I understand why people are uncomfortable with the Brendan Sorsby situation. Betting on sports as a college athlete is serious. Betting connected to your own team creates an obvious integrity concern. Nobody has to minimize that.

But there is another side to this that college football people should at least be honest enough to acknowledge.

When a player becomes part of your program, he becomes part of your football family. That does not mean you excuse everything. It does not mean accountability disappears. It means you do not abandon him the second the situation becomes difficult, public, or uncomfortable.

There is a difference between defending the person and defending the mistake.

Texas Tech is in an impossible spot. Deep down, they may have hoped the final ruling would remove the decision from their hands. Exhaust every option, support the player, let the process play out, and if he is ruled ineligible, accept it. That is the cleanest outcome for a program trying to balance loyalty, discipline, public pressure, and competitive integrity.

But now the court has ruled that he is legally allowed to play. That changes the structure of the decision.

If Texas Tech turns its back on him now, what message does that send to every player and family they recruit? That we will fight for you until the pressure gets too loud? That we will call you family when you are producing, but distance ourselves when standing beside you becomes inconvenient?

If I were recruiting against Texas Tech and they abandoned him after he was legally cleared to play, I would use that every time. Not because the mistake does not matter, but because trust matters. Families want to know what happens when their son is injured, struggling, accused, embarrassed, or sitting in the middle of a situation nobody wants attached to the program.

Accountability and loyalty are not opposites.

You can believe justice should be served. You can believe the integrity of the game matters. You can believe gambling violations deserve real consequence. You can also believe that a program should stand by its people through the full process, not just through the easy parts.

That is the hard part of family.

You do not only fight for your people when the optics are clean. You fight for them through the good and the bad, while still demanding accountability, treatment, discipline, and truth.

Texas Tech may not like the position it is in. Most programs would not. But once he is legally allowed to play and remains part of the Red Raider family, abandoning him strictly because of social pressure would send its own message.

And that message may be harder to overcome than the controversy itself.

Let’s do this. Sorsby doesn’t play. Then let’s all go all out and uncover every athlete, coach, and administrator in the country that has ever placed a bet, any bet, in HS or college and expose it all. I bet this goes away before you can say Go Dawgs!

@Lithium_Plays @CanadyNijaree She would probably be in it for sure...but it won't be about her. Congratulations on the win.

[MOJO Ŧ 🌵 @piermj]

What @CanadyNijaree has done for softball, Lubbock, and Texas Tech may be a 30 for 30 one day. What a fun two years it has been to be a Red Raider. From someone that has never watched softball until last year…Thank you! #WreckEm

Seen a TON of misinformation regarding transfers for Texas and Texas Tech softball. The numbers floating around are incorrect for both teams. So this should help provide some accurate information and also some context to the discussion.

Texas Tech has eight new transfers on the roster in 2026. They have 15 total transfers.

Texas has four new transfers on the roster in 2026. They have five total transfers.

Texas Tech's eight new transfers this season:
Jackie Lis (Southern Illinois)
Mia Williams (Florida)
Lagi Quiroga (Cal)
Taylor Pannell (Tennessee)
Desi Spearman (New Mexico State)
Jazzy Burns (Ohio State)
Kaitlyn Terry (UCLA)
Nikolette Schmidt (Houston)

Texas' four new transfers this season:
Kaiah Altmeyer (Arizona)
Taylor Anderson (Oklahoma State)
Brenlee Gonzales (Texas Tech)
Sophia Bordi (Oklahoma)

Texas Tech's prior transfers:
Alana Johnson (Washington)
Nija Canady (Stanford)
Mihyia Davis (Louisiana)
Chloe Riasetto (Louisiana)
Vic Valdez (Louisiana)
Lauren Allred (Louisiana)
Makayla Garcia (UT-Tyler)

Texas' prior transfers:
Kaydee Bennett (Abilene Christian)

One other note of context: Gerry Glasco took over at Texas Tech prior to the 2025 season. Davis, Riassetto, Allred, and Valdez came with him from Louisiana (along with the now graduated Alexa Langeliers) to help build this new program that had only three returners from the 2024 team: Reagan Jennings, Logan Halleman, and Demi Elder.

They had three players left from the prior era. The portal (and their eight-player recruiting class for 2025) was necessary to mold a roster out of thin air.

So anyway, stop sharing that bogus graphic... and also stop acting like any team that is utilizing the transfer portal or NIL (Texas, Texas Tech or anyone else) is doing anything wrong.

I don’t like how this team played by the rules and beat us…let’s change the rules to suit us. 😏

[Kalen DeBoer @BoersBurner]

Texas Tech should not have been allowed to switch the same pitchers over and over again

We need a change

[MOJO Ŧ 🌵 @piermj]

Awesome! Go get it WV!

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

Very cool. Point for college baseball.

[Hank 🌵🏴‍☠️ @HankTech]

@barstoolsports Announcers just glazed over how good of a catch that was by Allred

[Chris Vannini @ChrisVannini]

Texas Tech softball is the most entertaining sports team in the country

[MOJO Ŧ 🌵 @piermj]

@coach_harvey18 @CanadyNijaree Can’t put a value on what she has done for this University! That ROI is incredible!

[MOJO Ŧ 🌵 @piermj]

What a job by @CanadyNijaree after facing so much adversity…the grit and determination to come back and finish like that shows you exactly who she is! What a performance! WreckEm! #WCWS

[MOJO Ŧ 🌵 @piermj]

You obviously have never been in a locker room. This country needs more tough love and hard coaching! I love it! WreckEm!!

[𝓓𝓻. 𝓡𝓸𝓬𝓴𝔂 𝓞𝓼𝓫𝓸𝓻𝓷 🤘🏽🏈🏉🧡🌴🌈 @rockyknowsbest]

What’s going to wear out the Tech pitchers faster: constantly switching them in and out or berating them when they need support?

[MOJO Ŧ 🌵 @piermj]

Get some!!!!!! WreckEm!!!!!
