I’ll concede we don’t have numbers for this specific subset, but with no contrary evidence what I said is factually true
So you don’t have evidence? You should stop stating your opinion as fact then.

Yes, I do, these athletes would be represented in the representative sample, so unless you can prove this particular subset is an outlier, you have to assume they are within the margins of error, which would be way less than “most”
Unless of course, you disagree with math

Assumption is a precursor to fact. Not a fact itself.

There is no math that proves college athletes don’t bet. Not yet anyway.
There is math that allows you to assume they don’t bet, and again, assumptions aren’t facts.
You’re welcome.

I guess it’s just better to completely make it up then. Dumbass

Damn. MSB poster Mingo Was His NameO thinks he’s roasting me online.
You’re being narrow minded dude. It takes upper level thinking to try to see someone else’s point of view.

Aren’t you a middle school teacher?

No.
Does that somehow have significance to this topic?

No way that 18-22 year olds won’t find a way for this to bleed into their own sport, or other NCAA sports. No way they start harassing fellow students about blowing their parlay.

I’ve got no clue what point he’s trying to make with this. Truly stupid

Yeah. I’m not too opposed to this.

I'm assuming you meant that there is zero logical reason to not let adults bet legally on sports.
There are a lot of logical reasons to not allowing adults who voluntarily choose to participate in professional sports or quasi professional sports (like college sports) to bet on sports.
Tons of historical examples about gambling issues in baseball (1919 World Series, Pete Rose), basketball (numerous college point-shaving scandals; Jontay Porter in the NBA); NFL (Paul Hornung). Ensuring the integrity of the game is paramount.
If someone wants to work in collegiate athletic (whether as a coach, internal support staffer, NCAA compliance, or as an athlete), they need to forgo gambling on sports. If gambling on sports is so important to them, they need to find another vocation in life.

The NCAA Division I Administrative Committee on Wednesday adopted a proposal to allow student-athletes and athletic department staff to bet on professional sports, a shift in a long-held policy that had become difficult to enforce with the spread of legal sports betting in the United States.
lolololol

No one is saying let them bet on their own sport
