'26 ASU Transfer QB Sam Leavitt (LSU)

[Garren04]

I mean just go and offer Ty 7 million and then we get to beat the hell out of LSU next year with Leavitt

We’re going to end up with a dedicated donation cup at your local Petros to pay the 7 million back.

If Leavitt says no..could still do that.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Why he really really want a four million dollar QB with a bum foot?

No clue.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

So is there some mystery booster that’s shown up and opened up his checkbook? Adidas maybe?

 

[BigSteve09]

what are we doing?

 

[MOOOOONEY]

I wonder if Adidas is helping somehow in this...since Sam is a Adidas Rep..just a idea

Rumor of a donor paying the bill.

 

[TrippieRedd]

what are we doing?

On the toilet.


What about you?

 

[Blake25p]

We complain about not spending then we complain about spending money

Ty is going to the NFL. 7 Million doesn't even touch a fully guaranteed first round contract. The 32nd overall(last pick of the draft) pick last year signed a fully guaranteed 14.7 million deal. The money will be even higher this year as it goes up each year with the salary cap and Ty likely goes a good deal higher than 32. The 16th overall pick got 19.3 million, #1 overall got 48.7.

I could be crazy but it seems we are still trying to swing in Leavitt.

He meant 7mil per year on a deferred NIL contract.

Pay him till he’s 75.

Wasnt there rumors about certain boosters willing to spend for Ty, Maybe Heupel convinced them to spend on Leavitt?

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

It really will be interesting to see what happens if we dont get Leavitt. If the rumors are true that we're willing to go this high, surely there is someone really good we could walk in to the portal or lure Ty back.

 

[1world1love]

Guy doesnt have many followers. If true, a part of me loves it, just pissing off LSU. No, college player is worth that much.

No way this is true. If it is, somebody needs firing.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

We complain about not spending then we complain about spending money

The issue here is the injury concern.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Right? If a dude wants to throw around 7 million we should have thrown it at Sorsby lol

I would make Ty say no.

Rumor is that the wife is a former Vols cheerleader.

Her husband and her own land in East Tennessee.

Donor once wore an orange tie on a Monday night.

It's not your money, why should you care.?.

 

[Go Fight Win]

Can’t say this isn’t entertaining

Silly season is a new beast these days lol

Remember Drew Richmond? Ain’t **** compared to this

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Wasnt there rumors about certain boosters willing to spend for Ty, Maybe Heupel convinced them to spend on Leavitt?

Maybe. Who knows? But if we are offering 6.5-7 million for Leavitt, I hope it doesn’t hamper us in getting the other defensive players we need. Because we still need quite a few guys.

A few things:
1) I honestly could care less about getting Leavitt, but would love to make Lane look like a schmuck.
2) TN is actually spending money! How many times have we complained about us looking like cheap skates?
3) I love the fact that Heupel isn’t quitting. That makes me happy and tells me that this man wants to win the championship at all costs!
