Texas Tech faces turmoil as Brendan Sorsby’s gambling issue triggers questions over player vetting and potential NCAA penalties—could this shake up the College Football Playoff picture? Salty breaks down the evolving quarterback controversy, whether Cincinnati and Texas Tech fulfilled their reporting duties, and how Sorsby’s absence could open the door for another SEC contender. The conversation digs into how NIL deals, coaching seats, and program reputations are shifting the landscape for teams like Notre Dame, Miami, and Indiana.
