This time it sounds like student athletes. LINK

quote:

Hearing that the NCAA is investigating several University of Iowa athletes, including at least one baseball player. The investigation surrounds student athletes and gambling.
quote:

It should be noted that Iowa announced “due to a potential NCAA violation, we withheld some student athletes from competition” following Friday’s baseball game.

Keaton Anthony has not played for the Hawkeyes at all this weekend.

LSU lost to Iowa 12-4 earlier this year.

ETA:

JUST IN: The Iowa Gaming Commission has acknowledged it has commenced an investigation into the Iowa baseball team. Two regular players were withheld this weekend.


ETA2: Iowa State in the mix

I doubt this is throwing games. This is college kids gambling on football/basketball games. Which is a no no for a college athlete.

Millions of college kids, athletes included, are on the Iphones daily making bets....it cannot be stopped.

This will be an issue forever.

How is this random? Two teams LSU has played are now dealing with gambling scandals.

Something just popped at Iowa State too. Though if they catch any baseball players there I'll be more than a little surprised.

Why the frick would it matter that a college baseball player is betting on college football or any other sport for that matter. Professional football players are allowed to bet on every sport but pro football. I don’t see why this should be an issue.
