Former Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby, in a new documentary, says he has “a ton of regret” over the betting saga that ended his college football career and rocked college sports.“I know how quickly things can go wrong,” Sorsby says in his first public comments since he was ruled permanently ineligible by the NCAA earlier this year. “Everything can get ripped from you.”His comments are part of a four-part series on Texas Tech football titled “The Program,” which premieres Friday on Paramount+, chronicling a dramatic offseason for the Red Raiders on the heels of a Big 12 championship and College Football Playoff berth. Advance copies of the series were viewed by The Athletic.The doc features behind-the-scenes access at Texas Tech during Sorsby’s months-long battle for eligibility, after the quarterback transferred to Tech in January on a one-year deal worth north of $4 million. The fourth and final episode includes a sit-down interview filmed near Dallas after Sorsby left the Red Raiders program in mid-June.“I couldn’t watch sporting activities without wanting to have something at stake, wanting to have some skin on the game,” Sorsby says in the documentary, describing his gambling habits during two seasons each at Indiana and Cincinnati, including betting on his team as a member of the Hoosiers.“Whenever I got to Tech, same deal. Making more money than I ever made in my life, no reason to gamble. And yet I still did it,” Sorsby adds. “Just chasing a dopamine hit, and that’s where you lose yourself. … I’m walking around the facility and nobody knows that I have a problem gambling. Once I got found out and got caught, I went to rehab to fix my problem. And here we are.”Sorsby entered a 30-day rehab facility in April to treat his gambling addiction and admitted to wagering at least $90,000 on more than 9,000 bets over the course of his college career, according to court documents. Sorsby sued the NCAA and briefly won back his eligibility via a Texas state court, but he ultimately dropped the case and left Tech amid legal uncertainty, including a counter lawsuit by the Big 12 against Texas Tech.“I was on the phone with my parents and agent and I’m sitting there bawling my eyes out,” Sorsby says. “In my head I’m thinking I just threw everything I’ve worked for my entire life out the window. Like, it’s over.”He was later denied entrance into the NFL’s supplemental draft this summer and is training for the 2027 NFL Draft next spring.
