Hey, would you elaborate on this? I mean, presumably the coaches saw potential for him to develop in a pro-style system...

Oh, yeah, he played in this really primitive offense. Basically the Wing-T, so about as different as you can be. But he has superb tools. My guess is the risk/reward profile was really enticing for the coaches. To clarify, what I meant is that it's difficult for Burns to be ready right now. I'd feel more confident in a hypothetical redshirt frosh Keller Chryst for this specific purpose.

Hey don't knock it. Sean Payton couldn't stop it.
