ESPN's Pete Thamel reports that Arizona State transfer quarterback Sam Leavitt is expected to sign with LSU.

Leavitt recently visited Kentucky, LSU, Tennessee, and Miami.

The 6-2, 205-pound quarterback from West Linn, Oregon, played in seven games this past season before suffering a season-ending injury on Oct. 25 against Houston. During those seven games, Leavitt passed for 1,628 yards, ten touchdowns, and three interceptions.

During his redshirt freshman season last year, Leavitt led the Sun Devils to a Big 12 Championship and CFP playoff birth. He passed for 2,885 yards with 24 touchdowns and six interceptions in 2024. He also rushed for 443 yards with five rushing touchdowns.

Leavitt began his college career at Michigan State but only played in four games as a true freshman in 2023.

I hope Pete is correct and Sam Leavitt does sign with LSU. LSU should be moving up in the portal rankings.

It feels a lot better to have 2 QB's instead of none. Thanks for reconnecting with this guy, Lane. Now, go get us some more OL!

Nobody’s expecting a natty from Kiffin right out the gate. Anyone who is, is setting themselves up for disappointment.

Oh, no! What will all the media people who've been saying things like "Lane Kiffin has made himself public enemy number 1, and he'll pay for it" say now? It was the same sky screaming when people insisted that Kiffin, himself, would not come to LSU because Jeff Landry had supposedly made LSU toxic. Maybe people should just stop pretending to know things, and just report actual news.
