Sam Leavitt's transfer from Arizona State to LSU did not go over well with some ASU fans. Neither did recent comments from the LSU quarterback.Leavitt addressed his transfer from Arizona State to LSU in recent comments, saying that LSU is "just different" from ASU.Its funny, thats kind of what everyones saying around here, Its just different,' Leavitt saidat a recent LSU football event. It really is in every aspect. You come out here to the practices, the way individual reps are ran, you know the way that every single coach is just so poured into this, the time that we meet outside the facility, outside of like the initial time were supposed to meet it truly is just a different situation. You talk about being a pro, trying to become the best version of yourself, and theres no other place to do it, other than here.Every single day I walk into the facility, and I see Whit (linebacker Whit Weeks), Ty Benefield, all these dudes. And youve got to go against them every single day. Some pretty good players to play.Added Leavitt: Just looking back at my process, you know I think, leaving ASU, you know, I had a comfortable situation. Walking into the building, I saw my guys, built great relationships, won a lot of games there. But I wanted to do something a little bit different, you know.Related: LSU coach Lane Kiffin compares former ASU QB to NFL starterHow social media reacted to Sam Leavitt's commentsSome on social media did not react kindly to Leavitt's comments, which they took as a shot at Arizona State.Hes a tool. He could have just said that its a great opportunity to showcase his skills on the biggest stage but he had to throw shade. Damer (@thedamer) July 31, 2026Sorry Im confused, is he trying to say he DIDNT have pro talent around him?

He left for money and thats it. I dont hold it against him but thats it, $$ Jeffrey Coyle (@PT42JC) July 31, 2026What a tool. Kenny uplifted Sam and ASU elevated him. If you read this know this. Gratitude and humility is earned and he is denigrating his growth by not respecting his past.
