Those matches likely never involved Husker or Gopher wrestlers, amirite?
Douchebaggery is not a desired personal trait, btw.

Well, I support it. I've made a fortune betting against the Hawkeyes in big matches.
Kyle Hightower pens about "Dancing with the Devil". The article underscores the integrity of professional sports gambling. However it is certainly conceivable the issues discussed in this article could soon be at the doorstep of amateur/NCAA athletics. Sportsradar flagged 1200 suspicious games in twelve (12) distinct sports during 2022.
An aside, I am intrigued about the monitoring of University of Iowa athletes involved in gaming activities. I have seen the State of Iowa DCI (Department of Criminal Investigation) referenced in this thread. Questions, does the University of Iowa articulate with DCI in these matters; collaborate with the IRS on gaming issues; communicate with the NCAA regarding gaming violations? Where does the athletic department’s Compliance Office enter into this whole protection paradigm? What are the NCAA/University of Iowa mechanics of this gaming business? Attachment.

Can someone update me on the rumor mill? How many Iowa wrestlers currently on the roster are supposedly being investigated? I've heard Kennedy and Nelson were the 2 big names. Anyone else hearing the same thing? If true that would suck most for Nelson, he has a lot of momentum going for him. If this were true and they had to sit out a season. slot in Caliendo at 165 and Arnold at 174. If Arnold still red shirts, Swafford would be the man.
I have never read anything other than speculation, and people who "hear rumblings" but are really just getting it from other message boards or Twitter.
Your post is quite sensical but no idea if that's actually the case.
Sounds like NCAA is making the gambling penalties may be much less severe than people expected.
Less than 30% of the season as long as you didn’t bet on your team/sport I believe - and only 50% of a season if you bet on your sport (but not your team).

Everyone was all giddy happy when Iowa legalized gambling not taking into consideration the predicable fall-out. I have always been opposed.
Legalization always comes about once the government figures they will get more tax money.
Lol Huh? Poster chose nothing but to divulge info. Sounds like you’re biting the hand which just fed you.
I’m glad the NCAA reduced the severity of punishments but if Cass and Kennedy bet on the Iowa women’s basketball team they could still face permanent loss of eligibility. That seems a bit harsh.
Has this been posted yet on this forum? SIAP
Who demands sources from inside info being divulged? If they tell us, they might not be given the privilege of leaking the next morsel, eh? Lol
I'm feeling better about this than I
did yesterday in terms of length of suspension.
That said, until details are released on the individuals involved, it's just speculation.

Wonder if Captain Kirk will let us have our big boy early from the football thing to cover for Cass.
The reference to 'after May 2nd' is curious. It seems to indicate a feeling the prior penalties were too stiff. Hence the new guidelines may not apply to the kids currently under investigation.
I continue to think anything more than betting on collegiate sports is none of the NCAAs business.

He ain’t wrong. But I’m also hearing 2 other starters.
Kennedy, Nelson, Assad, and Cass are the names I’ve heard.
All mid/upper weights. Another thing to blame Mstar for
Facts matter? A false-light invasion? Transparency a hallmark of a good study/analysis? Sunlight is said to be a very good disinfectant.
What’s the over under? How do we get in on the action? Too soon?
I cant wait for the start of this season. This is going to be a fun lineup to watch when the dust settles.
Gabe's comments after the State tourney last winter might be prophetic.
He might get that chance against PSU?
Doubtful and he isn't ready to be a serious challenge in that match.
More a reference to he might get the opportunity to be "the guy" at 174.
Heard one of them may have bet on himself. Nothing to back it up, just a rumor I heard.
I don't believe individual matches of Iowa or Iowa st athletes were ever posted to be bet on. Odds for duals were posted
Yea, don’t really know much about what you can or can’t bet on, heard it was on a tournament type situation.
Small number of guys but one big name guy.
The notable guy was betting on himself, which I personally don't have a problem with but is a BIG no-no. He may be done.

Don't think the timing of this is a coincidence.
This is very good news for both Iowa and ISU.
