Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby Enters Gambling Treatment as NCAA Investigates Reported Bets

An NCAA probe into reported thousands of wagers now puts his college eligibility at risk.

Overview

  • Sorsby, who checked into a residential program Monday, is on an indefinite leave from Texas Tech to address a gambling addiction.
  • ESPN reports he placed thousands of online bets, with On3 later putting the total above 10,000 since 2022, including wagers on Indiana to win while he redshirted.
  • The NCAA is investigating the reported wagering, and its rules say betting on one’s own team can result in permanent loss of eligibility.
  • Cincinnati’s $1 million breach-of-contract lawsuit over his transfer remains active, and his attorneys filed a motion Monday to dismiss the case.
  • Reports indicate no sign of game manipulation or law enforcement involvement at this time.
