"You're being a predator online and you're reaching out to them, getting these dudes to mess up,"
"Because there's a lot of dudes on that list that you feel bad for, that they've got a long road ahead of them because, in the dark, a grown-up reached out to them and led them down the wrong path."
"I think something needs to be done about these predators that are reaching out to these young dudes in college basketball who don't have a lot and dangle this money in front of their faces,"
Kennesaw State is continuing its season without Simeon Cottle after he was charged with point shaving and suspended indefinitely. Cottle, the preseason Conference USA player of the year, was among four active players, 16 former players and six others indicted Jan. 15 for intentionally underperforming in exchange for money. Cottle had averaged 20.2 points per game. Coach Antoine Pettway condemned sports-betting operators he called predators who target young players and lure them with cash. The indictment alleges Cottle and others received $40,000 to underperform in the first half of a March 2024 game. Defendants face bribery and wire fraud charges.
