Really like Leon. Wish him nothing but the best.

In terms of why, it would just be guesswork at this point.

Leon's been the most vocal supporter of this program. Something isn't right.

We are upgrading talent at a rapid pace. It is a good thing. Now I wish the same would happen for the oline.
NATTY OR BUST. BUST IT IS.

I seriously doubt Leon is transferring because of influx of talent. Leon established himself as a contributor even after the dust up when he got benched.

The transfer portal is the devil

I will never understand how someone can tell so many lies and not feel bad about it...

Does this mean we should like what Jimbo is doing from a competition and talent standpoint!?!?!

You are reading into something that isn't there.

I find it interesting considering Elko is his position coach. I can't imagine he is leaving because he was mishandled.

I am sorry to see him go, most certainly was going to be a solid contributor. That being said he was burned more than a few times this past season and is a long way from being an A player at his position. That's not to say he couldn't get there...

According Liucci's tweet, people inside the program might not be as surprised as us, because Leon has had a tumultuous tenure in Aggieland.

I think in Jimbo Year 3 the standards of being an Aggie football are getting stricter: 1) go to class and 2) limit distractions away from football. If an individual cannot manage these two items, then irregardless of talent, raw skill or seniority, you may be exiting the program.

Him walking out on the team in the middle of the game was an awful look. He was eventually going to be replaced by Young or Johnson.

I agree with you, to me that was a selfish move. Now he announces his transfer during spring team building drills, another selfish move. He's vocal but Leon is all about Leon.

This one is confusing to me because he had several tweets in the not so distant past about how great a decision he had made by coming to A&M & about how much he loved it here....

Was hoping we'd be able to keep him on the right path for 3-4 years. You could tell by his antics on the field and thru SM his motor runs hot and he seems up and down.

Best of luck to him.

Nothing "happened"...The kid was a loudmouth who never shut up on twitter and it made hims seem like he was better than he actually was. He had one good game (gator bowl) and was consistently beat from there on out. Remember this is the guy who handled his poor play by quitting on the team and walking to the locker room during the middle of the game. I hope he goes somewhere that will make him content, and I hope he plays well there, but the kid needs to learn a valuable lesson from his time here about balling out during the game instead of on social media after it.

There's about as much substance in an average tweet as there is in a fart.
"For all intensive purposes, its the same thing. Then again, I could of cared less about what I actually wrote, as long as people didn't misunderstand the totality of what I was trying to say."

I don't care what any of these armchair posters claim they know, this is a totally bizarre development from the most vocal program supporter, recruiter, Twitter smack talker that I can remember. Even if he was worried about PT, to go from the most extreme team guy to the transfer portal is insane.

I don't think he will be missed that much IMO.

His biggest hits were on Twitter. Probably was told he'd have to fight for a spot and didn't want the competition.

This is really not true. The guy is obviously a great player and he was shaping up to have a breakout year. What is really unfortunate is it is probably in everyone's best interest if he stays but you can't make someone stay who doesn't want to be here. Best of luck to him.
