Multiple outlets are reporting that former LSU wide receiver Kayshon Boutte was arrested Thursday in Baton Rouge after he allegedly bet on his team and others while he was underage. Per WAFB:

quote:
Boutte is accused of creating an online betting account under a fictitious name and then placing illegal bets while he was still under the age of 21 and not legally allowed to gamble.

His efforts led to more than $500,000 in winnings, with the vast majority of that money being used to place additional bets, investigators allege. Boutte, who is now 21, is currently listed on the roster of the New England Patriots. He played in five games for the Patriots last season. He is accused of placing nearly 9,000 illegal wagers including two bets on at least one LSU football game that he played in, his arrest warrant states.

Maybe used the same shaving cream as Hot Rod Williams back in the day?

Hot Rod had a damn good pro career though.

His coach, who knew nothing of the point shaving, lost his job and had the scandal follow him his whole life.

But ... Williams had a good pro career.

Maybe this explained his poo poo play after that great start. And here I’m the dummy thinking it was the injury, remember he was supposed to do what Malik did before Malik did it.

Please don’t put any comments about this being related to current Coach Kelly and Staff. This happened under Coach O’s watch and CBK is not responsible.

This is concerning for LSU:
“including two bets on at least one LSU football game that he played in, his arrest warrant states.”

It is called impacting the game and the spread aka Hot Rod Williams.

Am I jumping to conclusions to assume he had money on FSU in 2022?

What a complete dumbass and embarrassment to the state of Louisiana. He should be banned from ever stepping foot anywhere on LSU Campus ever again.

Someone should have told him how short the walk from the Penthouse to Outhouse is....

I wonder if he would have been investigated had he lost that much money or even if he had won a lot less.

lourob•3 months

It's taxable income, which probably wasn't filed, causing the IRS to get involved. Only speculation. A couple grand is one thing; however its a lot harder to hide and account for $500K which is all traceable data.

An arrest for that is kind of ridiculous.

Recoveringcajun•3 months

Really???

Betting on your own team during a game that you’re playing in is somehow okay?

GeauxTigers0107•3 months

I'll bet that you were never known as the smart guy in the group huh?

It's entertainment. The only people who care are sportsbooks.

We aren't talking about the Olympics... its just an entertaining game.
