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.

ABC not showing WCWS Texas Tech vs Tennessee due to technical SUCKS!

No one wants anything to do with this incompetent and ignorant grifter-

Americans it is critical conservatives get out and vote. Especially on November 3, 2026. Keep our country clear of liberal plans to destroy America.

Democrats refused to stand when Trump said our government should protect citizens over illegal aliens. They sat so perfectly still you'd think their pants were permanently glued to the upholstery. At least they finally admitted exactly who they work for.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just CHECKMATED Democrats in the House chamber He asked members of Congress to STAND UP if they believe it's the duty of the US government to protect American citizens over illegals... AND PRACTICALLY ALL DEMOCRATS STAYED SITTING "You should be ASHAMED of yourselves by sitting down!"

Bold strategy from many Congressional Democrats who are boycotting President Trump's State of the Union tomorrow. That’ll show him… right?

Senior Bowl game today is on TV, but also on NFL Network. This sucks. Can’t see the game when you can’t afford NFL Network.

I pray the protesters and paid agitators would back off and see their wrong. Let the ICE and law enforcement do their job. Thus, there is likely limited chance of by standers being injured or hurt and no one being gun shot. Those taken in custody will be reviewed for deportation.

Simple.

SAY YES

YES!

What’s your response?

Just now on SI.com and ON3. Com: Cam Coleman the WR just committed to Texas.

We want to know the names of the RINOs in Congress who voted to help Democrats ok the Obamacare funding. We need to know who to vote out of Congress. There are better health care programs available and better ones coming.
