Nov. 7 The NCAA permanently stripped eligibility from six former men’s basketball players for betting-related game manipulation, the organization announced Friday.
The NCAA Committee of Infractions said six student-athletes, who played at New Orleans, Mississippi Valley and Arizona State, committed three separate infractions. Violations included betting-related game manipulation and/or student-athletes giving information to known bettors.
Cedquavious Hunter, Dyquavian Short and Jamond Vincent were the former New Orleans players to receive permanent ineligibility. Former Mississippi Valley players Donovan Sanders and Alvin Stredic and Chatton « BJ » Freeman, who played at Arizona State, also received permanent bans.
All six players are no longer enrolled at their respective schools.
The NCAA said a student-athlete reported hearing Hunter, Short and Vincent discuss a third-party placing a bet for them on a game last December.
