Six former men's college basketball players at three schools — New Orleans, Mississippi Valley State and Arizona State — participated in betting schemes that included game manipulation or sharing information with known bettors, the NCAA announced Friday.
Cedquavious Hunter, Dyquavian Short and Jamond Vincent, who played for New Orleans last season, manipulated their performance for betting purposes in seven games, according to the NCAA findings. In all seven games, Hunter, Short and Vincent allegedly lost or attempted to lose by more points than the spread at sportsbooks as part of a conspiracy with outside bettors, the NCAA said.
Two players at Mississippi Valley State, Donovan Sanders and Alvin Stredic, were offered money to throw a Jan. 6 game against Alabama A&M, according to the NCAA. Sanders also was overheard discussing «throwing the game» ahead of a Dec. 21, 2024, contest against Tulsa, the NCAA found.
Former Arizona State forward BJ Freeman was found to have shared information with a former teammate who was betting on Freeman's performance at a daily fantasy site.
The NCAA permanently revoked eligibility for all six players.
