Big 12 Discussion Thread

Sorsby won't be the QB for them next season. They are going to fold. The entire sports world outside their fanbase is against them. The entirety of college football is already working on ways to punish them. Allowing this kid to play is going to do long term damage.

The end result for Tech is the same whether Sorsby starts at QB or some random asshole from this board. They're running the table in the Big 12 and then getting the soul beaten out of them in the playoffs.

Keeping Sorsby is like trying to save a marriage to a whore. The ending doesn't change - you're just deciding how much embarrassment you want before the divorce.

Worse yet, Tech has money so they can just marry a younger prettier whore next year.

You’re right dude. It’s not murder, we should totally let gambling on the team you’re playing for go.

No way, no WAY AT ALL could that lead to problems. Never. Nope.

I need them to play Sorsby and then he just kind of sucks and they go 7 and 5 or 8 and 4.

That would be perfect.

Yesterday the message was "the court said he could play! What are we supposed to do!?!"

Today it is "look hes getting help. And while he shouldn't have done it...what punishment would even be appropriate? Certainly not a ban!"

They will try twisting themselves every which way before conceding here. Which will just make it more embarrassing like Wild Bill said.

Watch them ditch Sorsby and throw enough money at Darian Mensah that he bolts from Miami, contract be damned. That'd be the ultimate villian move here.

The only major public school in Texas that nobody hated is now Public Enemy #1.

And I dont think they can even fix it by cutting ties with the guy.

POY quality right there gentlemen.

For playing a player after being deemed ineligible by the NCAA?

Sorsby was deemed ineligible in May. He's now eligible.

On the addiction thing I get hooked often. I did/do play a lot of online chess. I played a lot of live poker at the cultural mecca of Greektown Detroit. I am glad I wasn't this age when the game involves no travel at all, has no time limit, is right in your pocket at any time.

I hate "mental health" being used here. Mental Health is constantly misused in today's society in a way to avoid any criticism. They are trying to gain sympathy for him as a poor little student who is suffering from mental health... give me a break.

 

[pumpdog20]

He's going to play, simply due to the fact that TT defense is going to be "we are following a legal injunction, you guys have to as well".

 

[jerseyborn1971]

CFP committee should leave them out even when they are 12-0. Their OOC schedule is Abilene Christian, Oregon State and Samer Houston State. Indiana even thinks that's a weak out of conference schedule.

Updated NCAA 2027 in light of the Sorsby issue

 

[IrishLax]

He's going to play, simply due to the fact that TT defense is going to be "we are following a legal injunction, you guys have to as well".

The letter sent by Paxton is just the cherry on top. I wonder how much Cody promised him for his senate campaign. An 8 month "injunction" is just absolutely insane and our legal system is broken.

 

[jerseyborn1971]

Before all these legal challenges of NIL and eligibility are done, SOMEONE is eventually going to go to jail for bribery.

 

[greyhammer90]

If he plays whoever plays Tech in the playoffs is going to have the weight of the country on their shoulders to beat the piss out of them lol

 

[jerseyborn1971]

Don't be shocked if this kid gets hit with cheap shots all year. If ever there was someone to tee off on and have 99.9% of fans either celebrating it or turning away, it's this kid. I can't remember the last time there was a player that is going to be this hated.
