Paul Finebaum has sounded off on the recent news that has shaken the college football world. Brendan Sorsby, after receiving a preliminary injunction from a Lubbock County judge on Monday, will play college football in 2026 as it currently stands.
Finebaum, while discussing the matter on Get Up with Mike Greenberg on Tuesday, called on Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark, insisting he’s the only entity left who can stop this by declaring Sorsby ineligible. Finebaum realizes that this course of action would be litigated, but believes doing something is better than nothing in this case.
“The statement yesterday from the Big 12 commissioner is interesting because he really didn’t say anything,” Finebaum told Greenberg. “I believe that Brett Yormark is probably the only none left that can stop this, he can declare Sorsby ineligible, yes it would be litigated, but at least somebody would stand up. Until now, nobody has really done anything, especially this court in Texas.”
Greenberg then asked Finebaum what he thought of the report that said Big Ten officials were expected to meet this week and discuss a potential mandate against playing the Red Raiders moving forward.
Here’s what he had to say:
“That would be unique, because if these schools say, ‘we’re not playing them,’ then you talk about contracts, not only with the league but with television networks, then you have mass chaos,” Finebaum said. “It’s really about the university. Texas Tech is the culprit here. They have agreed and supported Sorsby in this case, and they’re the ones that probably should say we’re not going through with it. I don’t think these schools who say they won’t play them are going to fare very well, because ultimately the Big 12 has to make a determination, if that game is scheduled and you don’t play, you’re going to have to forfeit. Then, it goes back to commissioner Brett Yormark.”
