Everyone wants Texas Tech to “do the right thing.” This is college sports, when has that ever been a thing? Focus on ending judicial interference rather than bash the Red Raiders for doing what almost everyone else would do (or has done). Column for @espn espn.com/college-footba…

Dan the Man!

@NicoleAuerbach @mrjoshuaperry I don’t blame other schools for being upset at the injunction or at Tech for backing him and playing him. I just think we also need to examine this through the lens that normalizing sports betting has become and fix that before declaring the sport ruined forever.

@NicoleAuerbach @mrjoshuaperry To add that Michigan title run actually made me want to watch them more.

30+ minutes on the Brendan Sorsby saga from me and @mrjoshuaperry: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rus…

One thing not being talked about with all the “safe guards” sports betting companies say they have that prevents this from happening why are we not investigating how these failed? Let’s look into these companies

@CodyC64 @grok @GeorgiaFootball Blaming Tech for this mess is such a bizarre take. We’re doing what any other program would do.

@adamfrank79 @AriWasserman @AndyStaples You clearly don’t know the history of the criminal justice system in America.

@CollegefootBoal @AriWasserman @AndyStaples You’re absolutely correct - and when people get caught they get punished

Granted I have only listened to 7 mins for @AndyStaples and @AriWasserman and I also recognize I am a Tech fan but this romanticized view of the “integrity” of college football is such malarkey. Also that betting on your own team is SO bad.

@adamfrank79 @AndyStaples @AriWasserman You clearly don’t know the history of being a tech fan.

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman It has to be embarrassing to be a Texas Tech fan right now

@COLPowPow @AndyStaples @AriWasserman We grew up in the state of Texas.

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman What the heck is wrong with you people?!?!

@Manning4USCong @AndyStaples @AriWasserman I could definitely misunderstand it. I’m not a lawyer and do not pretend to play one on tv. If that is the case then why is everyone acting like this is the ruling then?

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman Again you misunderstand the ruling. The judge only ruled the NCAA can’t declare him ineligible until after the case is decided. There was no ruling on the merits of the case.

@BradleyMik85231 @AndyStaples @AriWasserman And if he doesn’t I won’t argue it’s unjust. We will let it play out in court. I like our odds though

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman that's gonna appealed, you know it. And watch what the conference is threatening. He'll never play another down in college

@Manning4USCong @AndyStaples @AriWasserman A judge in Lubbock, TX says that is incorrect. Hard stop

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman You do realize that isn’t an argument right? If a player gets caught placing bets on their own team they are suspended indefinitely. Hard stop.

@BradleyMik85231 @AndyStaples @AriWasserman A judge in Lubbock, TX has ruled you can. So I guess you are wrong in that front. Please tell me how much integrity College Football has?

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman #CardinalSin brotha. You can't bet and continue to play b/c it undermines the integrity of the game. Shutup and sit down while the adults talk

@Lalligangof9 @AriWasserman @AndyStaples I think sports will be ok. They have been around longer than any of us have been alive and will endure long after we are gone. If you can’t see that, then I can’t help you.

@CollegefootBoal @AriWasserman @AndyStaples If you can’t see why players betting on sports especially their sport and their team is death to sports I can’t help you.

@Manning4USCong @AndyStaples @AriWasserman That doesn’t mean it isn’t happening though

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman Yes. That’s why not a single league allows it in any sport.

@gnglonghorn @AndyStaples @AriWasserman I am not but does it happen? Yes, do I think those people should be punished? Yes! Are they? No. So why aren’t we all talking about them instead of some college kid betting on games. THIS IS MY POINT

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @AriWasserman Are you ok with insider trading? Are you okay with the swamp senators getting rich? I’m gonna guess you aren’t right? This is worse!

@AriWasserman @AndyStaples @Chan_man0 @AriWasserman hahahaha! I truly am not trying to rationalize Sorby. I am as shocked as anyone with this ruling. What i have been trying to get you to rationalize for me is your belief that College Football before this was the beacon of integrity.

@CollegefootBoal @AndyStaples @Chan_man0 Matt, you’re going to snap your neck in half if you contort yourself a single additional inch rationalizing this.

@AndyStaples @Chan_man0 @AriWasserman News flash @AndyStaples life is complicated

@AndyStaples @Chan_man0 @AriWasserman Or else you wouldn’t be trying to persuade me otherwise
