And they certainly have tried to fight it in any avenue that they've had available to them as well.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

I mean, I even, again, I go back to like they've talked a lot about like, you know, we're going to support him any way that we can.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And I do think that there is legitimate reason

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

I do think that they legitimately want to support him, but that doesn't mean that he needs to be playing college football this fall.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And I think that that's something that, again, the backlash to this has been very significant.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And there are schools that have said, we are not going to schedule Texas Tech in any sport.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And by the way, if Texas Tech also wants to be one of those teams that's on the right side whenever the next thing of college football comes, be it a Super League or anything else,

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

I mean, making enemies like this might not be the best way to go about it.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

Yeah, the biggest thing that I've been curious about, and look, this is speculation.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

This is not reporting.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

You know, I'm really curious, though, if

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

the pressure gets to Brendan Sorsby himself and sort of says like, look, this isn't a statement about like me being bigger than the team.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

This is me being made bigger than the entire athletic department, than the entire, you know, conference that I play in.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And I mean, look, if you obviously just to take them fully at their word, right?

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

Like Brendan Swarzy has a diagnosed gambling disorder and has a diagnosed anxiety disorder.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And I'll tell you what, like, I don't know whether it's the best thing for somebody with a serious anxiety disorder to be the number one villain in all of college football, right?

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

Like maybe that's not actually the best thing for him and his recovery, you know, whatever you want to say.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

So,

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

I'm curious if this reaches a point where both sides have a conversation and say, this is not good for either of us.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

But I do think that Texas Tech is ultimately going to let Brendan Sorensen make that decision.
