The Most Important Rule in Sports Just Became Optional

Any teeth the NCAA had remaining to enforce rules onto the sports it governs were firmly knocked out of its mouth by a district court judge in Lubbock who granted an injunction allowing quarterback Brendan Sorsby to play in 2026 despite admitting to betting on his own team at Indiana and on other college sports at multiple stops in his college career. 

It was a great ruling for Texas Tech, who now gets a star quarterback back in Week 3 in time for the Big 12 opener against Houston. The Red Raiders believe they’re a national championship contender with Sorsby under center.
