NCAA Division I committee approves pro sports betting for athletes
The NCAA Division I Administrative Committee approved a proposal to let student-athletes and athletics department staff wager on professional sports. Divisions II and III committees still need to approve the change, with reviews expected later in October; if they do, the ban is due to end on 1 November. The NCAA’s ban on betting on college sports would remain.
The proposal would change betting rules for athletes and athletics staff while keeping the prohibition on college sports wagers.
