The Cincinnati standout picks the Red Raiders after back-to-back visits, arriving with one year of eligibility.

Overview

  • ESPN reports Sorsby chose Texas Tech following stops in Lubbock and Baton Rouge, with the quarterback ranked No. 1 in ESPN’s portal rankings.
  • Financial terms were not disclosed, though On3 and Reuters report an expected 2026 compensation of about $5 million.
  • He is expected to replace graduating starter Behren Morton, with sophomore Will Hammond rehabbing a torn ACL that could sideline him for spring practice.
