Court documents allege Ulis placed more than 430 bets on NCAA football and basketball games, including at least one University of Iowa football game. His wagers allegedly totaled more than $34,800

According to the complaint, Ulis used a FanDuel account registered in his older brother's name, Anton Porter, to place bets. Ulis allegedly made approximately 1,850 wagers, more than 740 of which came before Ulis turned 21, the legal betting age in Iowa.

According to NCAA guidelines, which are in effect for violations reported on or after May 2, 2023, a player could permanently lose college eligibility if they bet on any sport at their own school.

My youngest saw this story and said "you have to be 21 to gamble on sports? I have tons of friends who gamble on sports" - he's a teenager. It's like many other apps on their phone - they get addicted to it.
