SHOCKING: Brendan Sorsby ELIGIBILE in 2026? Texas Tech QB gets SURPRISE Ruling, Blow to NCAA Power Jun 09, 2026

Show notes

Brendan Sorsby has received a preliminary injuction from a judge in Texas to become eligible in 2026. The move underscores how powerless the NCAA truly is.

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by Thomas Dunn of On3 covering the Cal Golden Bears. Tosh Lupoi is making more noise on the recruiting trail.

Michigan State HC Pat Fitzgerald has made a MASSIVE piece of news on the recruiting trail--well, at least as newsworthy as it feels like the Spartans can be sometimes.

Pac-12 Commissioner SPEAKS to Congress as SUPER LEAGUE is Mentioned by Notre Dame Athletic Director Jun 05, 2026

Show notes

A variety of impactful people were in Washington D.C. earlier this week to discuss the 'Protect College Sports Act' which is opposed by the Big 10 and the SEC. Pac-12 Commissioner Teresa Gould made 1 particularly imporant point.

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by 'Locked On Irish' host Tyler Wojciak. Why did Notre Dame's AD shut down the idea of a super league even though Notre Dame would be included?

Texas Tech was called out by Steve Sarkisian, and others, for their weak schedule this Fall. The Red Raiders might get Notre Dame on their schedule as soon as 2027 after failing to get Texas to bite on their week 1 challenge for 2026.

BIG 10 SQUAD: Congress is trying to SAVE College Football | How this impacts the sport Jun 04, 2026

Show notes

The Big Ten and SEC unite to push back against Congress’s sweeping plan to overhaul college football, setting up a powerful standoff that could reshape the sport’s future. With player compensation, playoff formats, and media rights on the line, can any legislation succeed without college football’s biggest powerhouses on board? The Big 10 Squad dissects the motives behind congressional intervention in NCAA sports, conference politics, and the relentless pursuit of media power. The crew shifts focus to Wisconsin Badgers football, debating whether Luke Fickell’s squad can clear a six-and-a-half win total and what’s at stake for his job security. Insights on quarterback Colton Joseph, a soft Big Ten schedule, and the looming challenges from Notre Dame and Penn State add fuel to the debate. Is this the season Wisconsin bounces back, or are bigger shakeups ahead for the Badgers?
