Brendan Sorsby will not play for Texas Tech this season. The quarterback, who was set to play after a judge granted an injunction forbidding the NCAA from enforcing its gambling rules, has decided to enter the NFL's supplemental draft.   Will Hammond, who backed Behren Morton last season and who is coming off a torn ACL, will be the new QB1 in Lubbock. The news comes on the same day that the Big 12 filed a lawsuit in federal court against Texas attorney general Ken Paxton and various parties connected to Texas Tech. Paxton had threatened lawsuits from Texas Tech if Big 12 presidents voted to sanction the school.   Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari Wasserman Producer: River Bailey   Interested in partnering with the show?
