Don’t know much about this kid except that he’s had a helluva season, but it sounds like he might have a pretty good heart too.

Right up there with Tebow, in my book.

His story is pretty amazing. He wasn't given a scholarship at Nebraska where his father and his 2 brothers had played. He went to Ohio State originally but was used only as a backup to JT Barrett. It became clear soon that he would not get the starting position when Barrett left so Burrow transferred to LSU. He was eligible right away b/c he had already graduated from OSU in 3 years.

His Heisman speech was really incredible. He had a very hard time getting through it b/c he was so full of emotion. He, incredibly, thanked his offensive line first- before coaches, parents, etc. He is an extremely talented QB who I hope will be successful in the pros. I can see him as a role model kids can admire b/c of his work ethic and his big heart.
