Texas Tech declares QB Brendan Sorsby ineligible
Key Points:
- After two seasons at Cincinnati, Sorsby signed a $6 million name, image, and likeness (NIL) deal with Texas Tech, choosing Tech over LSU.
- Sorsby, a Lake Dallas native, was a top transfer portal player last winter after recording 2,800 yards and 27 touchdowns at Cincinnati.
- Cincinnati filed a lawsuit claiming Sorsby breached his contract and owes a buyout payment, but Sorsby's attorneys have moved to dismiss the suit, arguing it is invalid under Ohio law.
- Sorsby hired prominent attorney Jeffrey Kessler, known for high-profile sports cases, to help regain his eligibility.
