Sorsby's decision to seek treatment for gambling addiction came in the wake of the discovery of Sorsby making thousands of online bets on a variety of sports via a gambling app, which jeopardized his eligibility with Texas Tech, per

So does he give back the money he was paid to go to Tech now, or did he lose it all gambling? What a disaster for the people who coughed up the cash to get him on campus. ...and you just know something bad happened to bring this to light... going to be wild watching this unfold because color me doubtful there aren't some juicy deets getting ready to bubble to the surface.

so he bet on games 4 years ago when he wasn't even playing?

there must be a lot more to the story because that sounds like checking into rehab cuz Dad let you have 3 beers at the lake 4 summer ago.

I've read many of articles stating gambling amongst kids his age is getting out of hand. I've no idea. I don't gamble, don't know anyone who does, but I can't think of a better way to screw yourself at a young age.
this is very true, and its pushed by social media influences pretty hard as well. degenerate behavior.

..and how do "residential" gambling programs differ from say,, commercial programs? Are there different tiers?

..and can you bet on his release from said program, and anyone have any idea if Sorsby placed a wager one way or the other?

There is he made thousands of bets on sports apps. He is being investigated by the NCAA. It’s obviously just not what happened at Indiana.
