@T__Baloney @superjmstone @ChadBrendel The NCAA and NY Post are far from Cody’s mouthpieces. The two sources were staff members at Cincy, unless you think 3rd parties could get direct knowledge some other way, but there you go not actually reading shit again

@jonkappes1985 @superjmstone @ChadBrendel You think UC leaked the story to Cody Campbell's mouthpiece? I swear you've never used your brain. His gambling was reported to Tech weeks earlier. It was going to come out. Cody Campbell timed the story's release. Let me guess, the 2 sources were Sorsby and Campbell.

Or maybe, and stay with me now, it's because he was addicted to gambling and knew he was breaking every rule in the book so he kept it hidden from an entity that A) had no hard evidence he was breaking the rules and B) no subpoena power to investigate any further. But you clowns are so desperate to absolve yourself from wrongdoing you refuse to see the reality right in front of your face.

@ShonenVentures @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne Dude this is twitter! If you’re looking for top notch legal advice you’re fucked

@jonkappes1985 @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne So you don't know either and just have fun bullshitting.

The irony of Texas Tech threatening a breach of contact action when that same university breached their employment contract with Mike Leach, never paid him, and then hid behind sovereign immunity to avoid paying out his contract.

@ShonenVentures @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne Require no, but create more complexity than you seem capable of comprehending yes!

@jonkappes1985 @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne We've gone through this many times. The injunction DOES NOT require him to take the field as the starting QB!!!!

@ShonenVentures @TomMarsLaw The current injunction would be enforced in Lubbock. Only a federal antitrust case would move to Dallas, and that the grounds to file that hasn’t happened yet.

@jonkappes1985 @TomMarsLaw Appeals trial would be in Amarillo County. Big12 vs Tech would be in Dallas County.

A super majority of the Big 12 directors (schools) already have almost unlimited discretion to sanction Texas Tech. What’s more, they also have the authority to amend the Big 12 Bylaws at any time to specifically require the immediate suspension or dismissal of any school which knowingly plays an athlete who has admitted to placing bets on his own team.

@ShonenVentures @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne You see no permanent court means no standard docket. You really should google your questions and us both time.

@jonkappes1985 @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne Show us the case load for this septuagenarian then 😂

@OneFlyMule @JarodBonine @bretthbayne But it’s makes Texas the most likely venue doesn’t it? I can’t tell the future, neither can you, but I can reason what the most likely outcome is.

@jonkappes1985 @JarodBonine @bretthbayne This case will be decided by the Big 12 bylaws & whether they’re allowed to punish members. Venue will matter & under the same Section you posted earlier, where Big 12 could argue change of venue. Just bc Texh is in TX doesn’t guarantee the venue.

@olivia_duh @ChadBrendel The August prior to the date of the article is 2025. The August immediately prior the 2025 football season is also 2025. You idiots can’t use calendars either?!?!?

@jonkappes1985 @ChadBrendel Prior to the 2025 season is… *drumroll please* August of 2024 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

Prohibet notifies the school and conference any time there is an alert. Cincinnati handled it exactly by the book. Unfortunately Sorsby lied and deceived the compliance department when confronted. Curious. Why didn't Tech know he was committing federal wire fraud?

@ChiliEnjoyer If Nebraska doesn’t like gambling on sports, they’ll be coming for you soon

Nebraska and Cincinnati fans traded a lot of banter last season, but for the most part, everyone was pretty cool about both dishing it out and taking it. Even the most heated exchanges usually ended on good terms, if not downright friendly. I knew there was a reason I liked Nebraska.

@ShonenVentures @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne When the facts don’t support your argument, just shrug. Brought to you by the UT debate society!

@jonkappes1985 @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne In general... sure, him in particular at 77... dubious.

@ShonenVentures @TomMarsLaw An unsympathetic victim in Lubbock county that just won a surprise injunction but ok?!?!?

@jonkappes1985 @TomMarsLaw Threats are used by attorneys all the time. That doesn't mean damages would be awarded - particularly with an unsympathetic "victim"

@JarodBonine @OneFlyMule @bretthbayne You don’t have enough clients. Go bill some hours Jarod. I’m sure your law partners would appreciate it.

@jonkappes1985 @OneFlyMule @bretthbayne Go read any federal complaint against a corporate defendant. Every one will state where the corporate defendant is incorporated because it’s relevant to both personal jurisdiction and venue. I don’t have enough characters to fully explain.

@ShonenVentures @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne That’s not how injunctions work but ok

@jonkappes1985 @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne There is no recourse to Sorsby so long as his NIL deal is honored 🤷‍♂️

@JarodBonine @OneFlyMule @bretthbayne The statute states where any defendant resides, and conference members reside in multiple states. You know this venue will be decided by the fact that the league and Tech are both located in Texas. Folks never trust a lawyer with enough free time to be on twitter!

@jonkappes1985 @OneFlyMule @bretthbayne You don’t know what you’re talking about. Where a corporate defendant resides under fed law is the state of incorporation (somewhere in Delaware) and the location of its principal office in the state (Dallas). State of incorporation is highly relevant for jurisdiction & venue

@ShonenVentures @TomMarsLaw Better be able to to prove he actually broke it and it’s not a back end way to treat him as ineligible due to all of this nonsense, otherwise he’s coming for damages. Have you read the court order or kessler’s letter to the big 12 today?

@jonkappes1985 @TomMarsLaw Don't be dense. If Tech were to find Sorsby violated any team rule whatsoever, they would be able to suspend him for it. Tech is only using this crap as a fig leaf to cover for their desperate desire for FB relevancy at all cost.

@olivia_duh @ChadBrendel Here’s a public report of an alert that occurred after the one in 2024. Holy shit I’m starting to think they don’t teach you guys how to read in Ohio.

@jonkappes1985 @ChadBrendel

@T__Baloney @superjmstone @ChadBrendel You’re a special boy aren’t you Tony? Sorsby filed the motion but UC was represented at the hearing. I’m saying your corrupt school dropped non-public information as soon as it was obvious the kid was fully gone from their program. Take your Ritalin so you can keep up

@jonkappes1985 @superjmstone @ChadBrendel Lol. Sorsby filed the motion. Not UC. You're saying UC had a guy write a hit piece on themselves when Sorsby was trying to have the lawsuit dismissed? That must be some Texas Tech level of logic.

@ShonenVentures @TomMarsLaw Holy shit are you actually working backwards on my posts? I’ve already answered this for you directly

@jonkappes1985 @TomMarsLaw Sorsby has no leg to stand on when it comes to "playing" at Tech. The coach could just say that in his judgement as the HC of the team, that Sorsby isn't ready, or that another player gives the team the best chance to win. Period. Heck he could violate a team rule tomorrow.

@T__Baloney @superjmstone @ChadBrendel Yup, and the day they knew max media attention would be on the case. But they didn’t know he was gambling right? Sorsby must have outed himself in some weird 5d chess move. Cincinnati can’t be as corrupt as they look?!?!?

@jonkappes1985 @superjmstone @ChadBrendel The lawsuit had been filed long before that. That was the day he filed a motion to dismiss.

@ShonenVentures @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne Sure, but the tally on damages is still running. Treating him as ineligible. In violation of the court order escalates those damages

@jonkappes1985 @ColonelRebel87 @bretthbayne Besides... the irreparable damage has already been done to Sorsby's reputation. Dude is a pariah now which doesn't bode well for his NFL aspirations. This ruling puts the squeeze on Tech. They have to pay him, but at the same time keep him on the sidelines, so no ROI.

@OneFlyMule @JarodBonine @bretthbayne Could but north Dallas is far more likely given the HQ of the league and Tech being in Texas

@jonkappes1985 @JarodBonine @bretthbayne The defendant would be the Big 12 and could ask to have the case moved to federal district & argue Delaware is the correct district, assuming their by-laws established said actions.
