Every Big 12 AD but Texas Tech's Kirby Hocutt believes Brendan Sorsby shouldn't play. That was communicated today on the call
There are plenty of ideas to convince/pressure Tech to cut Sorsby loose, but Ads believe it's common sense: He bet on his sport; Tech shouldn't play him
6. The Conference can also rely on Bylaws § 1.4.1, which says a member’s right to receive conference revenue and participate in conference athletic events exists in accordance with the Bylaws and Rules, unless the member is subject to sanctions.
4. The Big 12 also has Bylaws § 1.3.2 - Adherence to NCAA Rules.
That provision says members are committed to NCAA rules and policies, must demonstrate institutional control, and must be fully committed to compliance with NCAA and Conference rules.
@BostonConnr He's not a boy. He's an adult that made an adult decision. 9,000 times.
He knew the consequences if he was caught. He did it anyway. 9,000 times.
Big 12 ADs tell @YahooSports they’ve had “serious” talks on not playing Texas Tech. One SEC AD says there should be conversations about not playing Tech “in any sports.”
The Brendan Sorsby ruling has left an industry jarred.
“It’s total f***** bullshit.”

• 9000 different bets
• $90,000 wagered
• Betting on games he suited up for
• Willfully ignoring classes and meetings from 3 different institutions about the one cardinal sin in sports
But hey, find a local judge and convince him the kid will be really sad if he doesn’t get to play and none of that matters does it?
What a joke.
Interesting that Kyle Whittingham was demanding a huge raise after the U of U athletic department lost $31 million in 2021 and $17 million in 2014. #utpol
