so many questions, 1) what did tech know before they offered (paid) him 2) what did they give him up front 3) is the contract contingent on him actually playing games 4) does he have to give back whatever he has received 5) what about his classes? oh, wait, skip that last one that was oh so many years ago (3? 4?) when they had to go to classes.

Just a guess, but would not be surprised if the NCAA is ready to ride this through the courts. And part of this starts getting into contract law. The gambler chose to go play under the NCAA's authority. What's next, he doesn't like that he can't take steroids?

What?? I thought this case it would move to Dallas County? So now some rogue city judge can just decide on his own to overturn the rules of an organization? This is going to have huge ramifications of this sticks.

Unbelievable.

 

[Frozen Frog]

Find the right judge and any penalty can be overturned! I guess Shoeless Joe didn't have the right attorneys and judges working for him.

 

[Traveling Frog]

Wow, he should have never see the field in college again. Also love it just because the SEC and BIG10 are probably pissed but that is what you get when keep the NCAA have having no power of Authority.

 

[Wexahu]

This is both unbelievable but also entirely believable given the current state of college sports.

So now players can bet on their own games as long as they aren’t playing much or have an addiction?

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

Let's start a gofundme to bribe him to bet on TCU for our game at tech.

 

[Diehard]

Wonder if the injunction will or can be appealed by the NCAA? If this stands the credibility of the outcome of every game can be doubted. Sad!

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

Every athlete suspended by their team, conference or the NCAA can just claim mental illness and they're the real victims and be reinstated. I see lots of Georgia athletes going this route.

so, basically all rules concerning college sports should be abolished and the schools, agents and players decide what they can do, where they can go and what if anything they will abide by. Class? flunk out? claim you will lose income. It is incredible that a judge could rule this way. And the judge is a BU grad. The original judge in Lubbock, a tech grad, reclused himself as he didn't want any part of it.
