They are the same people who want Sorsby to play because they think he did nothing wrong.

The number of Tech folks who truly believe this could happen or view it as anything other than posturing is staggering.

It's sad that it has come to this. But it has. Texas Tech is doing anything to be relevant. They're desperate, so desperate in fact that it's embarrassing to watch grown men grovel. Cody Campbell and Joey McGuire are the faces of desperation. So butthurt are the Red Raiders about getting left in the Big 12 that their administration at every level, from the board of regents, to the president's office, even to the football coach's office, they're all willing to do anything to get anyone to listen to them and regard them as more relevant than they are. In a flash of showmanship and false bravado, their football coach today asked for Texas to move its game with Texas State from Austin on Sept. 5, and schedule Texas Tech in Dallas instead. Yet just minutes later, that very same coach tried to convince reporters that his quarterback who gambled on his own team should not incur significant penalties. "Maybe he should get a few games but not a whole year [I am paraphrasing here]," McGuire told reporters. A sane man's response to such words? Joey McGuire will say anything to anybody if it helps him win a football game. He's a man who knows no bounds. McGuire is only following the lead of his president, who days earlier the president of Texas Tech penned a letter to all students and alumni asking for the same thing. The whole thing is preposterous. They know it. You know it. We all know it. If you gamble on your team, you're toast. As for Campbell, his thumbprints are all over the latest senate legislation. And that legislation attempts to box in Texas and the SEC. Why is Campbell so worried about what's going on in Austin? Does he feel threatened? Again, it's the move of desperate people. And McGuire and Campbell are the faces of desperation. Texas Tech is embarrassing itself over and over again. View full news story

Biggest casualty in the whole Sorsby saga is Will Hammond. Dude played decent for them, certainly good enough to make the playoffs this year. Idk about the injury status but just feel for the guy lol

I wonder how burned the bridge is with the Big 12? I feel like unless Yormark is gone, I doubt Texas will schedule any of those teams. They even cancelled the series with ASU after they joined the Big 12. Makes me feel like there is definitely some bad blood there. I haven't looked at basketball and baseball but I don't think we have scheduled a ton of Big 12 teams there after leaving either.

Hey Joey, I hear Georgia is looking for a game that day in Athens, and willing to buyout Tennessee State to make room for Tech. Interested? Yeah, I didn’t think so. Good luck with ACU!

My dad went to Reagan and enjoyed the interview too. Evidently he met Brad a time or two and had some friends in common. Got this text after the interview. I remember him riding up to a party on a motorcycle and Tommy Walker saying, “ what’s that big guy picking on that motorcycle “. It was a Kawasaki 350, not a small bike. Brad was a real friendly guy.

*uck Joey McGuire

dudes a clown

Joey knows Texas won’t give up a home game for his clown show. Probably one of the main reasons he’s running his nickel head like this.

Tech is still scorned Daddy left

Smart move. Will it pay off?

Go pound sand, you loud mouth jerk. Although we probably should do this and mudhole them like last time. 57-7 or something like that.

Protector.org is funded through a larger not for profit called Street Grace (based in Atlanta) and run by Bob Rodgers. Read here www.streetgrace.org. This is an anti- sex trafficking not for profit. That said, it is now “aligned” with Protector.org and sends grant money to get it funded and launched. Todd Robinson (the guardian) is no stranger to those who follow recruiting. He was the guy who took guardianship over Justin Johnson (5-star RB in 2008 who chose OU), as well as being a guardian and/or mentor to several other highly ranked football recruits in Gilmer area over the years (K.Boyd, C.Brown, others). So the story goes that Robinson was once an exchange student in France as a kid and somehow maintained “relationships” in that community in France. And voila!!… a highly skilled 6’6” 340 lb athlete is introduced to Todd Robinson and winds up relocating from France to play football at Gilmer High, and is then adopted by Robinson (giving him power of attorney over Camara’s affairs, I assume). Now Camara is not only an elite recruit, he is being repped by his “team of advisors” (including Robinson, Rodgers, etc). They meet with colleges on his behalf and control his recruitment. Camara is now an active fund raiser for a not for profit, and doesn’t seem to have time to select a college for himself. If he doesn’t have time for his own recruitment, does this sound like a guy who’ll be a highly-focused talent maximizer after he gets $1M+ NIL deal? There are a lot of adults who stand to make a lot of money for themselves, and they seem to have surrounded the kid to the point where the adults are running the decision making, not the player. I’d love to be wrong and believe this is just an incredibly sweet rags-to-riches story for a really good kid, but then I look at this chaotic recruiting process, social media campaign, and outside activities, and all I can see adults spoiling that story. I sincerely hope I’m wrong.

I’ve yet to hear one person on the Texas Tech side say Sark was wrong about Tech’s garbage schedule. Also, as I said after Sark’s comments in Houston, it’s not Texas’ responsibility to improve Tech’s non-conference schedule. Play a big-boy opponent out of conference and you can have a seat at the table with the other adults.

I know Gerry and others have a lot of respect for him from his time as a high school coach but go to a clown school, become a clown. Simple stuff

Joey McGuire tossing out this ‘We’ll play Texas on Sept. 5’ fantasy is peak Joey - a grown man doing his best impression of a tough guy while sounding like the loudest dork in the room. He knows the offer is impossible. He knows Texas isn’t rearranging a real opener to accommodate a program that’s been irrelevant since MySpace. But Joey can’t help himself - he lives for these fake‑tough PR stunts because it’s the only time Tech gets mentioned next to Texas anymore. This wasn’t swagger. It was insecurity wrapped in a slogan. He beat Texas once, puffed his chest like he’d solved football, and then spent the next two seasons getting shoved around by anyone with a helmet. Meanwhile Texas is lining up Ohio State, Michigan, and playoff runs. Tech is lining up ACU - Abilene Christian - the kind of FCS cupcake you schedule when you need a guaranteed win and a coach who needs a confidence boost. McGuire talks like a heavyweight, coaches like a mid, schedules like a coward, and carries himself like the program’s official hype‑dork. If he wants Texas that badly, he can buy a ticket and watch how adults open a season.

So he doesn’t know who his QB will be and he wants to throw some random guy on the field across from Colin Simmons week 1? Spot the ball.

I was at the $MU game at the Cotton Bowl Stadium when Roosevelt Leaks rushed for 342 yards from the Fullback position in the Wishbone. He and I graduated in the same class and I told him I enjoyed that performance against $MU. He said it was the only time he'd felt totally exhausted after a game. He was a great player and representative for the University of Texas. Hook 'Em!

ALL politicians are useless and can’t be trusted to care about the common man

VERY bold from a glorified high school coach who couldn’t win past 8 games before Texas and blOwU left the little 12

Hahaha great point. OSU could swap us for OSU.

I say let’s go. If tech wants some they have to buy out TSU too. But they need to know we’re going to run the damn score up as much as we can and we won’t call off the dogs. This is an empty load of BS anyway because TV schedules and networks are already set. If Cody wants to pay for that too come on down and get your whoopin.

Pulling that stunt 100 days before the start of the season and you know his own fanbase will eat it up. Funny how he didn't offer to play week 2 and buy out Ohio State
