Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby Takes Indefinite Leave Amid Gambling Investigation

Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby has taken an immediate indefinite leave to enter a residential treatment program for a gambling addiction, while an NCAA investigation into his sports betting unfolds. He reportedly wagered thousands across betting apps, including bets tied to Indiana football from his time at Indiana, and transferred to Texas Tech with a notable NIL deal for 2026. If the NCAA finds him ineligible for wagering on his sport at another school, he could face significant penalties and Tech would pursue reinstatement if possible. In the meantime, backup Will Hammond is returning from ACL rehab and Tulsa transfer Kirk Francis could start early in 2026 if Hammond isn’t ready, leaving Tech with questions about its quarterback future but a strong supporting roster as it contends in the Big 12.
