NCAA says sports bettors threatening 1 in 3 Athletes

Stricter regulation is desperately needed.

I don't think we should take away freedom. The athletes can shut down comments on social media, delete their social media or block people. If it goes beyond that get the police involved.

Why? They're adults who get paid to play their sport. They don't deserve special protections.

Even with NIL, I still think there's a fundamental difference between an amateur student-athlete and a pro. IMO, exposing college athletes to individual prop bets and all the shadiness/online harassment that accompanies it is a step too far.

are they not complaining to the pro players about as much? Why are they going after college kids?

As of last night, there isn't a difference anymore.

Yeah I had to LOL at the timing of how my post aged.
