I figured it out. Texas Tech has outsourced their PR to @AndrewKolvet. It’s the only explanation for that disaster.

[Xavier MacDuff @xvrmdf]

This is obviously not a German account.

Prior to the World Cup it was focused entirely on Saudi football club Al-Nassr.

And it's tweeting in English as though written by an American.

Nice try though.

Oh dear...

We found another surreal place on our way. I know some people will say I’m too positive about everything I see, but this place was crazy. They had a shooting range in the store.

[🇺🇸 Tim Morrison 🇺🇸 @TimMorrison]

@nickmeals Someone appears to have told them that people just don't understand the situation and that they should keep explaining it. It's unbelievable.

[🇺🇸 Tim Morrison 🇺🇸 @TimMorrison]

Sir, when things like that happen, the players are suspended or dismissed from their respective teams. Stop it.

[College Transfer Portal @CollegeFBPortal]

NEW: Texas Tech HC Joey McGuire:

“As a society, we’ve been okay with other things that happens and allowing players to play.”

"It's crazy… it's not murder, it's not beating somebody.” 😳

[🇺🇸 Tim Morrison 🇺🇸 @TimMorrison]

Well said.

Long post incoming, because I think it’s important that someone says this…

I know and love a lot of addicts. I worked in the field at one point and I have family members who are clinicians currently working in addiction treatment.

The weaponizing of Sorsby’s addiction by Texas Tech has been disgusting, and the passage below heavily implies that TTU’s support of his recovery is dependent on him being a football player.

If TTU genuinely cared about Brendan Sorsby’s recovery they wouldn’t have waited until after a judge ruled he could play football to set these support systems up. And that’s before we even address what type of trigger a $5 million check could be for a gambling addict who supposedly gambles due to anxiety and will now feel the pressure of showing he was worth the money and backlash.

If Sorsby’s gambling is truly the manifestation of a generalized anxiety disorder as they have claimed then the least productive thing for his recovery is to turn him into a national story and a focal point for a lot of people who are rightly worried about what this means for the competitive integrity of all college sporting events.

There is a word for swooping in and fixing things for an addict so they don’t have to face the natural consequences of their actions— “ENABLING”

A player being punished for being an addict is not the same thing as him facing the natural consequences of crossing boundaries that he a) knew existed and b) took measures to circumvent.

I believe wholeheartedly in the disease model of addiction, and I have compassion for addicts who are trying to make a healthier lifestyle into a new habit. Texas Tech has created a false dichotomy that paints those supports as being dependent on Brendan’s football eligibility.

Not playing football does not equate to him being expelled from the university. These supports should never have been dependent on his being part of the team.

I don’t believe anybody at Texas Tech is actually making Brendan Sorsby’s addiction recovery the most important thing here. If they were, they never would have put him in this spot. They just want you to back off because they think it will help them win a few more games, and that part of this story feels way grosser to me than anything else.

To be fair, Athens is a long way from Omaha.

[Clayton Collier @ClaytonJCollier]

Oklahoma took the ROAD to Omaha seriously.

The Sooners were the only team to drive instead of fly into town after winning the Lawrence Super Regional.

@FreddyLA7 Hard pass. Rains every day, the humidity is horrible, and you’re still an hour from the beach (in Mobile, Al metro)

[🇺🇸 Tim Morrison 🇺🇸 @TimMorrison]

Don't you ruin this for us by being rude to this treasure, Ron. If he wants to call it the sea, then it's the sea.

[Ron DeSantis @RonDeSantis]

It’s the Gulf, not the sea. And you will see some of the best beaches in the world. Enjoy!

If someone doesn't pay this guy to go on a tour of SEC football this fall, we have failed as a society.

Someone needs to define "unwarranted" in this scenario.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

U.S. Central Command forces began launching additional self-defense strikes today at 5:15 p.m. ET against multiple targets in Iran at the Commander in Chief’s direction. The strikes are in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression.

The other insufferable group is "sports personalities" who feel that everyone they want to interview owes them an interview.

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

I find the 2 most insufferable group of people on the planet are lifetime educators and lifetime politicians. Both live in a fantasy world that lacks common sense and would not survive a day in the real world
