2026 College Football Chatter



On Wednesday morning, agent Ron Slavin suggested that Texas Tech gave quarterback Brendan Sorsby a nudge toward the NFL supplemental draft. The official paperwork dismissing Sorsby’s lawsuit against the NCAA describes it as something much more than a nudge.

In the two-page voluntary dismissal of Sorsby’s lawsuit, as posted by Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports, Sorsby’s lawyers stated this: “On June 15, 2026, Plaintiff was informed by Texas Tech that, notwithstanding the Temporary Injunction Order, the University would not permit Plaintiff to play for his football team during the 2026-27 football season, thereby rendered the relief afforded by the Temporary Injunction Order moot.”

In English, Texas Tech told Sorsby on Monday that the school would not allow him to play. Period. End of discussion.

In the end Texas Tech did the right thing, but why on earth did they put out that statement then?

Which one? This one or about helping Sorsby?

Honestly I think the only reason he isnt playing is because of the blowback from the other universities and even our conference. I think they caved under the pressure but thats just my opinion.

The one about helping him.
 
I'm with Rev, I think they only changed their minds when they saw the backlash from that press conference.

Without a doubt. They never would have released the initial statement about helping him if they had planned to do the right thing to begin with. I’m still very disappointed in my university.
