[drmwevr08]

WHen asked to comment, Red Foreman said, 'Dumb ass.'

I thought dci said none of the bets impacted games?

I think they claimed it wasn't games he played.

 

[Acylum]

Good. The stupidity of his on-field decisions was surpassed only by the stupidity of his off-field decisions.

 

[jdolson27]

Glad it’s announced and time to move forward. Wish cook wouldn’t of got hurt.

Interesting that the DMR ran the story on only Dekkers. Wonder why there is no mention of the ‘other four’? Type of bets more minor?

He was on the bench, so he couldn’t really impact the game.

 

[KidSilverhair]

Yeah, he gone.

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

That story also said he's accused of tampering with records, which they probably consider a lot worse than any of the betting..

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.

 

[Acylum]

Yeah, he gone.

Unless you’re an idiot.

He didn't play

He was on the bench, so he couldn’t really impact the game.

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.

For sure. Maybe DCI didn't know it at the time.

No matter what, it is clear that Dekkers is ****** as far as Iowa State goes. And good riddance.

I know this is exaggeration but what channel is this happening on? I haven't seen a lot of gambling commercials...although I don't know of hardly any gambling apps to begin with so maybe I have haha.

Hopefully people aren't addicted to body scent lotions because they may have started hoarding Lume.

Replace Gambling with Sponges..." just give me the whole case and I'll get out of here."

 

[KidSilverhair]

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

I've heard similar, but I wish they would just get it over with. Coaches have known punishments for a while.

Smooth move blockhead.

 

[Walden4Prez]

That’s a special kind of stupid right there.

 

[CloniesForLife]

What a moronic thing to do

 

[clonedude]

Wow... so stupid. I'm sorry... you HAVE to know better than that. It doesn't even matter what the NCAA decides... CMC will never allow him to wear an ISU football jersey again.

Weird how some of the dumbest players on our team are all starters too? Explains quite a bit actually. I'm sorry if that is going too far, but in a lot of games we lose it's because we play so much dumber than our opponent. If that offends people... too bad... it's true.
