I expect we will be hearing about a LOT of these things going forward. So much sports betting - some cheating is bound to happen.
Sucks.
Sucks.
Paul Finebaum disagrees.Nobody cares about Alabama baseball
Anyone else looking forward to seeing “Bama Rush”?
Going to be pretty revealing it seems:

If that’s the amount, it is shocking that there wasn’t a low limit on NCAA baseball. The VSIN guys were expecting college baseball to have very low limitsIf I heard correctly, the person(s) who bet over $200k right before it was announced Bama was sitting their regular Friday starting pitcher sure does.
Wow, ESPN reporting that sportsbook surveillance video at the Reds ballpark indicated that the large bettor was in contact with Alabama‘s coach shortly before making the bet.
Not shocking that a 4k surveillance camera can see his text messages

Sources: Fired Alabama coach linked to bettor
Alabama baseball coach Brad Bohannon was fired Thursday amid a widespread investigation into suspicious betting activity on the Crimson Tide's game against LSU six days ago.

I’d be surprised if they are taking very much on a regular season NCAA baseball game (and I’m sure they juice it up with a 40-cent line or something like that to help reduce risk).
For example, Fan Duel reported taking zero bets on the game. So a 200k bet elsewhere might raise suspicion
even if this guy's buddy was in AC and he went casino to casino to max bet at each sportsbook, those sportsbook operators talk and word would spread real fast something going on. i believe that's why when you read the old Billy Walters stories, he would have half dozen beards making the bets almost simultaneously at six different outlets.
Student athletes gambling on college sports?
Shocking.
Even more shocking is that they got caught.

Don't be surprised if RU athletes get caught gambling on games. Based on the number of athletes in the program there has to be a few who have used online gambling sites. The key will always be, "what did they bet on".
making online gambling so easy to do will have a few players think it's OK to do as long as their program isn't involved.
After betting online for awhile a few might feel it's no harm if they bet on thir team
