The Texas Tech Red Raiders have reportedly not decided on quarterback Brendan Sorsby’s future in the wake of his gambling scandal from his early career with the Indiana Hoosiers , beyond entering him into rehab, with the program’s rev-share agreement not due for a payment over the next several weeks.

Still, many are speaking of Sorsby in Lubbock as a “what if” more than a tangible asset this fall as TTU looks to repeat as Big 12 champions.
