The thing I'm curious about this season is his health. Most college QBs are either fighter pilots or bus drivers and Leavitt is the face of the fighter pilot group. Fun playstyle, but will he be able to hold up for 9 games in the SEC?

This for sure … style of play will take some big shots on the body

Per a source in the building in Tempe… the older brother needs to stay out of the way. He’s not helping Sam, and led to soured relationships with the ASU staff 

What is his brothers role at the school?

He can be a real pain in the butt with Kiffin.  He was a frosh against us while missing his top WR.  He competed as a frosh in a big game.  That’s a big deal.  I think a J Daniels type season is in the cards.

The guy is elusive as hell based on our inability to corral him in that crazy playoff game.

What are we talking about? Leavitt hugged ass. Your source at ASU led you astray, Gerry. He sucks. End of story. Wake up.

@harveycmd Leavitt doesn’t have that mamba mentality

His mentality is he's great despite the fact he can't do anything on his own. 

How much did Skattebo enhance Leavitt?

He will be extremely productive, Kiffen always has a top 10 offense. Hopefully Sark will finally have one at Texas.

Agreed.  Kiffin will have him playing QB well enough to have a top 10 offense at LSU.  As much good as Sark has done at Texas, he has not had an elite offense so far during his tenure.

Leavitt splits opinion more than every QB in CFB

Well, definitely recovered from foot injury that required surgery

 

Not sure i want my qb doing stuff like this after just recovering from a foot injury.  But nobody ever claimed lsu and leavitt were smart.

The degree of separation between a degree from ASU and LSU is measured in microns

Do you think Leavitt will be one of the quarterbacks in the SEC this year?

I 100% think that he will be one of the quarterbacks in the SEC this year.

Haha. Nah. 

But he's a dangerous QB in CFB ... 34 TD's vs. 9 INT's with 750+ rushing yards and a 16-4 record as a starting QB is a very good in CFB. 

Will be interesting to see what he looks like for Kiffin, but also making jump into an SEC schedule.

 

 

2 sides to this. 
 

yes he put up good numbers and can make plays. So he will most likely do well under Kiffin cause Kiffin’s offenses score points. 
 

but how Sam does week I. And week out verses SEC defenses will be the flip side of how interesting this will be to watch. Can’t think he has as much wiggle room to rely on “just making plays” against the defenses he will see this year. 

Glazing over an average at best QB here now, Huh?

We get it you are in love with him Gerry he is still a fraud QB and that’s ok 

@harveycmd Gerry and I both think Sam will rewrite the LSU record book for a quarterback in a single season. We’ll take on all comers for any bet. @Gerry Hamilton says no amount of money is too small (he’s the money, I’m the mouth behind this operation). We ain’t scared (Monopoly money talks).

Arizona State fans are glad Leavitt is gone. I think Gerry latched on to some weird take on Leavitt and won't let it go.

As an Arizona local and ASU grad: They feel like a lover scorned. Cam and Sam made them happier than they've ever been, then he spent a year telling them they were beneath him, then he left them for a rich girl. So, they wish the kids well and thank him for the good times, but also they hope he gets benched, loses his job, and gets replaced by a younger, better looking QB. 5 star talent with a 1 star heart

I think that is why Kiffin brought in 3 good transfer QBs as he knows he'll probably need the competition and depth at that position.

How quickly people forget he almost singlehandedly led ASU to beat us. 

We forget it because it didn't happen. The guy that almost singlehandedly led ASU to beat us was Cam Skattebo. Sam Leavitt was just the trusty sidekick that kept them on schedule by avoiding sacks and extending plays but that game was the Cam Skattebo show. 

leavitt threw for 34 td 9 interceptions in 1 1/2 years.  16 -4 record almost beat tx in playoffs.and thats with asu who rarely has had a good team. hes not bad and with kiffin stats will go up. too bad they didnt get sorsby who was money whipped i bet

He isn’t much of a passer though. In the playoff game against us, the thing he was best at was running 40 yards behind the line of scrimmage and not getting sacked. The best pass of the game came for ASU from that d-bag Skattebo. Leavitt is just slippery but that’s better served at a position that doesn’t command the ball or decision making/accuracy.
