Texas Attorney General officials warn the Big 12 that any sanctions against Texas Tech related to quarterback Brendan Sorsby could be unlawful and may trigger legal action. According to reporting, the Big 12 considers its options following the dispute involving Sorsby, but the Texas AG’s Office argues the conference risks significant antitrust exposure if it takes disciplinary steps against Texas Tech. CBS Sports reports that the warning includes a potential $200 million liability figure tied to alleged antitrust issues. The Athletic similarly describes the AG’s position as a direct legal challenge to proposed or contemplated sanctions. Both outlets frame the matter as an ongoing decision process in which the conference weighs possible enforcement actions while the state signals it will contest those actions in court. The public details of the underlying conduct dispute over Sorsby are not fully established in the referenced summaries, but the key issue described across sources is the legal warning aimed at shaping or preventing Big 12 penalties toward Texas Tech. The dispute remains under consideration by the conference.
