LSU Football: Whit Weeks, Trey’Dez Green And TJ Dottery Will Be At SEC Media Days, But No Sam Leavitt?

By GLENN GUILBEAU, Tiger Rag Editor

No, Sam Leavitt at SEC Media Days, LSU?

Really.

Well, Tiger Rag went 1-for-3 in its selections for LSU players who should be interviewed at Southeastern Conference Media Days next week in Tampa.

LSU and coach Lane Kiffin will not be bringing Leavitt, the Tigers’ new quarterback and Tiger Rag’s top selection who was only the No. 1 portal player in the country when he signed with LSU out of Arizona State last January. He also only plays the most important position in the game.

Texas, by the way, is bringing its starting quarterback – Arch Manning. Texas knows how the game is played.

And LSU will not be bringing the No. 1 offensive tackle in the portal in Jordan Seaton, who signed with the Tigers last January as the No. 4 player in the portal from Colorado and was a selection by Tiger Rag.

But LSU will be bringing Tiger Rag selection Whit Weeks, one of the top returning linebackers in the SEC and boyfriend of LSU coach Lane Kiffin’s daughter Landry.

The other two players LSU will be bringing to Tampa with Kiffin are Trey’Dez Green, one of the top returning tight ends in the nation, and transfer linebacker TJ Dottery, the No. 13 linebacker in the portal from Ole Miss.

Kiffin and the Tigers will meet the media on Thursday morning, July 23, at the Marriott Water Street hotel in downtown Tampa. SEC Media Days start on Monday.
