Cincinnati sues QB for transferring to Texas Tech
Cincinnati sues Sorsby over $1M exit fee after Texas Tech transfer
Cincinnati is suing former quarterback Brendan Sorsby, alleging he breached his NIL contract with the Bearcats by refusing to pay a $1 million exit fee following his transfer to Texas Tech.
Apparently they had a $1 million exit fee in his deal and he didn't pay it. Perhaps we should do something similar. Texas Tech reportedly paying him $4 to $6 million. Somebody in Northwest Iowa needs to strike oil.

For Sale: $50
I have basketball I won at an Animal Rescue League charity blind auction 25 years ago. My winning bid was $101.00. The ball has the signatures of the entire roster and some of the coaches including Larry Eustacy. ISU went 12-19 (4-12 in Big XII) this season. Some notable player signatures include Jake Sullivan, Jared Homan, Shane Power and Tyray Pearson. I have been able to identify most of the signatures looking at the roster, but to be honest, there are a few I'm not sure of. Full roster: Jake Sullivan, Omar Bynum, Tommie King, Brandon Nicol, Brian Gahan, Ricky Morgan, Adam Schaper, Shane Power, Clint Varley, Tyray Pearson, Brad Davis, Justin Fries, Marcus Jefferson, Jared Homan, and Andrew Skoglund.
If anyone is interested in this piece of ISU basketball history. Just reply to this thread. Not sure of the potential interest level but the first to reply gets the ball. Located in Altoona, IA - pick up only.
Thanks!
