And here we are thinking LSU was the group sweating that 9th inning comeback attempt.
I would love to see footage of him in the dugout during that run.

We could find out over the next few days that he owed some very bad dudes a bunch of money, and he needed to or was forced to throw the game... or else.

Exactly. This dude was trading in his Nike Deal on some Cement Shoes.

It’s the only thing that would explain this level of stupidity.

You can bet this wasn’t his first time doing this either. Mob is gonna pay him a visit in prison like they did NBA referee, Tim Donaghy for fixing NBA games. He’s bout to be known as Bolegged Bohannon with new Forrest Gump legs. ??

LSU Baseball-Alex Box has cameras too, don’t forget that. If bet was placed at Cincinnati Reds stadium, which I’m sure is true since Ohio Gaming Commission halted bets during the game, then most likely surveillance cameras from both venues were reviewed. It was investigated by a firm called U.S. Integrity and I read that they are very good at what they do, and very thorough. I’m short, he’s going to prison if video matches the exact time on cell phone records for all parties involved.

All I'm saying is that you could have robbed banks, sold dope or stole your grandmother's pension checks and none of us would have minded. But throwing a game, man that's un-American.

He's toast, and an idiot to boot. Something is off, though. They were paying him fine, and he could've won himself raises or onto a better job. He was either in deep debt (drugs, alcohol, gambling) or trying to bail somebody out of something similar. The real confusion I have is how he thought he could get away with it. Maybe it was just one final Hail Mary. I wonder if he wanted to get caught so he could get some help.

All super speculative. He may just be a complete idiot. Regardless, he's toast.

So 10k would have got about 4K return if I’m correct


For them to flag a bet believe me it was way more than 10k

what game did he throw because you have to be the superior team to throw a game...changing pitches at the last minute just made Bama bigger underdogs to LSU than they were before...

In fairness, I would have bet on Bama to lose also. Of course I don’t have the Bama coach’s cell number, and that would have helped, but I always bet against Bama.
