A message to the Texas Tech community from our leadership.

I genuinely don’t see the problem. I’m sorry… I just don’t. I do see where gambling IS a MAJOR problem - so much so that like…. You’re being naive if you don’t think there are athletes at your school or on your pro teams who are actively gambling. Like, I understand addiction VERY well and I don’t think people realize how much money is being spent or how many people are going down this path… we have a MAJOR mental health crisis looming bc people can gamble from their fucking phones. Families, careers, and life savings are going to be destroyed within a few years and people are not talking about that enough. 67% of college students are high frequency bettors. 16% engage in the highest risk gambling. So, I do think it is irresponsible for the NCAA to set this precedent where a student athlete seeks treatment and transfers to a state where sports gambling is NOT legal. It’s the classic criminalization and punishment over concern for mental health and well-being. The owner of a freakin NBA team quite literally made her fortune off of gambling. Is it ok for an NBA owner to profit off of an upset loss of her own team? If yes, them there should be no problem with a kid gambling and then seeking treatment I just think it’s really wild to ignore the public health crisis that we are facing, but not preparing for while simultaneously acting like Texas fkn Tech and Brandon Sorsby are the problem. It’s happening ACROSS college sports.
