Joe Burrow shares hilarious recruiting story involving Ed Orgeron’s love of crawfish

LSU coach Ed Orgeron recruits at a national level, so he’s sometimes in areas that don’t share his affinity for Cajun-style food.
That was the case during his recruitment of star QB Joe Burrow, who transferred to LSU two years ago from Ohio State.
This week, Burrow shared a great story about a restaurant not having crawfish, prompting Coach O to have the manager go get 15 pounds of crawfish to cook for the group:
Joe Burrow said that during his recruitment, he went out to dinner with Ed Orgeron. When they got to the restaurant, Orgeron found out they didn’t serve crawfish. So Orgeron had the restaurant manager go out and get 15 lbs of crawfish and cook it for them anyway. That’s peak O.

If that story isn’t peak Coach O, I don’t know what is. The man knows what he wants and isn’t afraid to go get it.
That’s true when it comes to crawfish, and it’s also true when it comes to quarterbacks like Burrow.
