Sam Leavitt Gets Huge Warning as LSU HC Lane Kiffin Lands QB

LSU Tigers head football coach Lane Kiffin has secured former Arizona State Sun Devils quarterback Sam Leavitt for the 2026 season, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel. This acquisition is part of Kiffin's effort to rejuvenate the Tigers following the tenure of Brian Kelly. Leavitt, who has experience in the College Football Playoff, is expected to bolster the team's offense. However, concerns have been raised about LSU's offensive line, with On3’s J.D. PicKell cautioning about its performance in the previous season and suggesting Leavitt may need to rely on his mobility.

Leavitt's commitment to LSU comes after considering offers from Kentucky, Tennessee, and Miami. He has two years of eligibility remaining. His past performance includes leading Arizona State to a Big 12 championship and a College Football Playoff appearance in 2024, with impressive stats of 2,885 passing yards, 24 touchdowns, and 442 rushing yards.
