Ohio State’s loss could be a big gain for someone else.
Joe Burrow’s decision to transfer from Ohio State on Tuesday didn’t come as a big surprise, as the redshirt junior quarterback and recent Ohio State graduate had previously stated on multiple occasions that he would consider transferring if he didn’t win the starting job.
But while Ohio State will now proceed forward with Dwayne Haskins as its likely starting quarterback, Burrow also has the potential to be one of college football’s best quarterbacks, and as such, the graduate transfer should immediately become the top player available on college football’s version of a free-agent market.
