Ex-Texas Tech QB Regrets Betting Scandal - KNRS

Sorsby admitted to placing thousands of bets, including on games he played in while at Indiana. He described chasing a "dopamine hit" as the driving force behind the habit. The NCAA ruled him ineligible after discovering he had bet on Indiana football games, and his request for reinstatement was denied.

Sorsby had transferred to Texas Tech from Cincinnati, but his college career ended before he could take a snap for the Red Raiders. He entered a residential treatment program for his addiction in April, around the same time he arrived in Lubbock. The documentary, directed by Micah Brown, covers that stretch of his life in detail.

For Tech fans who followed the quarterback carousel last season, this fills in a lot of blanks. Sorsby never played a game in a Red Raiders uniform, and until now the full picture of why was murky. A gambling problem that started at Indiana followed him through Cincinnati and eventually cost him his eligibility entirely.

Sorsby is one of several college athletes caught up in a wave of sports betting investigations since legal wagering expanded across the country.
