Texas quarterback Brendan Sorsby faces gambling probe | JQJO

LUBBOCK, Texas – Court filings in Lubbock, Texas, made public on Friday, May 29, 2026, allege that Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby placed at least 40 bets involving Indiana University football while he was playing for the Hoosiers. District court documents state that Sorsby used sportsbook accounts registered to a family member and several friends to place wagers over a four-year period, with the total amount bet reaching about $90,000. The records indicate that these wagers were tied specifically to collegiate football contests and that Sorsby sought to mask his participation by operating through accounts that did not bear his name.

LUBBOCK, Texas – The filings further assert that Sorsby continued his gambling activity even after transferring from Indiana to Texas Tech in December 2025, extending the pattern of betting beyond his tenure with the Hoosiers. The disclosure emerged from legal documents submitted by Sorsby’s own legal team, drawing immediate attention from Texas Tech officials and the NCAA. Authorities are reviewing the details of his betting patterns, including how frequently he wagered and the nature of the games involved, to determine whether he violated NCAA eligibility rules and whether his conduct affected the integrity of any contests in which he participated.
