Sad news out of Lubbock that could affect the Big 12 title picture come the fall.
Good to see he’s getting help. Hope it works. Sadly, we’re going to see more cases like this in the near future.
Ah yes. Gambling. Yet another negative change to the college sports landscape.
Here’s a great idea! Lets pay college players millions of dollars and simultaneously legalize gambling in the same sports in which they participate! What could possibly happen?
Oh don’t worry. The NCAA has rules that will keep it from being a problem! [insert eye roll here]
What about non-gambling, gambling? The futures markets are now legal in all 50 states because its “not” gambling, but rather federally regulated (CFTC) futures contracts. That’s what Kalshi (or whatever its called) is. So because its not ‘gambling’ does that also circumvent the NCAA’s “gambling” rules?
I don’t know if that puts the Tech game in play for us, but it couldn’t hurt.
They gave a dude 5 mil that has a gambling addiction?
