Since Joe Burrow announced his intention to transfer from Ohio State on May 8, the college football world has been eagerly awaiting a decision on where the quarterback will land. According to a report released on Tuesday, a decision from the Burrow camp could be coming soon.

According to Sean Callahan of Husker Online, Burrow will visit North Carolina this week and an announcement could come as soon as the end of the week.

"Ohio State grad transfer QB Joe Burrow has visited both Cincinnati and LSU this past week," Callahan tweeted. "Look for his third and final visit this week to be to North Carolina. I expect an announcement by possibly the end of this week from Burrow."

Last week, Burrow visited both Cincinnati and LSU. Following his visit to North Carolina, Burrow will make the decision about where he will play out the remainder of his college football career. Burrow is in a unique situation after graduating from Ohio State in three years. He will now have two seasons of eligibility remaining at whichever program he ends up playing for and can play immediately as a graduate transfer.

LSU has three quarterbacks on the roster vying for the starting job after the departure of Danny Etling, who was drafted by the New England Patriots in the seventh round of this spring's NFL Draft. There was no clear winner for the Tigers at quarterback coming out of spring practices, leaving the door open for someone like Burrow to come in and start. Justin McMillan is the veteran quarterback while Myles Brennan is a pocket passer that got experience last year. Lowell Narcisse brings plenty of athleticism but needs to work on his accuracy and consistency.

The Bearcats return quarterback Hayden Moore, who completed 239 of his 424 pass attempts for 2,562 yards and 20 touchdowns to nine interceptions. Cincinnati also has sophomore Jake Sopko and freshmen Ben Bryant and Desmond Ridder that Burrow would have to beat out to win the starting job.

For the Tar Heels, redshirt sophomore Chazz Surratt returns after throwing 1,342 yards, eight touchdowns and three interceptions in 2017. Junior Nathan Elliott also attempted 146 passes, completing 75 for 925 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions. Those two are the main contenders for the UNC starting quarterback job. If he ends up at North Carolina, Burrow will see a familiar face in running back Antonio Williams, who transferred from Ohio State earlier this offseason.

The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Burrow was ranked as the No. 8 dual-threat quarterback and the No. 280 overall prospect nationally in the 2015 class, per the 247Sports Composite. As a senior in 2014, Burrow won the Ohio Mr. Football Award and led Athens High School to the Division-III state championship game. During his three seasons at Ohio State, Burrow played in nine games, completing 71.1 percent of his passes for two touchdowns.

Burrow was the clear backup to Buckeye starter J.T. Barrett in 2016, playing in five games. Heading into the 2017 season, Burrow was in a battle to be Barrett's backup with redshirt freshman Dwayne Haskins. A broken finger that required surgery in the preseason forced Burrow to miss time, effectively giving the job to Haskins to start the year. The two continued the battle, this time to be the starter, in the spring, but following those 15 practices, Burrow made his mind up to finish his career elsewhere.
