A former member of Temple's men's basketball team is reportedly being investigated for allegedly fixing his own games.

Hysier Miller is accused of betting on games he played in and point-shaving as a member of the Owls.

An investigation began in March after unusual betting activity for a Temple game against UAB.

Miller transferred to Virginia Tech but was dismissed last month "due to circumstances prior to his enrollment at Virginia Tech," Virginia Tech said.

"Hysier Miller has overcome more adversity in his 22 years than most people face in their lifetime. He will meet and overcome whatever obstacles lay ahead," Miller's attorneys said in a statement, via ESPN.

Temple said in a statement it is "aware of the deeply concerning allegations of sports wagering last season" and "will cooperate fully should we be contacted."

The Blazers opened as a 1.5-point favorite, but the spread suddenly increased to make them favored by eight. Temple eventually closed as seven-point underdogs.

UAB won, 100-72, making it a sweat-free cover. Miller scored eight points on 3-for-9 shooting.

Temple lost to UAB in the AAC championship, after Miller averaged 27.8 points per game in the tournament.
