You could be right. I hardly ever look at their sports page. I do know that (for at least a lot of their site) they use your past clicks to determine what they think you'll be interested in and then show that kind of content to you again.

For example, if I click on an article about UCLA basketball, I'll start seeing more and more articles about UCLA basketball. If I then click on an article for Texas football, I'll start seeing more and more articles about Texas football.
Oh, I'm sure not clicking on 'baccer road articles 🤣 but I recognize these algorithms work that way.

"I'm mad about losing my bet on the UK game because our player bet on the UK game also."

Maybe just don't bet.
Interesting. You put a sentence in quotation marks that I never said or even implied, used the version you invented, and then concluded I shouldn’t bet.

I’m a casual bettor. Losing the bet wasn’t the point, it was the bizarre ending to a game that was already over. Kentucky was up 35 with about a minute left, Krisa came in launching contested 3’s at a time teams try to run out the clock, and UK ended up winning by 29 instead of covering 31. It was such an unusual sequence that people were talking about it that night, long before his arrest.

Thanks for demonstrating how much easier it is to come to a conclusion with something you made up rather than with what I actually wrote.

Its because you guys are viewing the article on A Sea of Blue on SBNation, which is....drumroll.....A KENTUCKY SITE.

Not everything is some grand conspiracy by the legacy media to get Kentucky, and I absolutely loathe the media as much as anyone. But some critical thinking goes a long way. JFC

The article isn't on their national page at all.

It isn't on their college basketball page at all. In fact the last article they have about Kentucky on there is from May and concerns recruiting.

If you take the time and look at the Arizona and West Virginia pages, to absolutely no one's surprise, their headline is "Former Arizona...." and "Former Mountaineer...."

/Rant.
I just Google searched it and I said I found multiple links which all had different titles. Chill out JFC. Also I never said it was a conspiracy, but go ahead with that narrative.

Unreal. It's so unbelievably stupid. These guys are getting paid now, pretty damn well, and beyond that in the NBA.

Malik Beasley made 59 million in the NBA. He and people connected to him were making prop bets on him for 10's of thousands. So here's some math Beasley apparently didn't do: If he won 5 thousand 10 thousand dollar bets, it still wouldn't equal what he made in the NBA (and he would have made a whole lot more- he was 28 his last season in the league and finished 2nd in 6th man of the year voting).

Now best case for him is staying out of jail, and he ain't playing another second in the NBA.
He also cost himself a new deal worth another 50 million plus he was about to sign. Total stupidity.

Bullcrap we don't know. I've been saying the get down by 20 then come back was suspicious. Oweh was accused of gambling all year. It's definitely a concern. But when people say it in real time you are called crazy.

How many times did we get down 20 and come back. I think this is a lot more common than people realize. I've been saying these guys are in with vegas. I don't even believe his foot was broke to be honest.
Oh there was definitely some times he looked like he didn't care. The problem with that is .. if you are throwing it you definitely are trying hard. Oweh looked as if he didn't care about anything in some games
lol. What? I can’t read the link? What’s the details? Guess he won’t be playing for our alumni team. Thank God, he didn’t deserve to begin with.
I'm not a fan of the summer alumni games anyway, but I wish they hadn't added him. Just brings uk name into this and it's a bad look

They always let people dig the hole so deep they have nothing they can do except take a plea and move on. Thats why they convict like 93% of cases or something absurd like that.
Feds don't play. I could be wrong but I think it's about 98%. Like you said they usually don't move until they absolutely know they have a case.

Not sure how they operate when it comes to basketball gambling but it looks about the same as dope dealers..they will let them go five to ten years thinking they are In the clear then bam.

The feds have a high conviction rate, but it is really not as impressive as the numbers sound.

The majority of the time the defendant will do some kind of plea, not admitting to guilt and pay a fine. Most of the time it is way way cheaper to pay a fine than to fight the feds who have unlimited money. The college basketball recruiting scandal involved tons of people and only a handful got locked up. They count that as 100 percent in their stats.

I’m sure but I also thinks it’s on a whole nother level now.
Not sure about that. I think it’s much easier to get caught now than it used to be. Cellphones are a tracking device. And all of these sportsbooks can see unusual betting on games that immediately gets their attention.

Having done fed time myself im not sure where you are getting the fine part from. You make it sound like a slap on the wrist. If the feds get you you're doing time guaranteed. Also taking a plea when you know you don't have a chance at trial is an admission of guilt.

Also they are taking everything you own or associated with. They would take your kids if they could. I'm not saying this in a argumentative way but you might have to enlighten me. I'm a little confused on your take.

You will most definitely have fines and stuff but you don't gotta worry about that until you finish your time that you will most certainly get. Now it may be different dealing with basketball stuff but I highly doubt it. Again I'm not saying you were wrong just the way you said it makes it sound like a cakewalk and community service

You might be onto something tho because I have been confused seeing all the NBA players getting federal indictments and still walking the street so maybe it's different for athletes lol

If he was trying to get UK under the number he would have at least yoked one of those FTs. If you're trying to throw a game or at least get it under a number missing FTs is the easiest way to do it, ya know, it happens. And he didn't.

He also rimmed out the first three, could he have been trying to miss and just accidently almost shot a perfect shot? I guess. But you're taking a leap there.

He also never does anything egregious on defense like letting his man just blow by or committing a dumb foul, and the bench is up and exploding every time he shoots, so obviously they know he's trying to him some milestone and the staffs been made aware.

I'm not seeing anything bad bad here. Could be wrong though, I'm not saying it isn't possible, I'm just not seeing where he's throwing the game. Just trying to hit a milestone in a game that's already over.

Huh? If you plea you are committing to time, fine, and often forfeiture. And, admitting to the elements of the crime to which you plea. That admission will be under oath before a Court that must accept your plea. Federal prosecutions rarely (I mean rarely) plea out with someone not going to jail.

Now if the FBI would only look at refs...
It's a lot harder for players to shave points than it is for refs to move the score one way or another. The real action has always been on the officiating side.

Players who owe debts to the wrong people can and do give insider information about injuries or other not publicly known things that can help people making bets. But throwing games invites a lot of attention.

This is ridiculous. I highly doubt he told Tommy Lloyd about his fraud scheme. Lol
Yes because I really made this post thinking a highly paid basketball coach participated in scamming people out of 100 grand.

I’m just joking, have fun but also no way one coach over 6 years didn’t pick up on something

My favorite ESPN headline that proves that the UK brand can catch viewers the best:


He played with so many teams, including Cincy last year, yet he is headlined as Ex-UK...

UPDATE: They literally just changed the headline. lol

What this scumbag did is much worse than shaving some points in basketball games. Throw the entire ******* book at him, put him in prison, then kick him the **** out of here.

Wow! He is an absolute scumbag if all that is true. Doing a crypto scam is bad enough but coming up with fake identities and saying your mom has cancer etc to grab money is just bottom feeding scumbag behavior.

Shaving points would of been less trashy so that is saying something. Complete sociopath behavior.

I can't speak on any of the coaches but I sure always thought something was off with the fella. And that's from only seeing a couple interviews and stuff. I could tell he didn't give two craps about UK.

Do y'all not remember when he moved in and did his best to act not excited and only talk about he's ready to golf? Dweeb.
