Summary
Brendan Sorsby lost his bid to regain 2026 eligibility, leaving the former Texas Tech quarterback unable to return to college football and opening a path to the NFL supplemental draft.
The NCAA rejection followed findings that Sorsby gambled on his own Indiana team; a related report said he admitted 40 wagers on Indiana football as part of more than 2,900 bets totaling $90,000.
Tony Pauline reported teams view Sorsby as a late first- or early second-round supplemental prospect, meaning any club selecting him would forfeit a 2027 pick in that range.
Sorsby enters that process after a strong 2025 season, throwing 27 touchdowns against five interceptions and leading the Big 12 with a 155.5 passer rating.
