山姆·利维特（Sam Leavitt）对亚利桑那州太阳恶魔的忠诚

他们说硬币有两个方面。看起来大学橄榄球就是这样的硬币。

They say there are two sides to every coin. It appears that college football is much like a coin, with good sides and bad sides to every story.

他们说每个硬币都有两个方面。看来，大学橄榄球就像硬币一样，每个故事的方面都好，方面不好。

Do you recall what Nick Saban's wife, Terry Saban, had to say about NIL? She stated, "All they care about is how much you're going to pay them; they don't care about how you're going to develop them, which is all what we've always done; so why are we doing this?"

您还记得尼克·萨班（Nick Saban）的妻子特里·萨班（Terry Saban）对尼尔（Nil）所说的话吗？她说：“他们所关心的只是您要付多少钱；他们不在乎您将如何开发它们，这就是我们一直做的一切；所以我们为什么要这样做呢？”

Undeniably, there are players who fit into that category. For instance, Carson Beck and Nico Iamaleava took the NIL path. Nevertheless, there have been players for whom loyalty was non-negotiable.

不可否认，有些球员适合这一类别。例如，卡森·贝克（Carson Beck）和尼科·伊玛利亚娃（Nico Iamaleava）走了零之路。尽管如此，有些球员的忠诚度是不可谈判的。

Well, Arizona State Sun Devils quarterback Sam Leavitt falls into that list. He chose loyalty over those hefty checks. Now, does that mean he's completely oblivious to what's happening in college football? Of course not. After all, Leavitt wasn't shy about addressing his team's missed opportunity to reach the CFP.

好吧，亚利桑那州太阳魔鬼四分卫萨姆·莱维特（Sam Leavitt）落入了该名单。他选择了忠诚度，而不是那些巨大的支票。现在，这是否意味着他完全忽略了大学橄榄球的情况？当然不是。毕竟，莱维特（Leavitt）对他的球队错过的机会达到CFP并不害羞。

"I firmly believe, you know, he could win the Heisman trophy. I really believe that." This is what Kenny Dillingham had to say with complete confidence about Leavitt leading the show. And can you blame Dillingham for pinning such high hopes on his quarterback?

“我坚信，你知道，他可以赢得海斯曼奖杯。我真的相信。”这就是肯尼·迪林汉姆（Kenny Dillingham）对莱维特（Leavitt）领导演出的完全充满信心的说法。您能否责怪Dillingham寄希望于他的四分卫？

We're talking about 2885 yards, 24 touchdowns, and 216 of 350 passes completed—numbers that speak volumes of toughness. Now, this isn't to say that Leavitt takes anything for granted. He's got his own mood board set up, y'know, a whiteboard attached to his fridge, with a question to keep him pushing harder: "How great do you want to be?"

我们正在谈论的是2885码，24个达阵和350次通行证中的216次，这说明了韧性的数量。现在，这并不是说Leavitt将任何事情都视为理所当然。他已经设置了自己的情绪板，您知道是一个固定在冰箱上的白板，并提出了一个问题，以使他更加努力地推动：“你想成为多么伟大？”

Turns out that to chase greatness, Leavitt didn't have to chase other teams or bigger checks. Back on May 27, CFB Alerts shared an IG post with a quote from the quarterback.

事实证明，追逐伟大，莱维特不必追逐其他团队或更大的支票。早在5月27日，CFB警报与四分卫的报价共享了IG帖子。

"Why would you not want to be in a situation where you know exactly what's going on."

“为什么您不想在您确切知道发生的事情的情况下成为现实。”

Leavitt further stressed how he wants to strengthen his footing in Arizona State, which would give him a firmer stand to take the long leap to the NFL. So, chasing after a few thousand dollars is something he doesn'نامهی wants to sacrifice something bigger that is in store for him in the NFL.

莱维特进一步强调了他想如何在亚利桑那州加强自己的立场，这将使他更加坚定地迈向NFL。因此，他不想牺牲他在NFL中为他存储的更大的东西而追逐几千美元。

"Who cares if you get paid a couple hundred thousand dollars less when you're gonna have a shot to now go play in the NFL and make 10 times more money."

“谁在乎您的薪水要减少几十万美元，而您现在要在NFL比赛中打球并赚到10倍的钱。”

Dillingham's quarterback sits with an NIL valuation of $3 million. Now this is less as compared to Leavitt's mates who swapped wagons.

Dillingham的四分卫以零估价为300万美元。现在，与换货车的同伴相比，这少了。

Beck's one switch from Georgia to Miami earned him a $4 million NIL offer. Even the ones who chose to stay loyal rank higher in the NIL charts. For instance, Texas Longhorns star Arch Manning holds an NIL value of approximately $6.6 million.

贝克从佐治亚州到迈阿密的一次转换为他赢得了400万美元的零报价。即使是那些选择保持忠诚的人在零图表中排名更高。例如，得克萨斯州长角牛队明星拱门曼宁的零价值约为660万美元。

So, in both ways, Leavitt had good enough reasons to consider jumping off Dillingham's train. But he's choosing to ride it till the final destination in his college journey. After all, he can already foresee something grand awaiting him at the end.

因此，从这两种方面来说，Leavitt都有足够的理由考虑跳下Dillingham的火车。但是他选择骑它直到大学旅程中的最终目的地。毕竟，他已经可以预见到最后等待着他的东西。

In about a month since the 2025 draft, Leavitt has been mocked in the first round 14 times and ranked as a first-round pick on three big boards. He's as high as No. 5 (Cleveland Browns) on one mock and as low as No. 30 (Detroit Lions) on another. Out of the most frequent appearances in Leavitt's probable next home, the Los Angeles Rams appeared six times, and the Pittsburgh Steelers appeared four times.

自2025年选秀大约一个月以来，Leavitt在第一轮中被嘲笑14次，并在三个大董事会上排名第一。他在一个模拟中高达5号（克利夫兰·布朗），在另一个模拟中高达30号（底特律狮子）。在莱维特（Leavitt）可能的下一个家中最常见的出现中，洛杉矶公羊队（Los Angeles Rams）出现了六次，匹兹堡钢人队出现了四次。

However, as of now, Leavitt will have to let go of the burden of the 2024 snub and gift a happy ending to the Sun Devils.

但是，到目前为止，Leavitt将不得不放开2024年冷落的负担，并给太阳恶魔带来幸福的结局。

Red zone regrets still haunt Sam Leavitt

红区后悔仍然困扰着山姆·莱维特

The 2024 season saw Dillingham's defense finish third in the Big 12 in points per game, allowing an average of 22.6. They also restricted Iowa State, which averaged over 31 points per game, to just 19 in the conference championship showdown. But there have been some big oopsie moments, too. The biggest that still haunts Leavitt and his program in their sleep is the heartbreaking 31-29 loss to Steve Sarkisian's boys. On The Matt Barrie Show, the host triggered his fresh regret.

2024赛季，迪林汉姆（Dillingham）的防守在每场得分12分中排名第三，平均得分为22.6。他们还限制了爱荷华州立大学的平均每场31分，在会议冠军赛中只有19分。但是，也有一些很大的时刻。仍然困扰着莱维特（Leavitt）和他睡眠中的节目最大的是让史蒂夫·萨基西安（Steve Sarkisian）的男孩的令人心碎的31-29损失。在马特·巴里（Matt Barrie）的表演中，主持人引发了他的新遗憾。

What's your perspective on: Is Sam Leavitt's loyalty to Arizona State a smart move, or is he missing out on NIL riches? Have an interesting take?

您对您的看法是什么：山姆·莱维特（Sam Leavitt）对亚利桑那州的忠诚是明智之举，还是他错过了零财富？有有趣的看法吗？

Turns out that Leavitt is still not over the pain. "You know the whole time I was like, 'We just need one play to pop like we need a big play or we really didn't even need

事实证明，莱维特仍然没有痛苦。 “你知道我一直都在想，'我们只需要一个戏剧才能流行，就像我们需要大型戏一样，或者我们真的不需要
