But again, if he's betting $20k on Ewers under in yards because he knows he's playing the entire 2nd half instead of Ewers then he should be blackballed from the sport right?

Is anyone arguing that he shouldn’t be?

Is this supposed to be a retarded version of a gotcha? You are really under the impression that LSU fans want to protect Arch from scrutiny if he gambled on his own team? I knew Buckeyes were brain dead for the most part, but you might have actually ate paint chips or huffed JP-8 as a child.

That’s up to the books to factor in the likelihood of guys playing…

Which is why strict enforcement of the rules and automatic permanent loss of eligibility is so important. You aren’t going to deter any players from gambling if guys like Sorsby can get caught and just apologize and go to rehab for 30 days, but still be allowed to stay on the team and play. The deterrent has to be there, otherwise you’re going to have a much bigger gambling problem among players.
