Link: Texas Tech QB Sorsby Entering Treatment for Gambling Addiction

[JDCrimson]

Just imagine what would be happening if Jameis Winston or Lawrence Phillips were playing now. Cam Newton got paid by an offering plate collective after stealing computers. Oh that's right they got to play anyway...

Paternity and Sandusky coached while covering and abusing kids...

Just another horse out of the barn, imo.

CNS said all this stuff is coming and it’s here. SMH

CFB needs a collective bargaining agreement, salary cap and a commissioner ASAP.

Wow. My question is: what will happen to him if he is caught again? Or twice more? Or 10x more?

This decision would seem to give all players a green light to gamble, or am I crazy?

Like Bob Dylan's song says, "It's All Over Now Baby Blue".

Don't let Henry Hill find out..LOL

all the court cases are doing is teaching the wrong lesson.

And any rule they try to come up with will be challenged as “you’re trying to restrict my ability to earn money” and will get shot down.

I can see the day when a lawyer comes running on the field as the ref is ejecting a player for targeting. The lawyer will be yelling "you can't do that. You're restricting my client's ability to make money and here's the restraining order to stop this injustice"

Wait can we get a restraining order for a certain SEC ref?

So when the NCAA nearly killed our program in the 2000s, we could’ve just gotten a judge to throw all that out?

And from that, the folks in Lee county realized all you have to do is lawyer up and the NCAA won't touch you.

This all just feels like The Joker's version of Gotham and Two Face to legitimize it.

This ruling is a complete and utter disgrace. I guess you can get a court to give you an injunction for literally anything, unless you're a player for Alabama. Just unbelievable.

Meanwhile, back in Alabama, Charles Bediako would be ruining college Athletics if he's allowed to play according to the Mastermind of the SEC- Greg Sankey

And to that point, I don't even see as much outrage from the media about this as I saw about Bediako. There is definitely some, as there should be, but I see way more neutral reporting on this than I did with Bediako. It seemed like with Bediako, EVERYONE had an opinion.

I know many treatment directors and physicians that specialize in addiction treatment that would look this judge, his attorney, his coach Joey McGuire, Texas Tech President Lawrence Schovanec, and super booster Cody Campbell directly in the eyes and say “Congratulations gentleman. You have just increased the risk that Sorsby is either dead or in jail by about 10-fold before the age of 35. I hope ya’ll will take the time to visit him in prison or at the cemetery when that happens”.

Sankey should be fired

Hoooooo boy is the cfb world ticked off haha

The NCAA plans to appeal the decision. But the appeal will be heard by the Texas Seventh District Court of Appeals. All four judges are Texas Tech Law graduates.

The NCAA has been so wrong so often over the years. But in this case they are absolutely correct. The legal system has been kicking the NCAA in the groin over eligibility and NIL for the past several years.

Today the courts went ahead and finished the job by completing neutering them.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

I am glad to know that the only people that think this is ok are texas tech people. Everyone else thinks this is garbage. I know a judge ruled he gets to play, but if people had any integrity at all they would just forfeit any games against Tech.
