[QUOTE="BretMyBeachHouse, post: 1930427, member: 747827"] Yep, the biggest potential problem is the insider stuff. Say you're a big NIL guy. You like to bet. You're going to pump your players for info. That's why the off the university books stuff is really a problem. I'm not sure about other sports, but the NFL has the injury list set up to prevent some of the monkey business. Let's face it, if your star QB isn't going to play, that's huge info. NFL requires reporting on that. NCAA doesn't. So now a player sees Luke go down in practice and texts his friends (NILs as well) and they get bets in before line changes. So the Iowa and Iowa State problem may provide some impetus for wholesale changes. [/QUOTE]
