LSU misses out on Brendan Sorsby, but Lane Kiffin has a new plan in place

The college football transfer portal has been open for a few days now, and Lane Kiffin is still searching for his quarterback. Michael Van Buren decided to enter the portal over the weekend, which means LSU has zero scholarship quarterbacks on the roster for 2026 at this time. Kiffin was zeroing in on former Cincinnati QB Brendan Sorsby, but he has not decided to play elsewhere next season.

On Sunday night, Sorsby announced that he will be heading to Lubbock to join the Texas Tech Red Raiders next season. Sorsby had visited both Texas Tech and LSU over the weekend, with the Red Raiders ultimately winning him over.
