Sportradar Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Announced Just Days After Claims Company Did Business With "Illegal" Sportsbooks

Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby to Enter Gambling Addiction Program Amid NCAA Investigation
April 28, 2026 (9 am EDT)
Texas Tech transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby, one of college football's top returning players, is checking into a residential treatment program for a gambling addiction, the school announced Monday.
Sorsby's decision to seek treatment, according to sources, came in the wake of the discovery of Sorsby making thousands of online bets on a variety of sports via a gambling app, which jeopardizes his eligibility with Texas Tech.
The NCAA is investigating Sorsby's gambling, according to sources, as the organization forbids athletes from betting on both college and pro sports.
Texas Tech said in a statement that the university "is committed to supporting Brendan through his recovery process and to ensure his long-term health and well-being."
According to sources, Sorsby bet on Indiana football while redshirting for the Hoosiers as a true freshman in 2022, a season in which he played in a single game as a reserve. The bets in 2022, according to sources, were on Indiana to win and none came in a game in which Sorsby appeared. (source: ESPN)
