Commits to Texas Tech Sorsby has committed to Texas Tech, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After a 48-hour visit flurry, Sorsby has decided that Texas Tech is where he will transfer to for 2026. The quarterback cited coaching staff, facilities and overall culture as to why he selected TTU. Their last point includes an aggressive portal approach, which helped Tech finish atop the Big 12 Conference last season. Texas Tech's spending spree continues, and senior quarterback Behren Morton no longer being college-eligible ensures that Sorsby will be the 2026 Red Raiders' primary QB. During 2025, he completed 61.6 percent of 336 pass attempts for 2,800 yards and a 27-5 TD-INT ratio. Sorsby logged more than 35 total touchdowns, scoring nine times on 100 carries.

Will enter transfer portal Sorsby will enter the transfer portal as he waits for feedback from NFL talent evaluators, per Pete Thamel of ESPN.com.

Impact Sorsby is coming off a career year in which he tossed for 2,800 yards, 27 touchdowns and five interceptions with 580 yards and nine scores on the ground to boot. Now, the gunslinger is exploring every possible avenue for his future. He'll reportedly look to get an NFL Draft grade before deciding whether to return to college, but if he does come back to school, it won't be at Cincinnati. Sorsby has one more year of eligibility remaining.

Mum on bowl participation Sorsby may not play in Cincinnati's bowl game against Navy on Jan. 2, per Russ Heltman of Bearcats Talk.

Impact Sorsby has yet to commit either way in terms of playing in Cincinnati's bowl game, but it doesn't sound all that promising that the star gunslinger will suit on on Jan. 2 against the Midshipmen. Sorsby is enjoying the aftermath of a career year in which he tossed for 2,800 yards, 27 touchdowns and five interceptions while adding 580 yards and nine scores on the ground as well. With one more year of eligibility, he's likely gauging the transfer portal as well as any potential opportunities at the next level.

Three touchdowns in Saturday's loss Sorsby completed 23 of 33 passes for 282 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 45-23 loss versus TCU. He also had 10 rushes for 59 yards.

Impact Sorsby had a productive day Saturday, but it was not enough to stop the Bearcats' slide down the Big 12 standings. It was the team's fourth straight loss, but this was the first of that streak where Sorsby played well. He played a clean game with three touchdown passes and no turnovers and added over 50 yards on the ground for the fifth time this season. He had another highly productive regular season in 2025, throwing for 2,800 yards, 27 touchdowns and five interceptions, adding 580 yards and nine touchdowns on the ground. He'll look to cap the campaign off during bowl season.
