<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nGeorgia and Nebraska sent memos to staff urging a scheduling moratorium, including language offering direct instructions on how to proceed if current scheduling conversations were underway with the Red Raiders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Georgia athletic director Josh Brooks\u00a0condemned Texas Tech’s decision to play Sorsby\u00a0after the ruling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“True integrity means holding your program accountable when things go wrong, not buying custom legislation or running to a local courtroom to bypass the rules,” Brooks wrote Monday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Big Ten is expected to discuss a league-wide mandate against scheduling the Red Raiders in the future, according to\u00a0a report from ESPN.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ESPN also reports\u00a0that the Big 12 is mulling its next move and “has defined a process to address” the Sorsby ruling, starting with a call on Tuesday involving the league’s athletic directors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We had a thoughtful and productive conversation with our athletics directors today as we continue to work through the broader implications of this situation,” Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark said in a statement. “Many of our athletics directors voiced their opinions. We will continue to have open and honest dialogue amongst the group and until there is something to report, these conversations will remain within the conference.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TCU\u00a0athletic director Mike Buddie and\u00a0Kansas State\u00a0AD Gene Taylor both told ESPN that multiple Big 12 schools are informally entertaining the idea of not playing Texas Tech in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We anticipate having conversations surrounding it,”\u00a0Buddie told ESPN. “We’re all anticipating it, but this has not been formally discussed.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Coaches, ADs sound off on Sorsby injunction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Across\u00a0college football, athletic directors, coaches and conference officials are wrestling with the implications of a decision that many believe could set a precedent for years to come. What began as an isolated case has quickly evolved into a national talking point, with administrators questioning whether the NCAA is equipped to handle the growing challenges tied to gambling, player conduct and institutional accountability — and bluntly, if\u00a0the NCAA has any power as an enforcement arm\u00a0at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Utah\u00a0athletic director Mark Harlan called Sorsby’s actions “clear violations of NCAA policies and ethical guidelines,” and warned they may result in permanent damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“As someone who grew up reading about the ‘Black Sox Scandal,’ and seeing what happened to Pete Rose and just understanding how bright that line seemed to be in all of American sports, I’m stunned that there would be a question at the court level that this is acceptable,”\u00a0Florida\u00a0athletic director Scott Stricklin\u00a0told ESPN. “That’s not a judgment on the young man. It’s just that was a pretty fundamental tenet of American sports, that if you’re going to participate, you can’t gamble, especially on your own team.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
