That doesn't sound legit. Adults betting on college basketball? Maybe it's against some NCAA rules, but that wouldn't involve the FBI.

Read the title of this thread and was certain it explained how bad Brian Ferentz is at his job.

It would involve the FBI if there was suspicion of points shaving. And if players are betting on teams within the same athletic department, I could see them getting involved just to verify. Their involvement wouldn't automatically indicate guilt, just that there's questions being asked.

Seems like the rumors would include the women's team too

ISU will be punished for it somehow…. if it’s even true.

Unless the FBI are after bigger fish and are willing to use college athletes and coaches and pawns.

No one cares about baseball. The question is whether there are football players involved and whether Kirk will be allowed to handle any football issues "internally", as in not at all.

Sure, but the tweet/AD statement is confirmation that *something* is happening, which some early in this thread seemed to assume wasn't the case and that any rumors were baseless.
