LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) – Texas Tech football staff has been busy this weekend, landing key targets in the transfer portal. The biggest development came Sunday night, when former Cincinnati quarterback Brendan Sorsby announced he has committed to the Red Raiders.
Several national sports sites ranked Sorsby as the top player in the portal.
Sorsby, who played high school football at Lake Dallas, has spent the last four seasons in the Midwest. He was first at Indiana, then transferred to Cincinnati, where he played the last two seasons.
Sorsby was named to the 2025 All Big 12 second team. This season he threw for 2,800 yards and 27 touchdowns and ran for 580 yards and nine touchdowns.
Sorsby played in Lubbock in 2024, when Tech defeated Cincinnati 44-41. Sorsby threw for 426 yards that day, on 31 of 45 passes for four touchdowns and one interception.
Let’s goooo! Texas Tech got a taste this year, want more, and are building a dynasty. We are hungrier and more committed than ever before!
Each Texas Tech player will be surrounded and supported by an elite cast of teammates, a sound culture and program, a solid and stable… https://t.co/QCwAza8R7w
