The Brendan Sorsby Gambling Scandal: Watershed Moment or Fake Outrage?
from The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima
Ken and Anthony debate whether the outrage over Brendan Sorsby's gambling is overblown, with the afternoon guys arguing that fans who looked the other way on Deshaun Watson's allegations have no standing to draw the line at gambling. The crew breaks down why the NFL and college football both have to take this seriously regardless of moral comparisons, because the integrity of a league in bed with gambling entities depends entirely on players not being able to influence outcomes. The big question heading into the season is whether Big Ten and SEC schools threatening to boycott Texas Tech actually have the leverage to force Sorsby out, or if television money makes those threats completely hollow.
