About this episode

The episode discusses Texas Tech's defense of its handling of the Brendan Sorsby situation, debating the implications of their messaging on player well-being and gambling concerns.

Pat Boyle and Kate Constable react to Texas Tech’s roundtable discussion defending its handling of the Brendan Sorsby situation, where school leaders framed the controversy around integrity and mental health. They debate whether the university successfully changed the narrative, if the issue is really about player well-being or gambling concerns, and whether the messaging did more harm than good. They also discuss Sorsby’s future and the argument that the 22-year-old deserves the chance to continue pursuing his dream.
