Leavitt to LSU

[AlsaceFreak]

I would feel better if we were in a peeing contest for Ty Simpson

Just roll with George and Brandon.

Dear Lord.

Well it could be worse we could sign a QB from Ferris State.

Or even worse New Mexico State.

I say offer him something so stupid high, just to make LSU match it. Otherwise, they’ve got egg on the face and no QB who was “committed” like 2 hours ago……

And if they don't match it? We pay him and play him?

Yep!

Ask A&M how that worked out with Jimbo. Spending a ton of money is not the only way to win in cfb. Indiana is doing what they’re doing largely because they’re a veteran team that’s well coached. And it’s not like UT isn’t spending a ton of money. If Lane comes out and wins 5-6 games next season they’ll be calling for his head too. They’ve set up the expectation that huge money = success no matter what. Thats not always the case.

I agree, but it’s what they’re doing at LSU. Word is they gave Leavitt 5 million which is insane. I mean, im not gonna lie, I hope it’s a colossal failure for Kiffin.

Everyone needs to calm down. Mac will do fine here. We will sign a lower
tier qb for competition and be fine with our top 15 defense.

People were saying just roll with Merk and GMac or I'm Team Merk after the Nico fiasco.
Now all you hear is Merk sucks

Had a QB commit already (granted, should be a backup, but it worked out with Chambliss).

Rumor is TN made him a 5 Million dollar offer. Looks like LSU payed him 6.5 Million. No thank you. That's an insane amount for someone coming off a foot injury like his.

Oh, so they did what I suggested lol

[ftsandersvol]

There is an article out saying we are still pursuing Leavitt even though he has signed with LSU. For God sakes man, have some dignity.

 

[dduncan4163]

Apparently it's not over yet.

Hilarious that Kiffin & corn dogs paid that ridiculous amount. Now, let GMAC roll with it!

[dduncan4163]

Looks like some big money at TN really wants to stick it to Kiffin.

Never piss off a billionaire I suppose

 

[CAVPUT]

Why?

Might not have a choice? It's possible.

 

[orangemadam]

This is a business. Don't be upset with Kiffin, he's a shrewd dealer, maybe a little like Trump(?)
He does what he has to do. I know his antics aggravates VN but it's all about winning.

 

[dduncan4163]

Heup must really believe this kid is the one.

This bidding war may be more than business. Sounds to me this is personal for one of our big money boosters.

Have fun with that

 

[volfanstuckinga]

F him. Time to move on and roll with Gmac

You say this until he doesn't deliver next year.....then you'll wish we had an experienced QB on the roster

Another QB might come out now seeing these high $$$ QB offers emerging. Between this story and the Miami offer to Ty Simpson, there are some crazy numbers being thrown around.
