NCAA denies Texas Tech’s appeal regarding Brendan Sorsby’s eligibility
As a judge weighs whether to reinstate the eligibility of Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby, the NCAA has reiterated its decision that Sorsby’s gambling habits prevent him from playing again.
Via Justin Williams of The Athletic, the NCAA denied Texas Tech’s appeal aimed at restoring Sorsby’s eligibility to play in 2026.
It’s no surprise, and it also has no impact on the pending civil case. The question comes down to whether the judge who heard arguments in the case on June 1 decides whether to overturn the NCAA’s position.
The NCAA would surely pursue any available appeals, and time is of the essence. Sorsby’s deadline for applying for the NFL’s 2026 supplemental draft arrives on June 22.

Texas town becomes a cattle drive after 18-wheeler hits runaway herd
BREMOND, Texas (KWTX) – Early Friday morning, an 18-wheeler slammed on its breaks to avoid a herd of runaway cows, in turn causing a communitywide effort to drive the cattle back through town to their home.
According to a Facebook post from the Bremond Volunteer Fire Department, at around 5:45 a.m., the driver of the 18-wheeler noticed a herd of cattle in the road and slammed on the breaks to avoid hitting them.
Unfortunately, several cattle were hit and killed.
“The community rallied quickly,” the post said, “using their vehicles to help herd the remaining cattle through town.”

Some cows were in backyards, residential gardens, or on railroad tracks. Local cowboys and cowgirls even came to help.
Despite the sadness for the lost cattle, the post described the chaos of the incident as a “heartwarming sight,” with everyone “coming together to safely guide the rest of the herd home.”
