  "account": "Former Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos has committed to play at Texas Tech, reports ESPN. The move comes after a Kentucky judge extended Castellanos' eligibility, allowing him to play a fifth season. Texas Tech's quarterback situation is complicated by the NCAA's decision to rule out Brendan Sorsby, who was involved in a gambling scandal. Sophomore Will Hammond will lead the team for now, after recovering from an ACL injury that sidelined him. Castellanos, who threw for 2,760 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 9 interceptions in his one year with FSU, also added 557 rushing yards and 9 more TDs. He played quarterback for four years in college before considering a switch to wide receiver. Castellanos has received NFL minicamp invites as a receiver, and his college development could improve his prospects in the upcoming NFL preseason.",
