The minute Joe Burrow was announced LSU's starting quarterback, Twitter erupted with messages of congratulations from his former Buckeye teammates, showing just how liked and appreciated Burrow was in the locker room and just how genuinely excited they are to see him succeed.
Here's a sampling:

Burrow's first game is on Sunday night, which should allow all of his former teammates to watch his debut. And based on the reaction when he was announced the starter, I think more than a few will be tuning in.
