Sorsby was pretty much destined to end up back in his home state of Texas playing for a school there. That said, I’m glad IU didn’t pursue him again due to all of this.

 

i still recall one of his final plays in an IU uniform.  EJ Williams standing all alone down the sideline and Sorsby threw it into the stands against Purdue.

Maybe we'll have to vacate all those losses.  Heh.

Betting on IU to win pre Cig is certainly a choice. He should be punished for doing that alone.

Hope we don't have to vacate the Akron win in 2023 . I remember the excitement in overtime.

If I break a guideline or SOP at my job, if anybody calls me on it, I am going to enter rehab. I'll call it an insubordination addiction or something. Probably exists.

I don't expect Sorsby to play this year. The NCAA is going to hammer him. He also has a pending lawsuit with Cincinnati for breach of contract.

Although I've not seen it mentioned anywhere, he HAD to have been betting at UC too for his eligibility to be in jeopardy, right?  And to check into a rehab (which, my cynical guess is that it's a performative thing to try to reduce any incoming penalties)...you wouldn't do that if you hadn't been gambling the whole time, not just at IU 3 years ago.

He'll have a ton of lawsuits.  Suing the NCAA to be able to play.  Or suing TT to keep getting his NIL $.  Or suing whoever he can to save face/$.

I've heard from locals that his dad was a real peach to deal with when Brendan was here.

@gros-louis His family was a major reason why IU did not pursue him in the portal.

One has to think he had to have bet a UC if there were thousands of bets placed.

I must be a cynic like you, because that crossed my mind as well. I hope he is serious about getting the help he needs, though. 

 

The NCAA guidelines are pretty clear on this. His career is likely over. At least at the college level.

That was weird. Some people accused him of already having mentally checked out from IU with the negotiating he had been doing with Cinci.

Now... Who knows, maybe he had bet on Purdue.
