentioned above, they’re actually thinking of Dwayne Haskins.

Fields put In a hardship request to transfer from UG because there was a blatant racist on the UG baseball team throwing racial slurs in Fields direction right in front of coaches and the sports committee. That player was suspended indefinitely from UG.

Wow had no idea. Hopefully Pace watches his mouth around him.

I am glad that he didn't have to wait a year. I think college players should be able to transfer whenever they want and not lose eligibility. They also need to get paid.

The point is, the narrative that Fields transferred because he couldn't beat out Jake Fromm is completely false.

Honestly i dont give a shit about any of that. What i do care about is the QB i saw and was so impressed with every time i saw him in a big game.

They can as of this year.

It was a long time coming. I feel college players still get a raw deal. They need to get paid. They should at least be able to profit of their name.

I heard on an interview with Pat Fitzgerald, that one in the game versus NU fields was playing with an injured thumb, and two, he is so glad to see him go so he doesnt have to play versus him anymore.
