One man, in one moment, can make a difference.
No matter what happens tonight, I am so proud of Joe and being an LSU fan.
Joe Burrow Highlights I’m on OSU fan and I’m proud of joe! Great guy!
Joe is a legit good dude, he deserves all the riches of the NFL.
Boyyyy
Being from Southeastern Ohio. This hit home with me. Congratulations on a great season Joe Burrow!
A+ player, A+ human being.
That was an awesome thing that young man did to help poor people and his state may God continue on blessing him I wish you much success Joe
He’s the real article. I’m so blessed to have been here in Baton Rouge to watch him do his MAGIC. And it was nothing short of magic.
Class Act.
When I walk on LSU’s campus I just want to give him a hug and tell him, “Thank you, thank you, thank you for all that you have done. Your leadership, talent and humility have lifted the region and inspired many including myself. Your parents have to be exceedingly proud.”
His speech brings me to tears.
God bless, Joe and the Burrow Family.
God Bless my LSU TIGERS & fans.
Selfless, what an eye opener! You deserve all that you get Joe B. Thanks for being the voice of many!
Forever Fan of Joe!!
SouthernOhio loves YOU!!❤
Joe Burrow shows compassion and class in Collegiate athletics and just being a good person❤️
Never forget where you come from!
Except when they forget you
I’m not an LSU fan , they were the best team this year. Joe Burrows has shown class as a heisman on the field & off. I tip my hat to him , congratulations to him & the 🐯
Being born and raised in Ohio, I can tell you this. We show loyalty and dedication to those that help us as we pass through life's highway and as Coach Woody Hayes said "You can not always pay back but you can pay it forward". For him to place his community on his shoulders and shine a light where there was none speaks VOLUMES for this MAN''S character. He could have just got caught up in the moment and forgot them. I hope his message inspires those people in southeast Ohio and let's them know they are not forgotten.
Thank you, Joe Burrow !!!!
Meanwhile there’s a QB over in Wisconsin that goes on interviews to cry about how he’s being persecuted and treated unfairly 🙄 in a world full of egocentrism, be a Burrow 👍
Incredible clip and was always Burrow's opponent fan but great guy and thanks for an uplifting video.
Being from southern Ohio and a Buckeye fan I was beyond happy for him. Athens is about an hour away and it’s identical to where I’m from. It’s very poor here but we get by. I couldn’t be more proud of him and only wish he would have gotten a chance at OSU. But I was a LSU fan that night. I’m so happy for him seeing his speech was the greatest in Heisman history. Once again so very proud of him and what he did on the field and for Athens. Truly a great man
He is a Great Guy! This is an example of what a football player with his platform should do to make change for the cause he cares about!
Good kid he could do alot in his life
All professional athletes that hit the big show should give back in some way . Joe Burrow is a class act , good job Joe I’m sure your family and friends are very proud of you and as a Buckeye born sports fan I am too 👍👍👍👍👍👍
LETS GEAUX JEAUX
Good video Joe Bro person good
Superbowl bound JOEY B 💜
Love this so much
This SPEECH got me on the JOE BANDWAGON....Just ordered a Joe Jersey 🇯🇪
Inspiring! Joe Burrows is an example of everything good about CFB!
Oh wow Joe.. look what you've done.. I'm a big fan now... Keep going...
I real man wt a tru heart.
How is it that all of these big time college QB nfl prospects all are good looking - literally every one of them
Baker, burrow, darnold, rudolph etc
@@sunnyw2148 I remember actually hearing somebody talk about basically this same topic "why are almost all QBs good looking?" And they brought up an interesting idea. The theory is basically that it starts at a very young age (like backyard football age), the good looking kids are usually the most popular, and the most popular kids are usually the ones that other kids choose to play QB in the backyard or whenever they start playing Pop Warner football and it just kind of sticks with them b/c they have the most practice and in-game experience at it.
Geaux Joe...
Now that’s a Quarterback...
Last person to talk nationally about the poverty of Southeast Ohio was JFK
Forget the political jibes... let’s embrace a good event is happening in that area....
So many talking heads on sports shows are doing commentary about Burrows that even with a Heisman they question if he will be a successful NFL QB. Well the Heisman is great and the NFL would be great for him but Joe Burrows is obviously successful without those things. He has used his celebrity not to complain or just party or just gain more appearences (money!) He has used it to truly help people. Keep it up Joe. . . put that food bank out of business !
JB is an example for all. Work hard, lead and once you succeed - have humility, empathy and remember your roots.
Joe's great football player But greater young man.
3:26 why is there a case of Budweiser at the food bank?
Probably just a reused box
So they can have a beer while they watched him demolish Clemson?
Ask a stupid ques, expect stupid answers...THIS BUD IS FOR YOU😁
Who cares? Did you see the bags and the shelves filled with food? And Yes, I did notice the Budweiser. But she wasn't putting that in anything.
I love southern Ohio
Tuas my cousin.. but Burrow is my quarterback
I love it
Show this to everyone who calls sport "just a game"
Pass it forward.
Headline is misspelled -- should be "effected positive change" as in helped cause positive change, as opposed to "affected" (influenced positive change).
Awesome!
Give Back!
Hopefully, instead of donating more money and food to the area, businesses can open up factories, stores and trade schools allowing people to become self-reliant. Give a man a fish feed him for a day. Teach a man how to fish feed him for life.
❤
Why does a food bank have cases of Budweiser?
Chris Lundie because everyone needs a beer every now and again.
Am I the only one that saw beer at food pantry 3:27
If your poor you need beer more than anything.
Who does Joe Burrow know at Mississippi State???? Would be interesting to know!
What's everybody think about that dudes sweater?
I never heard this speech. This is incredible. All the right stuff. All the right stuff! I'm a Georgia fan who was a victim of his passion. I can honestly say God works in an incredible way. I'm thankful due to this acknowledgement from a humble kid on top of the world regarding something so vastly important that all adults should feel ashamed. Always pulling for him now. As regards Greek mythology, for just a moment, he was Atlas and he chose to lift the world.
I'ma get a house in south east Ohio. Bet I can get one cheap
Depends where you get one honestly. I live in southeast ohio and its mostly not like that. It honestly just depends on which county your in
Youngstown Ohio here. That’s northeast. I don’t think more free stuff is the answer though it’s a nice thought. People in these areas rarely have a representative in government. If they do they are called racists and bigot. These people need work and education or at least some representation in government. Sympathy and free stuff is thoughtful but not the right way to effect change of any kind. Joes words are more important than your free canned goods. These people just want a voice and an opportunity.
I can only wish that all of he college athletes are like this , but they are not , many are just thugs becoming stars because of what they do on the field , nothing of what they do off the field , good for you Joe , you are a great role model.
Don’t go to the bengals idc if it’s ur hometown. Go to a team that can win games
I hope Joe leads the Bengals to a Super Bowl just as he led the Bayou Bengals to the promised land Natty! Geaux Joe!!
Republicans are you listening ?
Republicans give more than the democrats. It's cities and town ran by democrats that have the highest levels of poverty.
Vote Conservative next time...especially now.
