Per multiple reports, former Cincinnati quarterback Brendan Sorsby committed to Texas Tech Sunday night. Sorsby was the No. 3 quarterback and No. 7 player overall in the transfer portal per On3 rankings and is rated as the portal's No. 1 quarterback by multiple outlets.

He was a second team All Big-12 selection.
Sorsby will enter the 2026 projected as one of the nation's top quarterbacks and have the chance to lead Texas Tech to compete for another Big 12 championship and berth in the CFP.
While LSU missed out on Sorsby, Kiffin has a shot at landing another top quarterback in the portal. Per ESPN's Pete Thamel, Arizona State transfer Sam Leavitt — the No. 1 portal QB per On3 — will visit LSU on Monday.
