Alabama's Ty Simpson could have an impact on Kentucky's chances with QB Sam Leavitt

Kentucky football is in wait-and-see mode right now with Arizona State transfer quarterback Sam Leavitt.

Leavitt spent two days in Lexington once the transfer portal opened on Friday to meet with the Wildcats and new head coach Will Stein. Optimism began to build from Kentucky’s side as Leavitt’s visit to UK lasted until Saturday night. But a visit to Texas Tech was always looming on the schedule. That changed when the Red Raiders landed Cincinnati transfer QB Brendan Sorsby on Sunday. Leavitt elected to skip his trip to Lubbock, swapping it out for a trip to check out Lane Kiffin and the LSU Tigers.
