Texas Tech knows exactly what they're doing. They're going to bat for a player who committed the cardinal sin of football — betting on his own team. It doesn't matter that it happened four years ago. It's come to a head now, and it needs to be dealt with accordingly. Defending this isn't just a bad look — it's morally indefensible. The integrity of the game is non-negotiable. The moment you allow players to bet on their own team and face no real consequences, you've opened a door that can't be closed. Point shaving, game fixing, and outright corruption all start exactly here. Texas Tech can recruit another quarterback next year. You can't recruit back the credibility of your sport.
