Texas Tech Red Raiders (official thread)

NCAA is trying to do what's right. TT and their booster are the ones taking it to court.
Oh I agree but no faith they’ll stand their ground in the face of pressure from boosters, universities, or the conference.

Just never know. There was a team that essentially fixed football games for 2.5 years and they got nothing. Then there was a team with an ineligible player and they vacated wins lol

No one knows what’s real with the NCAA

I think they'll fight here. If Sorsby wins, the precedent (and it will be formally legal) will completely open up gambling to athletes. There's no wiggle room to back down. With those cunts up north, the entire coaching staff had bailed and the introduction of radios had made a repeat unlikely. They still should have gotten the hammer though.

Sorsby's filing does make one good point in that the ncaa is punishing athletes for taking part in a legal activity that the schools and conferences themselves profit off of. That hypocrisy might be the ncaa's undoing.

The oil oligarch is paying for all this. They'll shop it to a friendly local judge. He'll grant an injunction allowing him to play until the case is over. Then, the extremely high priced (chairs the executive committee at Winston & Strawn) mouthpiece will bury the court in continuances and paperwork until the season is over.

Mark it, Dude.
Just sayin': That "friendly local judge" may have just recused himself......:lol:

Judge assigned to Brendan Sorsby case vs. NCAA recuses himself

The Texas judge initially assigned to Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby's eligibility lawsuit against the NCAA has recused himself.

Judge Phillip Hays grew up in Lubbock -- where the lawsuit was filed -- and earned his undergraduate and law degrees from Texas Tech. Hays recused himself with no explanation in a court filing Wednesday, Bloomberg reported, and the administrative judge who will pick Hays' replacement has no ties to the school.
