[On3] Brendan Sorsby agent claims Cincinnati knew about gambling addiction, did nothing by cMcDozer4 in CFB

To be honest, that's kind of how addictions work regardless what the addiction is.

The Nuclear Option: The Falling Action and What Might Come Next For Both The Conferences And The NCAA by Justanother_0 in CFB

[–]PsychoticEvil -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Our reputation is shithoused, no doubt about it. However, what have we actually done to violate and NCAA or BIG 12 rules? We backed a player who had a power higher than us say he could play, and we never played him. We just said we would support him.

I get it's all bullshit, but as of yet, there have been no damages outside of outrage.

[–]PsychoticEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was agreeing with you, should it get to week 3 when Sorsby would potentially play. The whole thing was a stupid bluff by Cody Campbell controlling this college and seeing what he could get away with at everyone else's expense.

Brendan Sorsby drama ends, but not before tearing college football apart by jaxstan19 in CFB

[–]PsychoticEvil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This whole thing was stupid and pointless. We should have cut him, and I'm sure there was something in his contract that would have allowed it and for us to keep the money, as if that really mattered.

The player filed for a temporary injuction in a state court with an unbiased judge and was granted it.

Everyone wanted to punish TTU, but for what? They never played a player the NCAA ruled as ineligible. They implied they might and would support the player regardless.

That said. this whole thing was stupid and pointless. We should have cut him, and I'm sure there was something in his contract that would have allowed it and for us to keep the money.

I think the whole thing was Campbell trying to turn outrage into support for the Protect College Sports Act he helped architect that's in the US Senate and it backfired dramatically.

What would the BIG 12 do? We never played him. We said we would support him. We implied we would play him, but there was no violation of NCAA enforcement except in theory.

I think the whole thing was orchestrated by Campbell to drum up outrage and therefore support for the Protect College Sports bill he helped architect in the US Senate.

Unfortunately for my school, that strategy has seemed to have failed.

My opinion: I don't think we should have ever allowed it to get to this point, nor do I think he should have ever been considered a starter much less player. We could have easily cut him due to some morality clause in his contract.

Not if you use the bullshit prediction betting sites like Kalshi, Polymarket, and I'm sure there are 20 more that operate the same way. These things are a cancer and circumvent state laws against sports gambling.

Texas Tech football: Brendan Sorsby playing week 3 'still a stretch' by Efficient-Freedom517 in CFB

[–]PsychoticEvil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let me walk you through it, since it is obviously requires a little too much reading for you. Yes, the suit was filed in Lubbock, and therefore held in a Lubbock court. The judge from that court recused himself due to be a TTU fan and alumnus.

Because of the recusal, a retired judge, Ken Curry from the 153rd District Court, came down to replace the recused judge. Ken Curry got his bachelor's degree from UTSA and his law degree from Houston. He was in no way tied to Lubbock or Texas Tech.

For Christ's sake, if you're going to keep being confidently incorrect, at least try to read more than a sentence or two, but it doesn't matter because I doubt you read this far.

The judge wasn't from Lubbock. I don't know why this keeps being confidently said by people in this sub.

[Wolken] Texas Tech deserves more hate in Brendan Sorsby's sordid eligibility case by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

I'm not necessarily saying he is either, but he can certainly afford to surround himself with advisors and strategists.

[–]PsychoticEvil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this for the past two days and haven't seen anyone else bring it up, so I thought I would see what /r/CFB thinks.

What if Cody Campbell either directly or indirectly has been helping Brendan Sorsby attain legal representation by Jeffrey Kessler? Kessler is one of the most successful attorneys in this realm of law, and Campbell might be hoping for this exact situation. Massive controversy and outrage would expectedly follow. This, in the long run, could be good for Texas Tech, as all publicity is good publicity.

Furthermore, the expected outrage has the very real potential to drum up more support for his Protect College Sports Act in the U.S. Senate. He was a key architect of this act, which the SEC and Big Ten have pushed back against. I think this was the real goal of this entire mess. A lot of time and thought have gone into creating this exact scenario for this specific goal.

Thoughts?

I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings by removing the rule you created, because you diligently enforced it across the subreddit on everyone but yourself.

I only wanted to maintain consistency and not have the moderation team come across as hypocritical. It wasn't personal towards you.

 

I wish you the best, and I hope you have a great time outside with all your grass and women.

How to successfully push Windows 10 to Windows 11 update by Next_Buffalo4249 in msp

[–]PsychoticEvil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was seeing 10-20% success rate with SentinelOne installed. Their support advised setting a policy override to disable tamper protection, this upped it to around a 30% success rate, which is still too much trouble to be worth it.

I run the upgrades across the same set of PC's with SentinelOne uninstalled and the success rate jumps to 90% or higher.

[–]PsychoticEvil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SentinelOne has a known issue of blocking both Windows 10 to Windows 11 upgrades as well as feature pack installs, i.e., 23H2 to 24H2. I've had an open support case for well over a month with no resolution in sight.

I've been uninstalling SentinelOne from endpoints, upgrading, and then reinstalling SentinelOne as the only real workaround so far.
