'26 ASU Transfer QB Sam Leavitt (LSU)

[Checker_the_Shire]

Well unless they give the keys to G Mac or Brandon then they have to spend the money. Sam can lead us to playoffs. Missouri QB no chance

I’m not a fan of the Mizzou QB either, but I have a lot of faith in what Heupel can do with his QBs. So if Heupel likes that kid and we can get him for less than $6M, I’m not 100% against it.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

i dont care what they spend on him as long as they keep spending on the defense and another OL.



Pay him whatever if thats what they wanna do

Leavitt and his team played this all perfectly. Wait till all the QBs are snatched up in the portal then let the few big money schools left who are desperate for a QB get into a bidding war for your services.

Kid is going to end up with a monster deal.

 

[Checker_the_Shire]

Numerous insiders said that we have a separate budget for QB where others will step in, so i don’t think money should be a problem for us? then again who knows

I’ve read that too. I’d love to know what that number is.

Leavitt vs Ms St 10/22 82 yards
Joey vs Ms St. 24/40 335 yards

Overhyped

Or they all move on and the price goes down. But likely the price will be inflated.

 

[BleedOrange16]

This is all my opnion… but I think we are firmly in the middle of this right now despite our MODs not sharing more. If we weren’t, I think we’d see more traction and news with the Pribula caliber of QBs in this class.

 

[Exiled]

The longer this goes on, the more I’m becoming a Pribula fan.

 

[BigOrangeVolFan]

It sounds like a bidding war is ongoing

At the end of the day, if it makes sense, and Leavitt is who we have zeroed in on at QB, he will ultimately be ours. Tennessee has shown this time around that they are willing to play ball, and will spend big for a player they truly want. Plus, you have to take into account which situation benefits Leavitt most? I’d venture to say Tennessee, hands down, even bias aside. We have 2 upper echelon SEC WRs at our disposal, and a plug & play freshman in Tristen Keys. Not to mention a hell of a pass catching TE in Ethan Davis. Given how QB friendly of a system we run, I feel pretty good about our chances as long as the money is right. If you fail on locking down Leavitt, then I believe you have to look at guys you can “walk” into the portal. Heupel can’t afford to go into such a pivotal season with the brutal schedule we have with a QB like Pribula. Not saying Pribula isn’t capable of putting up better numbers in a Heupel offense, but he has major deficiencies in the down field passing department that I don’t think can be fixed in less than a year.

Pribula can hit a wide open deep ball. He would be fine.

If the offer is going that high I’d offer it to Ty.

Ty is going pro

[SugarCC]

Great minds think alike

If boosters are picking up the tab for a QB, separate from all other NIL, as has been said, by all means.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Ty is going pro

Not if a ridiculously high offer is made. Would make more sense for him to come back and take that 6 and work towards getting drafted even higher next year.

Yep, its why a favorable ruling on Joey helps us. Because then we can make a choice on what makes more sense to us.

 

[CamVol8]

I’m curious if our offer is in the 4 million range, would we have the other boosters step in and help/outbid

 

[I40VOL]

If we are handing out 5-6 million, I go to Ty and make him tell us no, may have already but I’d up that offer again

 

[cncchris33]

Personally I’m a no. $6 million is a lot and I’d much rather spread that around to other guys. But I also don’t know what our budget is on a QB right now.

Allegedly, there is an angel booster willing to front the money for a QB outside of the existing budget, so whatever is spent on Leavitt (or any other QB) wouldn't theoretically limit what we can spend on other portal targets.

 

[Sandman Vol]

I can’t imagine this guy is Lane’s starter.

Their plan B. I’m sure Lanes used to that with his history of coed girlfriends.

I’d rather bring Joey back Chad powers style. Jerry Swaguilaro

This.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

He's gonna be at 6 mil imo

No way is Leavitt worth $6 million

Dart got an $8.9 mill signing bonus as the #25 pick last year. Plus $4 mill a year for 4 yrs.(there about)

Seriously??????????
