Brendan Sorsby, the Texas Tech Red Raiders quarterback, is suing the NCAA after admitting to placing thousands of bets over several years, including wagers on Indiana football during his redshirt year in 2022. This legal move comes as Sorsby faces potential permanent ineligibility due to the NCAA's strict gambling bylaws. His legal team, led by prominent attorney Jeffrey Kessler, argues that the NCAA has created an 'impossible bind' by delaying its reinstatement decision as the NFL deadline approaches. Meanwhile, Texas Tech's quarterback situation remains precarious. Backup QB Will Hammond is recovering from a torn ACL and is not expected to return until late August, which adds to the uncertainty for the team. If Sorsby is unable to play and Hammond is not ready, Kirk Francis, a transfer from Tulsa, may step in as the starting quarterback. This turmoil has allowed BYU to rise to the top of the Big 12 power rankings, as they boast a stable roster and returning production, contrasting with Texas Tech's current challenges.
