Arizona State transfer Sam Leavitt was the ultimate big fish in this year’s transfer portal. Kentucky made a strong push early for the star quarterback. That changed when Leavitt locked in a visit to LSU and the Cats pivoted directly to Notre Dame transfer Kenny Minchey. However, the Tigers didn’t close the deal because modern college football happened.
During his visit to LSU, news broke that Washington quarterback Demond Williams was entering the portal and that LSU was considered a major contender to land the Big Ten transfer.
