The biggest story of the college football offseason broke on Monday morning. Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has received an injunction granting him eligibility for 2026, trumping an NCAA ban for gambling activities that included wagering on his own team during his time at Indiana.
The controversial court order has everyone in the college football world talking. Numerous observers, including prominent media members and lawyers, are speaking out with strong reactions to the court order. Many are questioning the state of the sport and its governing rules with Sorsby given the green light for 2026.
Here’s a sample of the reaction on social media:

— Mit Winter (@WinterSportsLaw) June 8, 2026The Sorsby ruling is disgraceful to the integrity of CFB but also disrespectful to anyone struggling with a gambling addiction.
— Brandon Zimmerman (@BZSEC) June 8, 2026Reaction from lawyer Tom Mars, a veteran of NCAA cases: "In 40 years as a lawyer, I've never been as shocked and surprised by a court ruling." That sums the reaction on the college sports landscape today. t.co/Iukpm5ZWzN
— Pete Thamel (@PeteThamel) June 8, 2026The NCAA also issued a formal statement saying it strongly disagrees with the ruling. Per Pete Nakos of On3, the NCAA is expected to appeal the Lubbock County judge’s ruling.
