  1. Meredith, Brown the WR, Jackson the DB, and Junior the safety. I am just guessing. Think that is why Mcghee was not mentioned in percentage article by Gerry.
  2. I bet they paid him, there was some pundit from a major broadcast basically said " give him 2 million and go the the supplemental draft." At the end of the day if Tech was going full end with Sorsby, no matter what not even the Big 12 can trust them in thier conference much less the Big 10 or SEC These has to be tied into the House Bill, seems like a political trick wag the dog. Maybe or purpose or just by accident.
  3. I agree this a nightmare, I agree with your thoughts on Protecting a state university. State of Texas cant donanything criminal, because Sorsby didn't make bets or was underage at the time in Texas. So, it would be a the request of the States and Federal because of cross state, I think, I am no lawyer. But, at the same time cant the Big 12 suspend him if he was under investigation by law enforcement, that would stop all this. End of the day, Campbell should have backed away and cut his losses. But, by doubling down is creating a lose lose for everybody. Whatever, dreams Tech had at being included in the Big boy world of college sports went out the door. How does one suspend a current athlete at Tech from betting on a sport the play. So, you are undercut the Athletic Director and Coach, so why should the players l8sten and how do you discipline. So messed up.
  4. So now the Texas Attorney Journal is the private law firm of Texas Tech. So, if Tech doesnt make the playoffs they going to file a injunction in Texas. Because, Cotton Bowl is in Texas, that's a playoff game. I know, I am going to far. I just believe at the end of the day you bet on games you play in, you are done. Look at the NBA last year, they had guaranteed contracts they are out of league. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. I am no into politics, I am a moderate. But, any political or government agency involved with this loses credibility and whatever trust one had in them.
  5. Sorry meant Middleton will push these as attorney general. These is not a political thing it is sports. So, weird that every sports commentator is agreement this wrong. I apologize for the mistake of the next attorney general.
  6. Paxton becomes senator, is Atwell going to push it.
  7. Thank god, I am moving to China for four years. This is a extreme crap show. Well, Campbell donates to Paxton and Cruz, a kid made bets on games should be banned. Pete Rose banned from baseball, Mickey Mantle step into a Casino in the 50s or 60s got suspended. Do they understand anything, if these is the case was doesnt the Republicans want to bring corporate casinos to Texas? What a messed up state of college sports?
  8. Hey, Congress dont listen to the idiot in Lubbock. This is what you want college sports to be, that delusional idiot, his beyond help. Imagine companies or suppliers, have to listen to this craziness in a meeting.
  9. Duct and run, k8nda of cowardly. If you were proud of it, you would up and front. Now, they are scrambling. I dont think any PR agency can help them. So, when Tech plays a game and after the game no press conference. What a mess?
  10. These probably the most ridiculous thing. I have ever seen, he should not play. Period, we are done. So pathetic, these situations has become and desperate.
  11. You are a idiot the guy speaking in these video. He didn't just bet on his team to win. There were hundreds of bets. If I am a teammate and he is allowed to play he fumbles or throws a interception, there will be doubts. These is sad they are having hearing. Tech should do what is best for the player, that is not play, get help a short stint in a recovery place will not help.
  12. These just makes the whole SMU being ban looks like why did they get banned. When you are having these happening all over college sports? Like Bobby been saying it is out of control. The one leading narrative is Cody Campbell, the one guy who doesnt care as long as he is leading. Politics should stay out of these, make a hard cap no matter where the money coming from. Police these cheap, Sec and big 10 take the league just create your own college league just like the NFL or AFL and be done with these mess.
  13. Exactly, just weird when law enforcement knew, so sorsby goes to rehab. You would think the other two universities had to know as well. I mean do you blindly sign a guy to that much money without questioning his character. Kinda of hard to hide 90k on a college campus. The staffs at the other two university and Tech had to know it was happening. What a freaking mess?
  14. My nephew played with Troy son. I went to a couple of the games. He is always teaching, no matter. Great guy, we need more of that teaching college and youngsters in travel baseball. Troy impressed me as a person. No matter he takes time out to teach.
  15. How did Tech not see this coming? You dont do background checks before sending 6 million to a kid. Then you double down, destroying a head coach and athletic director, in the process. Tech fans at least the normal ones have to be going, Did we sell our souls for this. Only the Big 12 once them. Freaking shame, real shame. There should be a more intense investigation by state and federal agency into the dealings of Tech. I bet these is only the tip to a lot more issues. Then you have Ted Cruz taken the side of cody Campbell, you have to be stupid.
  16. I just cant believe that Tech did not do due diligence in doing a background check on Sorsby. Bobby, Gerry and Coach Shipley brought up good points, a win at all cost. I mean if Tech would be quiet they would be able to sit a the adult table. But, nope they think they have leverage. I wonder if you uncover more info, how bad is really as far as them winning at all cost. Two things in two years will hurt them Sorsby and signing OJO. All that money to the wind.
  17. So tired of the sappy stories. Just give me football.
  18. Ai Keith Jackson doing most of playoff games. Shorten review plays.
  19. Are there moral clauses on NIL's? Sounds stupid. I feel for hardy, seems some kids attract trouble. Hope, these kinda of stuff stops.
  20. Domino's are falling, makes a clearer picture. Plus, still early in recruiting process. With these commitments means, Texas is getting hint of another bigger fish.
  21. So, vic wasn't a bad guy when he recruited them, but know he is a alleged r, not going to say it. Give me a break, they felt they needed playing time and self gratification. Just tired of this bs, why didn't you bring it up when they are here. Parents trying not to let the blame be on thier kids but push it on to others for thier situation.
  22. These is by far one of the worst draft classes in football history. These GMs on some of these teams wonder why their team sucks, jets and Cardinals look at thier draft. It is crazy.
  23. We seem to be stacking a lot of twitchy talent on defense. Definitely a Muschamp type attack and explode on impact player.
  24. So, the womens team will be shopping for talent. NIL, gives a lot leverage to players. One day, people regret decision they make. Rather have coach bring out the best in me, and make money. Instead of going to unknown situation, and not achieving what I am capable of.
  25. University of Houston, North Carolina and Georgetown, back in the mid 80s. Great college basketball. More excitement. Then got good at Texas with Penders and BMW attack. That was ultra fun basketball, Texas and Arkansas.
