Coming from southeast Ohio it's a very impoverished area and the poverty rate is almost two times the national average. There's so many people there that don't have a lot and I'm up here for all those kids in Athens and Athens County that go home to not a lot of food on the table, hungry after school. You guys can be up here, too.

Additional quotes by Joe Burrow

So thank you to everyone, everyone here. There's so many people that I should thank and unfortunately, I just don't have the time, but those people know what they mean to me and my family. So when I lift this trophy again it's for LSU, Ohio State, southeast Ohio and all of Louisiana. Thank you.

I'm not into the whole politics thing. I'm passionate about what I believe in. To me, that's racial inequality. Socioeconomic inequality. To me, that's not politics, it's human rights. It's giving the same opportunities to people regardless of their skin color or social status. Whether it's racial or socioeconomic or just people out there not given the same opportunities, I think being in our position it's our responsibility to help those kinds of people.
