Iowa defensive tackle Noah Shannon has been suspended by the NCAA for the 2023 college football season as part of the state’s investigation into illegal sports gambling.

Head coach Kirk Ferentz announced the decision Wednesday, adding the school intends to appeal the decision.

Iowa’s athletic department said in a press release a total of 11 current athletes for the school will have their eligibility impacted as a result of the investigation’s findings. The names of the athletes are not being released until Iowa receives consent from them under the Family Education Right and Privacy Act.
