LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos has made the decision to play for No. 12 Texas Tech next season, following a temporary restraining order granted by a Kentucky judge. The Big 12 favorite is set to start alongside returner Will Hammond, who transferred in from Brendan Sorsby, who was declared ineligible this summer due to gambling.
Castellanos confirmed his commitment via his verified X account, where he shared a photo of himself in a Texas Tech uniform. The NCAA approved a rule change in June, allowing players who began college in 2023 or later to have a fifth season of eligibility. Castellanos, a freshman at UCF in 2022, has not been drafted by the NFL and previously declared for the draft in December after rejecting an extension of his college eligibility.
