I've been able to glean a little more info on Leavitt's decision to leave MSU.
During Monday's meeting with Smith, Smith told Leavitt that he wanted him to stay and compete. Leavitt asked him what he thought of his film from this season. When Smith said he hadn't had time to watch it yet, Leavitt got frustrated and walked out.
Leavitt definitely has value in this transfer portal era. He is an elite athlete who can run and throw. Barnett let him play just enough this year to whet the appetite of suitors. His appearances at MSU, however brief, definitely caught the attention of scouts, schools, and agencies.
Speaking of agents, I'm hearing that Leavitt is looking at schools including Nebraska, Kentucky, and Utah and that his NIL value might be approaching 7 figures at the right place.
That is also what it will take to get a top tier QB at MSU.
