Thoughts and prayers.
That’s a shame.
I hope the kid gets the help he needs to overcome the addiction.
I know I made a facetious response earlier, but you’re right. Gambling addiction is no joke. My wife is in the final work of wrapping up her family memoir, whether it goes anywhere after this remains to be seen, but her life story with her compulsive gambler father is wild. Yeah, I’m biased, but her second chapter tells of an early memory of them waiting for her dad in the lobby of a casino while he loses almost all the money they had, and it’s a tough read.
Her sister also lost over $250k to one casino in Mississippi as she struggled with her marriage.
That’s why I’m very concerned about how the pro sports leagues have embraced them. It will ultimately compromise it all.
Agreed. My flippant comment was directed at Texas Tech (who I will never have any sympathy for about anything) and not about Sorsby.
I sincerely hope he gets the help he needs.
I hope Sorsby gets the help he needs. That age group is ripe for gambling addiction. Hate all the new platforms and push by the leagues themselves. Lots of new articles on the perils of gambling and that it is not investing. The house wins. Individuals do not.
That being said, TT can pound rocks. Sorsby likely done (bet on Indiana while he was there - didn’t play so couldn’t influence game, but could have had inside info). Backup Hammond tore his ACL so won’t be ready until, well, probably timing is similar to Cam 
. They paid a lot to retool their defense, but without a qb, might be tough going.
The only game I watched Sorsby play in was against the Utes, who made him look terrible. I can’t believe TT paid him $5M.
Yes, it was fun seeing him get all whiney and blame his team. Hammond (once Morton got hurt) made us look pretty bad. Either way, not likely we play them this year, even in the CCG because they ain’t making it.
anyone else take trips to Wendover during college thinking it was easy money?
Me either 
I did. Mixed results.
I feel bad for the kids that gamble from their phones. They’ll likely never know the horrors of an I-80 rest room or stopping for a snack at that gas station in Delle.
