NCAA Investigates Cincinnati Over Sorsby Gambling

The NCAA has sent a formal letter of inquiry to the University of Cincinnati regarding former quarterback Brendan Sorsby's gambling issues during his two seasons with the program.

The NCAA wants to know what Cincinnati knew about Sorsby's gambling during his time with the Bearcats. Sorsby, who was declared permanently ineligible by the NCAA in April after placing thousands of impermissible sports bets, spent two seasons at Cincinnati before transferring to Texas Tech. Cincinnati coach Scott Satterfield declined to comment on the reports, while a school spokesperson stated they have had continuous conversations with the NCAA but believe no athletics officials were aware of any impermissible sports wagering. newssport.cv

Sorsby acknowledged placing at least 165 impermissible bets in 2024 totaling at least $38,000, including three on Cincinnati men's basketball. After being banned, he sued the NCAA but later dropped his legal battle and applied for the NFL's supplemental draft.
