The Texas Tech Red Raiders have reportedly not decided on quarterback Brendan Sorsby’s future in the wake of his gambling scandal from his early career with the Indiana Hoosiers, beyond entering him into rehab, with the program’s rev-share agreement not due for a payment over the next several weeks. Still, many are speaking of Sorsby in Lubbock as a “what if” more than a tangible asset this fall as TTU looks to repeat as Big 12 champions.
Josh Pate sounded worried about the Red Raiders’ ability to compete for a national championship on his podcast. However, he did sound bullish on Texas Tech still winning the Big 12 without Sorsby.
“There is no backup option here. There’s a literal backup. His name is Will Hammond, who has started before, who is not a bad player. They had to use him last year, he was pressed into duty last year. He’s six-three, 205, is a redshirt sophomore, he was a top 200 prospect a couple of cycles ago in recruiting. So he’s not a bad player,” .
