Monday morning delivered a gut punch for Tennessee fans, as Sam Leavitt officially chose LSU over the Vols. The former Michigan State and Arizona State quarterback was clearly Josh Heupel’s top, and really only, quarterback target in this Transfer Portal cycle, making the news sting even more in Knoxville.
Yes, the Vols did bring in Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula for a visit, but the main focus has always been Leavitt. Despite not landing Leavitt, Tennessee is still pursuing the talented quarterback. Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports reports that Tennessee hasn't given up and is still pushing for Sam Leavitt.
