Arch going to have all sorts of weapons next year, especially if they get Cam and another top WR.
Would be REALLY nice if we could get a 1a WR to pair with Toney and a legit downfield TE option. That would make it very enticing for someone like Sorsby.

Sorsby is gone. The money he is going to get from oil and gas billionaire Cody Campbell (former Texas Tech offensive lineman 2000 to 2004) will not be matched. Lane does not have a blank check like this. Here is a summary from Gemini Pro:

Based on reports surrounding the opening of the transfer portal yesterday (January 1, 2026), here is the financial landscape Cody Campbell and Texas Tech have prepared for this cycle:

The "War Chest" for 2026: Reports indicate that Texas Tech has mobilized an estimated $55 million for the 2026 roster.
  • breakdown: This includes the university's maxed-out revenue sharing cap (approx. $20.5 million) plus roughly $34.5 million in external NIL money raised by The Matador Club.
  • Campbell's Contribution: Campbell personally donated $25 million to The Matador Club to anchor this fund.
  • The Immediate Target (Yesterday's Context): Following Texas Tech's loss to Oregon in the Orange Bowl yesterday, the immediate focus of this money is reportedly on securing a transfer quarterback. Speculation is high that Campbell is prepared to write a "blank check" to land top transfer QB Brendan Sorsby (formerly of Cincinnati and Indiana), who is currently ranked as the #1 player in the portal.

    For context, Texas Tech spent about $28 million on its roster for the 2025 season, so the jump to $55 million represents a massive increase intended to compete for a National Championship.

If only there was enough talent in the portal to warrant $55M lol college football is still won with blue chip high school players where Tech only signed 8….

Texas builds its team like the Olympic basketball team was when they were getting their asses kicked. Just adding names and thinking it makes you a team . You need talent but you also need character and chemistry when building a team. Blindly throwing money at the issue isn’t guaranteeing a championship. They remind me a lot of Bama pre Saban .

This. Scott, Toure, Thomas, Poyser, CBrown, Daniels, and so many more of the transfers we have brought in have no ego and were mature enough to recognize that joining Miami was going to mean sacrificing everything to reach the ultimate goal.
