Hello, college football fans across the valley! We have our first meme of the year. John Mateer has been placing bets on sports gambling and never deleting them, which is quite a tragedy. Now, all eyes in college football are on Norman. Although he has since deleted all the transactions, many of us saw the evidence on his Venmo before it was removed.
What should the outcome of this situation be, and how should the NCAA handle it since it goes against their regulations? No betting on college sports: This is the most critical rule. Student-athletes, coaches, and athletic staff are banned from betting on any intercollegiate, amateur, or professional sports that the NCAA sponsors, including their own and other schools’ games.
The penalties for violating gambling rules are considered on a case-by-case basis and depend on the severity of the offense. The NCAA has created reinstatement guidelines that offer a more nuanced approach than the previous one-size-fits-all punishments.
Prediction John Mateer will at least serve a 1-3 game suspension and Oklahoma will have to pay a hefty fee and here from Texas and the rest of the SEC
