Hopefully not another tease ...

We want YOU big guy. Yes, pointing at YOU.

I wanna see JM III vs Easton Royal, ideally with Neimann Lawrence throwing the ball lol Preview of Texas practices the next three years, hopefully

So is he eligible to sign an UDFA deal with ANY NFL team now? That would actually give him some leverage ...

So Quinn and Sorsby have the same agent ! 😄

From The Athletic - Tech "won’t seek repayment of any amounts already paid to the quarterback through school NIL agreements. Sources familiar with Sorsby’s contract said the quarterback had already earned about $1 million through deals with Texas Tech and third-party outlets." Of course he's being sued by Cincinnati for $1 million for breach of contract so in the end it's six seven (as the cool kids used to say} ...

Very interesting ESPN article about this situation. Many of the assumptions made in this thread are wrong if the article is right. Key points: Up to 8 teams might be interested in drafting him, he was seen as possibly QB2 ahead of Simpson in the 2026 draft, a possible first rounder. Some of those teams could want him as a starter candidate, others with aging QBs might want to groom him as a future starter. I was surprised at how highly he was rated and how many teams might be interested. I doubt he'd make it past the 2nd round in the supplemental draft. How about the gambling? Two examples were given of college guys dinged for gambling who got the opportunity to play in the NFL. This included QB Hunter Dekkers, who lost all eligibility for one $15 bet on his Iowa State team in a game he did not play in. He played a year at a JUCO (not sure if his choice or NFL requirement) and signed "with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad." The other player had around 8,900 bets in college, including 17 on college games, and was not disciplined by the NFL So there apparently would be a path for Sorsby. I know that's not what most want to hear on this thread ... read it for yourself at this link. I was pretty surprised reading the article.

Browns, Cardinals, Jets, Titans off the top of my head. The usual suspects lol

Wasn't Taylor Pannell the player who went to Tech and falsely accused her former Tennessee coach of smart mouthing in the handshake line? Or are there two players with the same name? EDIT: oops, looked it up and you are right, there are TWO players named Taylor Pannell playing college softball, this one transferring from Missouri to A&M.

Two ESPN writers, Matt Miller and Jordan Reid, project their top 5 picks at each position in the '27 draft. Meaningless but kind of interesting, just to see where our guys rank. A couple of surprises. We have players projected # 1 or # 2 at the following positions - QB, WR, OT, OG, EDGE, LB Players projected at 3-5 at these positions: RB, WR2, S No one in Top 5 at these positions: TE, C, DT, CB Article link

Yeah, Jerry Sandusky has been in prison for the past 14 years (where he belongs) and is first eligible for parole when he is 98 years old. You sure you want to compare your situation to theirs?

Roughly 80% hit rate, maybe a little higher? Kids change their mind all the time. No problem.

This series is starting to have that 1977 feel for me, when Bill Walton's Portland Trailblazers dropped the first two games against a powerful 76ers team (Julius Irving, George McGinnis, Daryl Dawkins), then swept the next four games to win the championship. Not saying the Spurs will win four in a row, but they could certainly win a seven game series. Spurs are really young and they came off a very emotional and physically draining seven-game series against OKC, so it looked like they just weren't quite ready for those first two games. But if they get it rolling they could definitely beat the Knicks. Not predicting anything, but I find it funny how the national media overreacts, like saying the Knicks were going to sweep after game 2.

I think the winner of the Big 12 gets a bid, so that won't work. NCAA should lay down the gauntlet - something like "OK, the judge says you can play him but our NCAA rules that you agreed to say he is clearly ineligible for his admitted gambling, so Tech will forfeit every game in which he plays". Probably illegal to ignore the injunction but would Tech call their bluff? Probably but at least the NCAA would be taking a stand. They always cave.
