Big Ten athletes urge NCAA president to restrict college prop bets
The Big Ten Student-Athlete Issues Commission sent a letter to NCAA president Charlie Baker urging restrictions on prop betting involving college athletes, according to the report. Twenty-two athletes from 18 institutions signed the letter, which cited integrity concerns and online abuse. Baker has also called for sportsbooks to stop offering college prop markets.
The request adds athlete representatives’ support to calls for restrictions on college prop markets offered by sportsbooks.
