BIG 12 SQUAD - Brendan Sorsby may PLAY in 2026 | How this impacts TCU

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 21 May 2026 22:00:00 GMT

Texas Tech’s postseason dreams hang in the balance as Brendan Sorsby’s NCAA eligibility battles mental health claims and strict gambling rules. Are the Red Raiders’ hopes tied to this high-stakes legal fight? The panel unpacks Sorsby’s unprecedented injunction, the Big 12’s reputation, and the lingering shadow of betting controversies on college football. Key questions arise: Can Sorsby’s “fitting in” defense sway the NCAA, or does it set a precarious precedent for mental health in sports? Elsewhere in the Big 12, coaching headlines buzz with Kyle Whittingham’s Utah succession plan, Kalani Sitake’s near-move to Penn State, and the ongoing arms race in NIL and salaries. On the diamond, Oklahoma State and West Virginia chase baseball and softball glory, while program-building and postseason snubs stoke debate. Is the Big 12 undervalued in baseball, and what will it take for Baylor or West Virginia to break through? The squad tackles all the hot topics you can’t afford to miss.

EVERYTHING You Need to Know About the Big 12's New Collapse

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 14 May 2026 09:00:00 GMT

The "open for business" era of the Big 12 reached a fascinating crossroads this month. While Commissioner Brett Yormark successfully finalized a league-wide partnership with RedBird Capital Partners, the response from individual member schools has been a resounding "no thanks" to the optional $30 million credit lines.

As of May 2026, more than half of the conference—including BYU, Baylor, TCU, Texas Tech, Iowa State, Cincinnati, UCF, West Virginia, Houston, Arizona, and Kansas State—have officially declined the capital infusion.

The Math of "Expensive Money"

The primary deterrent is the high cost of the capital. The RedBird offer reportedly carries a double-digit interest rate (near 10%). For most of these institutions, this is considered "expensive money."

Alternative Financing: Major public universities like Houston or Cincinnati can often secure traditional loans or issue municipal bonds at significantly lower rates, typically between 4% and 6%.

Repayment Structure: If a school opts in, the Big 12 would withhold a portion of their annual media rights distribution for repayment. Many Athletic Directors are unwilling to "garnish" their future guaranteed income for a high-interest cash advance.

Protecting Autonomy

Beyond the balance sheet, there is a deep-seated fear of "corporate creep." Accepting private equity invites an external voice into the room—one focused on quarterly returns rather than traditional collegiate values. Schools like BYU have cited a "debt-free" philosophy rooted in their institutional identity, while others fear that a default could lead to a private firm gaining operational oversight or even an equity stake in the department.

The Strategic "Wait and See"

Yormark’s deal gives schools a one-year window to change their minds. Most programs are choosing to wait and see how the House v. NCAA settlement and new revenue-sharing rules actually impact their cash flow before tethering themselves to a private equity firm. While the optics of a "mass rejection" might look like a blow to Yormark, the deal still provides the conference office with $12.5 million to invest in new commercial ventures, proving that the Big 12 is still innovating—even if the schools are playing it safe.

Jaden Craig facing North Carolina in his debut is great because it gives a quick baseline of how he'll perform vs P4 competition, force him to handle NC star players and gives time to work on flaws that will arise. Sonny Dykes isn't under any real pressure this year. Gavin Sykes gives TCU another facilitator to pair with Brock Harding.

BONUS: Is Texas Tech FIRING Tim Tadlock, SHOCKING Big 12 Softball NCAA Tournament News

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 11 May 2026 21:00:00 GMT

The current landscape for Tim Tadlock and Texas Tech baseball is arguably the most turbulent era in his 14-season tenure. For a program that reached Omaha four times between 2014 and 2019, the 2026 season has been a jarring departure from "The Standard."

Here is a breakdown of the extreme struggles facing the Red Raiders as of mid-May 2026.

1. A Historical Regression

After missing the NCAA Tournament in 2024 and 2025, the pressure was on for a "bounce-back" year. Instead, the Red Raiders have spent much of 2026 fighting just to stay relevant.

Conference Freefall: Tech currently sits at 9–18 in Big 12 play (26–25 overall).

The Bottom of the Pack: For the first time in the Tadlock era, Texas Tech is mired in 12th place in the conference standings, narrowly clinging to the final qualifying spot for the Big 12 Tournament

RPI Nightmare: The team’s RPI has plummeted to #132, effectively eliminating any chance of an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. The only path forward is winning the conference tournament—a tall task for a team that has lost 10 of its last 14 games.

2. The Pitching Crisis

The "identity" of Texas Tech baseball—explosive offense paired with competitive pitching—has become lopsided. While hitters like Jesse Rusinek and Caden Ferraro are batting over .400, the pitching staff has been unable to hold leads.

Inconsistency on the Mound: Tech has allowed double-digit runs in multiple conference series, including a mid-season sweep at the hands of TCU that sent the season into a downward trajectory.

Road Woes: The team is just 3–9 on the road in Big 12 play, struggling to find a Friday night starter who can consistently silence opposing crowds.

3. The "Hot Seat" Conversation

While Tadlock is a legend in Lubbock with 470+ wins, the three-year postseason drought has led to unprecedented external chatter regarding his job security.

The 2026 Ceiling: Analysts have noted that Tech's odds of even making the Big 12 Tournament are a "toss-up" at 40-50%.

Fan Sentiment: The frustration stems from the contrast between the 2010s "Omaha era" and the current reality of fighting for a #12 seed.

EXPLAINED: Every Big 12 Team is DENYING Brett Yormark's Free $30 Million

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 07 May 2026 13:00:00 GMT

The air around Big 12 headquarters usually smells like expansion and relentless optimism, but lately, there’s a new, colder scent in the room: private equity. While Commissioner Brett Yormark made history this month by finalizing a league-wide deal with RedBird Capital Partners, the "free money" isn't being scooped up as fast as many expected.

As of May 7, 2026, a wave of member schools—including TCU, Baylor, Cincinnati, Houston, and BYU—have officially declined the school-level $30 million credit option. On the surface, turning down eight figures in an era of $20 million-a-year athlete revenue sharing seems like madness. But for these universities, the "miracle" of private equity looks a lot like a high-interest trap from a bygone era.

The rejection is fueled by two primary fears that echo the old-school skepticism of the Southwest Conference days. First, the math doesn't favor the bold: the $30 million is a line of credit, not a gift, carrying a double-digit interest rate. For stable athletic departments, their own universities can often secure much more favorable financing without the "predatory" strings of a PE firm.

Second, and perhaps more importantly, is the fear of losing the "soul" of the program. Accepting the money invites another voice into the room—one that cares about quarterly returns more than homecoming traditions. If a school defaults, the private equity firm could theoretically trade that debt for equity, giving corporate outsiders a seat at the table of collegiate governance. For the proud institutions of the Big 12, the promise of quick cash isn't worth the risk of a corporate takeover. They’d rather keep the "For Sale" sign off the locker room, betting that they can survive the new frontier of college sports on their own terms.

HUGE: Jaden Craig’s Ceiling DEPENDS on 2 Massive TCU Position Battles

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 07 May 2026 07:00:00 GMT

5 position battles will define TCU Football's 2026 campaign, and 2 of them will determine if Jaden Craig can reach his ceiling. A 24 team playoff has been suggested by the AFCA and I'd be a fan of it.
