UNO’s ‘top 4’ players have not played in weeks and now are under an investigation for illegal gambling activities

UNO only dressed 8 players for Monday night’s game

Anyone with any additional insight on this?

This all happened because they have to pay Income Tax on their NIL money.

We are forcing kids into lives of crime because we won't pass the NIL income tax exemption. We are turning out our kids into the waiting arms of the Cartels.

O the Humanity.

They are announcing today that master P will be coaching their next year. This has the potential to be a major clown show.

Serious question:

Can UNO sports survive this scandal?

They’ve had a couple student votes over the years where the athletic department just barely survived existing.

There is absolutely no support of the athletic program and I really just can’t understand justifying its existence.

Why on earth would we have an income tax exemption for NIL?

That’s not what they voted on… students had the chance to add football twice and didn’t…

But yeah they’re another good coach (like Tim Floyd) away from selling out Lakefront Arena again like they did in the 80s. New Orleans will support a winner and them and Tulane haven’t done that in basketball in years

Stop using this word where it doesn’t apply.

I think there have been two votes at UNO to remain at the Div. 1 level and both times the students voted against the fee.

I recall this one in 2009 for sure

It is a financial miracle UNO is still competing at the Div 1 level for sports with zero fan support

No, it doesn’t. Nobody said anything about their wives, fricking, or someone watching somebody else frick their wife


It makes you like a try-hard dork. Stop it

People never said that players don't throw games. They say that there isn't league wide conspiracy theories, orchestrated by said leagues, to make certain specific teams win. Teams get unfairly officiated but I think that's just because there's shitty officials trying to protect certain players.

Also, "modernity"? Do you think players just started throwing games to get out of gambling debt in the 21st century?

Tell ya what, if I was at some small school and we were rent a wins for big programs, I'd have a hard time not rigging it to lose by 30 instead of 20 to make a bunch of money.

He doesn’t know what that word means



Just needed an add-on so ‘cuck’ would have more punching power


If you think that’s weird, you’re probably right. What a nerd

They've been down to 8 players since the Feb. 1 game at Southeastern... that's when all this first started coming to light
