Brendan Sorsby

Texas Tech is being sneaky at best in recruiting Sorsby's replacement. They might be getting a transfer from UCLA who is entering the transfer portal as a track athlete who can play football.

The judge who graduated from T-Tech has recused himself from this trial. Making it more certain that Sorsby's career is over.

From an NCAA perspective, that shouldn't matter. He did bet on Hoosiers' games while he was an underaged team member. All NCAA schools educate the athletes on the penalties for gambling on NCAA-sponsored sports, including permanent bans for wagering on their own team, even once.

If Brendan Sorsby truly is a gambling addict (which seems likely), then he needs serious help. That still wouldn't absolve him of the consequences. A drunk who kills a pedestrian can't claim that his drunkenness, not his own actions, ultimately led to the accident. Sorsby didn't kill anyone, but the principle is the same.

well his play on the Hoosiers that year was almost boring me to death.

Pete Rose said he never bet on the Reds. Addicts lie.

Then in addition to his gambling, which bars him from eligibility to play NCAA football, he has committed perjury by signing an affidavit averring he didn't bet on UC football games while playing for UC, according to you. You demand to die on that hill, don't you?

My opinnion is if he bet on college football he should be permanently suspended from playing. If he needs help, by all means provide help for him. But he should not play again in college.
JMHO!

This article only mentions Sorsby's problems are with betting on Indiana. I doubt that is really the case. It also says that T-Tech is going to be hurting at the QB spot but should be okay.
