He graduated from OSU in 3 years so is playing as a graduate student right now. He redshirted his freshman year at OSU then played the next 2 years albeit in only a few games. He has played for LSU for 2 years so his eligibility is up. He is expected to be a top pick in the 2020 draft.
An interesting article about Burrow’s career and his decision making.

Thank you!
I think quarterback is one position, that requires as much experience as possible before you’re drafted. Wide outs, defensive guys, maybe, can enter the draft early, but I don’t know of many if any quarterbacks who entered the draft early and were successful.
Case in point is this Johnny Mizell, Mr. Football guy.
I’m thinking, EVERYBODY is telling him to enter the draft early. He had another year left for college, maybe two, but for sure one more, if you stay in college one more year, you’ll break all existing records, and probably take your team to a championship...and therefore you will always...always be a hero in Texas regardless what happens.
Instead, he goes early, and bombs...and bombs bad.
I think the guy, like Galen Hurts of Oklahoma, would have stabilized with another year in college.
Galen Hurts is turning out to be a nice surprise.
Is it Jalen or Galen?
