Correct. I imagine this is happening much more than people realize.

Wow on AZ State given the history there.

But I thought receiving NIL dough was supposed to disincentivize stuff like this.

Thank goodness no one from the large elite programs take part in these kinds of nefarious activities.

What’s nice about legal sports betting is it’s much easier to catch this stuff now. It increases access to gambling, sure, but there is much more transparency and it pushes out illegal bookies.

when you watch games and know what the point spread is, its hard to resist thinking that the players and coaches aren't also keenly aware of what the spread is as well (at least for me, anyway)

I’m not so sure it wasn’t better when you only had bookies and point spreads.I mean now that you can bet on just about any play or stat makes it easy for players to control the outcome of a wager.

Player props are how a lot of athletes get caught because it’s easy for the sportsbooks to spot unusual bets.

NY and some other states also don’t allow player prop bets on college games.
