Yeah, let's give a guy who may never play again because of a Lisfranc injury, $6-7 million dollars.

How about NO. If you going to give him 7m on an injury you do not know the timetable on then you pay Washington 4m then give Demond his 4m'ish.

Let me be clear in no way am in saying that this is even an option. That's how asinine your comment was.

He has one good foot, and you want to pay that type of money. With our bad luck he may not play this season.

Lane's gonna find the next Burrow or Chambliss. Even if LSU settles for plan B this year, long term I'm not worried about the QB position. And Plan B under Kiffin will be better than Plan A+ under Kelly and Sloan.

I'd like to sign Leavitt if we can but I trust LK's judgment. We don't know how his injury will affect his future performance and frankly, I'm not sure about his attitude. Lots of pictures at the game where you could tell Lane was annoyed and the kid was on his phone, not being present. It's an interview, for goodness sake. If I were interviewing a promising college kid for a very important job and he kept scrolling his phone that would tick me off. It was also troubling to see that he may have acted similarly at UT.

Now, Leavitt can remedy that but I don't know if he will.

There are other QBs to be had.

We don't. Might make more sense to go with an underclassman and make it a rebuilding year

Agreed, just outbid and get him to sign at LSU.


And what if he's still hurt and can't play? Something is definitely fishy about his whole tour he has going on..

Please no, that would be a boneheaded move equivalent to hiring BK.

Only if he has at least a 85% probability of being able to start the season. Otherwise, I would not have an issue with backloading his NIL to match his availability AND performance.



there's no way he signs something like that, and I don' t even think that's allowed.

spend 7 max on all 3 qb you sign. No one in the portal is worth 7 million alone. Leavitt will just be reinjured and LSU will probably sign a contract that he gets paid even if he is injured. So he sits out the LSU season, gets 7 million and then declares for the draft. This guy is a taker and not a player LSU wants any part of. No Leavitt!!

He doesn't. LSU "fans" better prepare for a 7-5, 8-4 season while Lane builds a roster. Yes, it could be better, but this could be worse case scenario. If Leavitt has 2 years left, then fine, but if he is one and done, no.
