By doing so and nothing more, the Big 12 could send a message to Texas Tech that they have already made a decision will let Texas Tech decide whether it’s willing to risk all its chips by playing a game of “chicken” with the conference.

Kirby - you can support his recovery while telling him that he can’t suit up for Texas Tech. That is an option. Everyone can see right through you.

No one cares at all about Texas Tech They don’t want dudes who gambled on their sport to be able to play. Texas Tech is delusional
"We're a target... if this had happened at LSU, people would say ah it's LSU... but it happened at Texas Tech. They don't want to play because they know [Sorsby] is good and they don't want us to be as competitive." Cody Campbell on schools trying to boycott playing Texas Tech

Thanks for the opportunity @Clowfb
My friend and attorney Chad Hatmaker, who has experience in eligibility cases, summed up Sorsby ruling well. “This might be the case that actually generates real reform. That’s absolutely ridiculous. If you have an illness as an employee, you don’t get to break the rules because of it. An alcoholic can’t come to work drunk without getting fired.”

Tennessee in the NCAA Tournament the last four years: * 2023 - Sweet 16 * 2024 - Elite 8 * 2025 - Elite 8 * 2026 - Sweet 16 Rick Barnes - most under-appreciated coach in the sport. Not a bad run for a guy they said "couldn't win in March."🍊🍊

Tennessee’s staff did a great job scouting Miami’s stuff today. They were really well prepared.

The NCAA has adopted emergency legislation specifying DI athletes can lose eligibility if NIL deals aren’t reported. If a school discovers an athlete may not have reported a deal it has 2 days to review & report to the CSC. If a deal isn’t then reported, athlete is ineligible.

Such an odd search Tennessee seems to be setting up here. I have NEVER seen a situation more unified with Tennessee players, former players, fans, local media, national media and others in saying exactly who Tennessee should hire. Danny White ignoring those pleas would be wild.

A few things on Tony V. First, I’m really happy for him. And I have no idea if it will work out well. But if he wanted to make the jump this feels like the right time and opportunity to do it. He’s earned the right to do so. Second, if I’m Tennessee I lock up Frank and Josh immediately, they have been a massively important part of this run. Hate that Tony is no longer in college baseball, excited to see how this all plays out👊🏼

"There’s zero reason why Tennessee should take a significant step back moving forward, but (Danny) White will need to approach this situation with delicate hands — something he didn’t often do in his interactions with Vitello." @KendallRogers on what's next for @Vol_Baseball ⤵️

Lol
The College Sports Commission is now three months into its existence. How's it going? I polled more than a dozen ADs around the country, from the G5 to P4, about their experiences with the CSC so far. sportsbusinessjournal.com/Ar…
