Joe Burrow is transferring from Ohio State, and the graduate transfer market just got a lot more interesting.

The former four-star quarterback and longtime Buckeye backup is transferring from Ohio State with two years of remaining eligibility. He will be an immensely popular name for teams looking to fill a quarterback hole on their roster. Burrow’s sample size is limited, but he’s a career 74.4 percent passer and has drawn rave reviews in Columbus for a while now. The former No. 8 dual-threat QB in the 2015 247Sports Composite is mobile, accurate and an ideal fit for any team with a spread-style system.

With that in mind, here are six potential destinations (plus a bonus school or two) that make sense for Burrow on the open market — and please keep in mind a team's inclusion does not mean there's known reciprocal interest.

Florida

Burrow is leaving Ohio State and head coach Urban Meyer, so wouldn’t it make plenty of sense for Burrow to land with a Meyer protégé? Now, don’t expect Meyer to guide Burrow to Dan Mullen or anything. But it’s worth nothing that Mullen runs a very similar power spread scheme to what Burrow’s worked under at Ohio State for the last three years.

Oh ... and, yeah — the Gators desperately need a quarterback to emerge.

Florida hasn’t had a true answer at the position since Tim Tebow – back when Meyer ran the show – and Mullen is still looking after his initial spring run. Incumbent starter Feleipe Franks is an option, but he’s also coming off a freshman season in which he completed just 54.6 percent of his passes. Franks was pushed all spring by Kyle Trask, who did not actually start in high school.

Florida is going to be a popular name on these lists. Mullen is certainly aware of those rumors, but downplaying them.

"This year? I don't know," Mullen said Monday. "I don't think we'll take one."

Iowa State

It was another staff ago, but Iowa State was once a runner-up for Burrow during the recruiting process, before Ohio State came along and offered. The fact that Burrow had a family connection to Ames (his dad, Jimmy, was an assistant at ISU for eight years) was enough to get a struggling Iowa State program in the door back then; with the Cyclones building off an 8-5 season in 2017 under promising coach Matt Campbell, an Ohio guy himself, there should be even more interest on Burrow’s end this time around.

The Cyclones like what they have in the QB room with senior starter Kyle Kempt and coming up the ranks are Zeb Noland, Brock Purdy and Re’Al Mitchell, but Burrow would raise ISU’s ceiling. With him, there are pieces in place to make a run at a Big 12 Championship, believe it or not.

Nebraska

This will be another popular potential landing spot due to family history. Burrow’s dad, Jimmy, was formerly an assistant coach at Nebraska. His brothers, Jamie and Dan, both played at Nebraska. The Cornhuskers also, potentially, have a need under center with a reasonably wide open quarterback battle. That said, the Huskers have a new coaching staff and I know they’re in love with true freshman quarterback Adrian Martinez, who had an impressive spring showing.

UCLA

Might Burrow head west, where his skillset would be a natural fit for new Bruins head coach Chip Kelly? There’s no clear quarterback answer on the roster right now to replace Josh Rosen. Devon Modster started two games and played well in the Cactus Bowl. Michigan transfer Wilton Speight is already on the roster, arriving this summer to compete for the job (rivalry!) Burrow is a much, much, much better fit for Kelly’s offense than the statuesque Speight. True freshman Dorian Thompson-Robinson is talented but might not be ready. If winning now is a huge factor for Burrow, he’d probably know the Bruins are entering a likely rebuilding process.

Texas

There are a few reasons this move would make sense. First, the Longhorns — despite having two good options in Sam Ehlinger and Shane Buechele — are not quite set at the quarterback position. And then there’s the fact that coach Tom Herman (and offensive coordinator Tim Beck) recruited Burrow to Ohio State during the 2015 cycle. That’s huge. But there’s no word just yet on whether Texas would even be open to taking Burrow. Ehlinger, a sophomore, and Buechele, a junior, already have starting experience and want to play. Bringing in Burrow might mean losing both.

LSU

The Tigers have been seemingly looking for a quarterback for half a decade now, and that hasn’t changed much following spring practice. Sophomore Myles Brennan was the widely presumed successor to Danny Etling, but Ed Orgeron declared LSU’s QB race “dead even” following the spring game. In fact, junior Justin McMillan really turned some heads in Baton Rouge over the team’s 15 spring practices. But Year 2 will be a critical one for Orgeron and company, and if Burrow could potentially improve your offense, can you really say no?

Other Potential Options

Two Group of Five schools to keep a close eye on are Cincinnati and Ohio. The Bearcats are coached by former Ohio State assistant Luke Fickell, and they’re in need of a steady option under center. The Bobcats, for their part, are a home away from home for Burrow. His dad is the school’s defensive coordinator, and while Nathan Rourke returns as the starting QB, there’s no doubt Burrow could upgrade the quarterback room from a natural talent perspective.
