Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

[Ohioskins]

But there are no pro teams in West Virginia. Culturally Athens County is closer to Cincinnati in its "small town" feel. The people from Athens switched their allegiance to LSU when Joe played there. They will have no trouble becoming Bengals fans. By contrast, people from Columbus will not become Bengals fans if Young was drafted by the Bengals. If Columbus fans heard Chase was going to Cincy the vast majority of them would hold a funeral for him.

Ahhh ... I gotcha. I was wondering your angle. Thinking that it could have been Burrow NOT wanting to play in Cincy. By all accounts I've seen, he's fine with it.

All you say makes sense to me.
