ISU Gambling Megathread

[1UNI2ISU]

Just stunning stupidity.

Who knew putting gambling in an app on your phone would lead to this?

You still have to be smarter than that.

 

[werdnamanhill]

Doesn’t matter, though. He has inside information on game plans, injuries, strategies … while he can’t point-shave or affect the outcome himself (and he had no idea when he placed the bet whether he might have ended up playing), it’s still a hard no to bet on your own team’s games.

I get that, it's definitely illegal and rightly so. I'm just saying that there is still no reason to question the integrity of any FB game results, because he didn't play. The DCI concluded that nobody placed bets on games they played in. So that's good, at least.

I’d heard there was one player who’s out for the year, a few 6 games, and the rest 1 game. I’m guessing Dekkers was by far the biggest offender. And obviously being the starting QB is a huge deal as well.

Yeah, I heard their were 3 different groups, so that matches up. I didn't hear any of the actual punishments.

So Hunter is done in college, he won't be able to play anywhere. So is it too late to try and get to an NFL camp? He's 3 years removed from High School.

It doesn't matter at this point... he gone.

This may be one of the most brazenly stupid acts I’ve ever seen. Betting on your own team, as a fairly high profile player, in a phone driven app. So mind-numbingly dumb it’s hard to comprehend.

Anyone with a brain.

(And I’m a bettor.)

I hope you're joking, right? No chance at the NFL for Dekkers.... ever.

 

[CyDude16]

Makes sense about Dekkers since his locker has been cleaned out for awhile now.

 

[Drew0311]

Hope they make an example of everyone on every team that gets busted . These kids need to pay now so the future kids understand that it’s game over if the gamble on games.

 

[Cyhig]

Was that wrong?

In all seriousness, Dekkers should had known better. And this should be a learning experience for all college athletes. You just can’t gamble on your sport, let alone involving your own team. Doesn’t matter if you are riding the bench or playing, you just can’t bet involving your own team.

Luckily the QB room has good depth. Next man up. Good luck, Dekkers.

 

[GetAwesome]

He didn't play

He played a couple of series in 4 or 5 games that same season. So DCI either lied, or just didn't know quite yet.

 

[dunar]

26 on ISU games (all sports)??? I'm old and haven't made that many bets on ISU sports.

 

[Gunnerclone]

Yeah, he gone.

You can’t bet on games your own team is playing. You just can’t.

Pete Rose ******* died for these kids and they don’t give a ****!

It lead to them getting caught. Before the app it all happened in the dark with the campus bookie

The NFL loves gamblers so I'm sure they'll be beating down his door...

Dekkers? NFL? Lmaooooo

Sure, but he didn't play in the FB game he bet on, the OSU one.

Whether it's too late or not, doesn't matter, no NFL team would touch him with a 100 foot pole. You can bet on that. And the only reason isn't his gambling.
