A judge has granted an injunction that will allow Texas Tech transfer quarterback, Brandon Shores be to play this season after sitting out the first two games as part of a suspension.
This doesn't quite bring an end to the gambling scandal that has engulfed his transfer and really cast a shadow over potentially his final season in college football.
The NCAA could still attack this thing and try to keep Shores be off of the field, but it's looking more and more like this is the latest head-scratching, earth-shattering moment in a crazy landscape for college sports.
When it comes to Texas Tech, this is an-- it's not just an important addition, it's a season-changing addition for the Red Raiders.
As you saw last season, there's enough talent on this team to win a Big Twelve and to win it running away as they kinda did last year.
There's enough to finish in the top four and, and be one of the home teams and get a buy in the college football playoff.
but with Shores be, it kinda takes things to a different level.
He's one of the elite QBs in college football.
Having him on the field turns Texas Tech from simply being a Big Twelve contender to being potentially one of the best teams in college football, a team that can not just make the playoff as they did, but win a game, win two games, potentially win three, and win the national championship.
So it's a stunning development.
Nonetheless, it really shakes up the Big Twelve, and it shakes up the entire picture for the playoff across the entire Power Four landscape.
