Brendan Sorsby’s NCAA Gamble: Eligibility in Limbo as Probe Looms
Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby faces a looming NCAA eligibility decision as investigators probe gambling tied to his time at Indiana (and Cincinnati), with a strong belief he could be ruled ineligible for the 2026 season; he’s currently in rehab for a gambling addiction, and while an injunction to override an NCAA ruling is possible in theory, it’s unlikely given the NCAA’s 2023 guidelines that punish gambling on one’s own school. If ruled ineligible, Sorsby could pursue NFL’s supplemental draft route, though Texas Tech would likely fight any ruling and has reportedly earmarked millions for him.
