So you're saying your middle child is the black sheep of the family. :{

My older child always kind of balked on wearing IU gear going to school in Kentucky. But my middle child, he’ll sport it proudly! Love it

Have been pretty amazed at the number of people who have already moved on to the, “What’s wrong with betting on your team to WIN?” position. Putting aside that Sorsby apparently bet against IU a couple of times, because who wouldn’t have, I’ve been throwing out there the scenario that if TTU is -10 and Sorsby takes the points, whips a couple of touchdown throws over his guys heads and they win by 6 why would that not be cool with them since he didn’t throw the game?

For the coming season Purdue is also considering boycotting Texas Tech. And Indiana.

So far the only guy to put his name on a boycotting quote is an AD (KState) who doesn’t play Tech this year.

A nice aspect is gambling proceeds don’t need clearinghouse approval. The $ is all yours free and clear Mr. College [Student] Athlete.

If it’s not an empty threat, that tactic would probably do the trick to rectify this particular episode.

Tie the newly authorized gambling hall pass into the NIL program? just a thought.

So the the most hilarious way this ends is with sorsby betting on tech to lose and throwing the game right? Everybody gets what they deserve?

The Big 12 refuses to play TTU. A judge rules they forfeited; TTU wins its non-con games; declared undefeated and ranked #1; awarded the national championship title by default by the same judge. Paul BaldTrollDumb@$$ is ecstatic that we didn't have the chance to go back-to-back.

Perfect quote. No notes.

I wondered if this is where things would eventually lead. The threat at least. I can’t imagine anyone actually doing it.

Big 12 ADs Reportedly Discuss Boycotting Texas Tech Game After Brendan Sorsby Decision

In Texas? Not a chance; that's one of the 'weakest' governorships in the nation (not commenting on the individual - the scope of gubenetorial powers).

Hence the need for legislation. Also? The timing of investigating Sorsby and not releasing the matter to the public until within the period that legal maneuvering can allow him to get an effective victory is... unfortunate. In retrospect? They probably should have banned him the second they had one item of hard evidence, and then superceded with additional evidence. Sometimes an anecdotal episode is the price that needs to be paid to effect change.

I’d be interested though if the governor has any power? Conceivably could state level legislation solve this and maybe provide a framework for federal level?

Hope this guy’s wrong. Maybe some of the more litigious of our posters can pick this apart.

Jamie Shaw following a South Carolina Team Camp Day - Antoine Caughman looks the part. You see the 6-foot-5 wing walk on the court with excellent length and a projectable frame; he has a high major frame. What really pops with Caughman’s game is his scoring ability. He has a smooth jump shot and wants the ball in his hands. With multiple plays, he scored the ball off movement or the catch. He got to his mid range pull up and he finished at the basket. He will need to continue working through his balance points and footwork, stream-lining his process getting to his spots. However, the ceiling is high for the scoring guard. Caughman is currently ranked No. 21 on Rivals. The Keenan (SC) High School wing recently added offers from UCLA, Cal, and Indiana.

I was including everyone at Texas Tech and their lawyers in the "adults" group. But yes I know that would be unrealistic.

4-star Lincoln Williams has committed to Illinois and Brad Underwood. The 6-foot-6 wing out of Kankakee, Illinois was one of the top ranked prospects available in the ‘26 class.

The real question is did Sorsby place a $100k bet on Polymarket and another $100k on Kalshi that he'd win the injunction?

lol. Huge eyeroll.

There’s off the books incentives. It can’t be official
