Right out the toaster. Reliable, with some real depth.
Summary
Brendan Sorsby, a Texas Tech quarterback who admitted to placing over 9,000 bets on college and professional sports (including at least 40 bets involving his own team, Indiana football), has abandoned his legal fight to remain a college player after the NCAA declared him ineligible. He will instead attempt to enter the NFL through the supplemental draft, following a failed preliminary injunction and an embarrassing 21-minute conference-room hearing.
