Anyone else see the report by CBS News regarding if the Temple's Mens' basketball team could possibly be involved after "a large sum of money" was placed on their opponent, UAB, to win by 8 then the Owls lost by 28? Is this going to become common in NCAAB?

With how leagues and networks have incorporated gambling orgs into their sponsors, I'm guessing this will become a regular occurrence.

IMO this could be a positive for college sports. Right now the prevailing sentiment is that the NCAA has to keep its hands off the ability of players to earn money, that no level of adult supervision is permitted. The thing that might change that is a good, solid scandal involving money to remind those in charge that money can ruin sport if it’s not regulated more closely. We will probably never return to the way things were, but something like this can remind everyone that these are kids and need rules. Maybe this or something like it will provide that reminder. Sort of like Louisville coaches using prostitutes to recruit to make people realize there has to be supervision.

In 2003, Univ of Washington football coach Rick Neuheisel was fired because he violated NCAA rules by participating in an NCAA hoops tournament pool. My, what a big change. NCAA is in its final chapter.
