Texas Tech got its QB back. It may lose its opponents as schools talk boycott

Brendan Sorsby decision didn’t just shake college sports — it’s isolating Texas Tech as schools talk about removing Red Raiders from future schedules.

To me it looks like Tceh is trying to throw around some weight and dictate to the Big12 what they will do. Kinda like they are trying to be the bell cow of the conference.

I don't think those schools think that way. Many of them don't want to play Tech over this. Yorkman has his work cut out for him. He's pretty chummy with Tech folks.

This is probably a good indicator of whom has the power: Tech and Cody or all the other schools.

I'm specifically referring to Tech wanting to fill the role of big kahuna and seeing how far they can get. Of course, my lenses are tainted by all of the Tceh brouhaha chatter of being relevant now.

Unless Brett Yormark does something, I think TT athletic director Kirby Hocutt's statement of continuing support of quarterback Brendan Sorsby's recovery from an admitted gambling addiction while also not ruling out the possibility of him playing this season said it all.

In his statement, Hocutt said he watched the reaction "with great respect for my colleagues across college athletics" but wanted to "offer a few facts that seem to be getting lost in the noise." Hocutt confirmed that under the terms of the court ruling, Sorsby will miss the first two games of the 2026 season, which are at home against Abilene Christian on Sept. 5 and at Oregon State on Sept. 12.

"What happens after that will depend, in no small part, on how his recovery continues to progress," Hocutt wrote. "We're taking it one day at a time as he is. We'll evaluate his recovery, compliance and readiness as we go."

Hocutt saying that with a straight face would make Baghdad Bob proud.

I'm wondering if this will cause the end of the Big 12 conference. Are some teams talking to other conferences to join them? As of right now, the top 5 conference winners get a pass to the playoffs. ACC? a revival of the PAC 12?

I kind of feel that SEC and Big 10 are set so it would be other conferences looking to get bigger and better especially when it comes to TV $$

lol, now tech is going to make people play them.

It could well be the tipping point for a super conference. Tech excluded.

Tech forcing, under legal threat, teams to play them is like being made to kiss the fat girl with chlamydia of the mouth.

Good Lord, where did they find this guy? Sorsby is like 15-15 as a starter.

I had wondered the same thing.
