Another school has joined a growing list of college programs to face an inquiry related to gambling violations.

On Monday, Iowa State’s athletics department released a statement confirming that it had notified the NCAA of gambling allegations involving around 15 active student-athletes. According to the statement, the alleged wagers were placed online.

The university said the situation covers athletes from multiple programs including football, wrestling and track and field. The statement does not say that the athletes in question were betting on games involving Iowa State.

NCAA rules strictly prohibit student athletes from sports gambling of any kind.

Online and mobile betting became legal in Iowa in August 2019.

This is the most recent of several such cases we’ve seen in the last week. It’s also not the only case we’ve seen in the state of Iowa. Earlier on Monday, reports indicated that the University of Iowa’s baseball team was under investigation by the state’s gaming commission. Several players, including star Keaton Anthony, were held out of the Hawkeyes’ series against Ohio State last weekend.

A statement on Friday indicated that the players were being withheld due to potential NCAA violations.

Most notably, Alabama fired baseball coach Brad Bohannon after suspicious betting activity was detected on the Crimson Tide’s series opener at LSU last weekend, resulting in multiple states pulling Alabama baseball off the board indefinitely.

According to a report from ESPN, the person who placed the bets in question was in communication with Bohannon at the time.
