Big 12 and Texas Tech Settle Gambling Lawsuit | Texas Tech Red Raiders Football News

Big 12 and Texas Tech have quietly dropped their lawsuit over QB Brendan Sorsby’s eligibility, resolving the drama internally after a tense summer standoff. Sorsby, who transferred in with a $5M NIL deal, announced his departure just hours after the suit was filed — and now both sides are moving forward together as a unified 16-team conference. The Big 12 has also unanimously adopted a new rule requiring schools to shoulder legal costs in future disputes, aiming to prevent similar conflicts. Texas Tech kicked off its season without Sorsby, winning 33-10 against Abilene Christian with Will Hammond at QB, and is now ranked No. 12 heading into tougher games ahead.
