  1. Someone really needs to ask Joey when and how he / Tech became aware of Sorsby’s situation and if the was before the end of spring practices, if Sorsby missed any practices after that.
  2. Same folks that didn’t have us getting out of the regional. The game threads this year have been a brutal read.
  3. One game at a time my friends
  4. The AG’s job is to enforce the laws of the state of Texas, which Sorsby has violated and the AG appears to have done nothing about.
  5. Light the tower!!!?!!?!??!???
  6. So Paxton is writing legal threats against something that the Big XII might do…. Meanwhile I haven’t heard a thing from the AG’s office about the documented violation of Texas state gambling laws that Sorsby has admitted to. His priorities are “interesting” at best.
  7. Now spinning his inevitable return week 3 as a gritty human interest story when we all know there is a 0% chance he doesn’t start unless someone from the outside steps in and prevents it.
  8. This is classic. Literally, the criminal gets to determine the penalty for the actions which he has admitted are in violation of NCAA rules and state laws. The fox is literally running the hen house.
  9. I understand the sentiment but I’m not a fan of starting threads specifically to sh*t on our own players.
  10. No bueno. Hopefully it’s not a reoccurring thing for him.
  11. No doubt. That guy at UCLA had them as the national #1 seed! Get him!
  12. The other thing that Tech has failed to acknowledge is that if he falls back into his addiction he will find a way to circumvent all the digital and financial account monitoring that they are using to justify that he can safely participate in football in the future. The first time some alumni hands him a Benjamin there’s nothing that they can do keep him from buying a burner and paying someone to set up an account for him. I’m sure that there are plenty of people that would be more than willing to go out of their way to “help” someone that is publicly known to be sitting on $6m (assuming he’s allowed to play).
  13. You have to think they released this knowing that either the authorities already have all of this evidence or he has already arranged plea deals and the eligibility question is the only thing keeping him from being able to play. I don’t have any idea what the potential criminal penalties are for this, but it would certainly be difficult to plead not guilty considering he’s admitted to the evidence. Of course they can try the mental illness angle in criminal court also.
  14. Because he may have also been breaking the law at the same time. I think that would make his friends accessories to the crime(s), but I’m not a lawyer.
  15. Based on the Tech logic of minimal punishment for an addict you have to wonder what punishment they would deem appropriate for a non-addict that only made two bets that “happened” to be unders against his team. I would assume nothing less than a lifetime ban because that person was fully responsible for their own actions. BTW, when did Sorsby become an addict? His first IU bet?
  16. The ultimate “your honor I do not recall” from our friends at ESPN: Sorsby, who appeared in 10 games and made seven starts at Indiana in 2023, said he was unaware of an October 2022 bet on the under for Indiana's quarterback passing yards or a September 2023 bet on the under for the first half of a Hoosiers football game. "Sorsby became aware of the bets only after the betting data was made available to his attorneys," the stipulated facts said. While I agree that it’s probably difficult to remember all the bets he’s made since he’s made SO many, that was an extremely convenient memory lapse.
  17. Makes you wonder what the folks at IU and UC knew.
  18. Even funnier, if Tech knew and didn’t do anything until the criminal investigations were revealed, could Sorsby sue Tech for enabling his addiction?
  19. Kinda makes you think… If Tech did know and didn’t do anything until the criminal investigations were revealed, is the University potentially liable for enabling a criminal enterprise?
  20. More like $25m. Have Cody pony up for our entire annual NIL budget, Tech give Texas all of their 2026 media rights revenue, and require that Tech end the Sorsby reinstatement charade and I’d be up for a game against Tech at DKR.
  21. Good to know the SEC baseball conference tournament is just as relevant as the SEC football conference championship game
  22. I would be interested in a compare and contrast of this Sark offense versus his prior college offenses including Bama, USC, and Washington. Based on what you think you know about the various pieces, what prior college offense do you think this team most resembles from an individual talent and anticipated style of play perspective. The second question does NOT need to be somehow contorted into a prior Texas team comparison, feel free to cast a wider net.
  23. Completely agree. We were tragically inconsistent on first down. We either made a first down or were WAY behind the sticks. A bad cocktail of poor OL play, poor RB play, and ineffective passing plays / calls. Hopefully an improved OL and RB room provides the foundation for substantial improvement here.
  24. The NCAA just needs to take the L and move on. 😂 On a serious note…. Seems like he has a substantial problem. If I’m the NCAA, I wait for the legal process to take its course, which of course is not what Sorsby and his legal counsel want. Assuming that pushes close to the supplemental draft deadline Sorsby will have to make a tough decision as to whether to fight with the NCAA with potential state legal action coming or see if an NFL team will pick him up. I’m guessing the NCAA dodgers making a ruling unless they absolutely have to.
