Sam Leavitt To Sign With Lane Kiffin & LSU

[Steve44]

reinvest the QB money on whatever high end DLine and OffLine is left. We can still win with dominant LOS play. Give the Missouri Edge whatever he wants.

Ok that is very very different. Pete gets worried as rapidly as he gets exuberant. Means nothing. Thanks for clarifying

Pete has valid concerns with this kid lol. He’s something else . I still think it’s Miami but I don’t trust him . @ghamdi has some legit critiques.

I'm honestly shocked at some of you. Mario isn't going to walk into next season with Emory or one of the puppies as the starting QB. Things may not happen on the timeline YOU want....but I can almost guarantee you we're going to end up with a quality QB.

Let it play out and enjoy the ride.

Don't be so sure, nothing is certain except death. We were fortunate the last two seasons to get our guy and the drama with Cam was down to the wire. Mario needs to reevaluate the speed at which he moves for these portal QBs.

@Ghandi has very valid criticisms

Then why are they potentially taking Longstreet?

They don’t currently have a scholarship QBs. They need more than one.

We're playing for the natty in a week doing things his way. With all due respect he doesn't need to reevaluate ****. Landing a good QB in the portal is ABSOLUTELY the way to go. You're not even arguing with me at this point, you're arguing with history, statistics, and results. All FOUR teams in the final 4 this year have portal QB's. The last THREE national champions all won their title with a portal QB.

If you can't handle it, stay off the boards for a week or two. I can assure you....we'll make a splash.

No problem. Context is important.

They’re trending for the Elon transfer too

 

[MumbleRap]

Canes playing for a natty, Cam went 1:1, and now Carson redemption story.

Imo landing a QB is the least of our worries, that will be easy. Im more worried about replacing 3 NFL OL, including potentially two 1st rounders at tackle.

Who would we have landed had Mario ‘moved quicker’ as you describe

Sounds like the ultimate high risk high reward type of player.

Hey dude, I'll post whenever I want, nobody said we won't get our guy, my point was don't be so certain, nothing is guaranteed as you alluded to.

I wouldn’t think the kid is transferring from a school because he doesn’t want to be a backup to another school the be their backup.

Hey dude, you waking up tomorrow isn't guaranteed. If you're looking for absolutes and guarantees you're gonna spend your life disappointed. Signing a QB earlier in the portal window doesn't offer any sort of guarantee. Signing the #1 QB out of high school doesn't offer any sort of guarantee.

Let's play a game called what's more likely to happen... the same guy who's hit big on a portal QB in the last two cycles and now has us in a natty after 25 years of misery not having a plan with a backup seems like a bad bet.

It would be a waste to throw a 4+ million bag at Leavitt just to attempt to squeeze out 10 wins next year (especially with his added injury concerns). Take a chance on the young guys at QB, and make sure to keep Toney locked in for 2026 and 2027. It was worth risking it with Beck this year since we had a roster that could compete, but next year we return almost no production outside of RB/DB/Toney.

Starting Emory next season would be a waste though. You have to start Nickel/Coleman and see what you have there, and that will guide the portal decision for the 2027 season. Going 8-4/9-3 with Emory vs 6-6/7-5 with Nickel for example does nothing for you.

The most disappointing thing so far this portal cycle has been the failure to get Perich and Biles, we really should have went all in on those two (and maybe we did but whiffed, hard to tell). This is lining up very similar to when UM basketball made the Final 4 and then couldn't capitalize.
