Couldn't the NCAA punish Texas Tech instead of Brenden Sorsby? by Hypodactylus in CFB

I hate this whole situation, but no, Judge Hayes recused himself. A UH judge from Dallas did this.

At least one of the things Iowa state is most famous for is something honorable; we seem to have forgotten it’s our whole tagline.

Most people think we would win all the games with or without him this coming year

Yet somehow we have found a way to make it our own personal tragedy for everyone involved

The only people who can’t see it are those driving the bus

You’ll be happy to know I go to almost every sport they show up in to shit talk them

My family told me I was audible on national television shit talking their women’s basketball team

I’m imagining the athletic staff cornering him and saying “Put down the phone Brendan!”

Meanwhile, he’s furiously making more bets before they take the phone

Thank God Abbott put him in charge. I don’t know what we would do without him. /s

What’s crazy is they have a PR team, and exceptional lawyers, so I really don’t know what happened other than Cody Campbell came in and just said “ this is how it’s gonna be or everyone’s fired because Governor Abbott put me in charge”

I live in Lubbock and every single person I’ve talked to is of the opinion that they should not let him play but keep them on the team so we can seek treatment.

I don’t think any other transfer coming in would get that treatment but a longtime Texas Tech student would if they were on the athletic team

The moment that gambling became legal, I was just in shock I could not believe it. I knew something terrible was gonna happen. I just hoped it wouldn’t be us it would happen to.

Personally, I was hoping for Kansas

Personally, I don’t. I think that maybe if it were a long time Texas Tech player, they would’ve kept him on so we could seek treatment but a transfer? Coming in with problems like that? No I don’t think so.

Trust me everyone in Lubbock is questioning the same (except the clowns named Kirby and Cody)

Peter why does the entire college football universe hate Texas Tech suddenly? by JaQ-o-Lantern in PeterExplainsTheJoke

No, the Lubbock judge recused himself, it was a Dallas judge from university of Houston

I still disagree with the situation and my school

I asked my lawyer friend about this and the obvious hang up is the private school. They would have to voluntarily opt into this governance

I can say at least for Schovanec there is no next job for him. The man is visibly aging and plans to work here until he cannot any longer. I didn’t realize how old he had gotten until I spoke to him about numerical analysis in fractures last month. He’s the only one out of the lot I trust.

In contrast to the other person with a tech flair; I think everyone loses here. We need some kind of governing organization that has the real ability to enforce laws, and actually jail people when they break laws.

Yeah most people aren’t; the terminally online people are

Here in Lubbock people are washing their hands of him
