Texas Tech and Brendan Sorsby parted ways Monday night amid mounting threats, including a formal legal complaint from the Big 12, that sought to challenge his eligibility following an NCAA gambling scandal. The talented quarterback is now headed to the NFL Supplemental Draft, leaving the Red Raiders with major question marks at the position entering the season.
Texas Tech poured more than $5 million in NIL money into Sorsby and now must replace one of college football’s highest-paid quarterbacks with less than 12 weeks until the start of the regular season.
CBS Sports insiders shared their predictions for the quarterback battle in Lubbock and whether Joey McGuire‘s team is still the Big 12 favorite after Sorsby’s departure.
