NCAA probe sidelines two former A&T players

"The ruling came from the NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions following a lengthy enforcement review triggered by irregular betting patterns linked to several Aggies games during the 2024-25 season. Because investigators were unable to obtain key records or interviews, the committee said it could not determine whether actual wagering violations occurred. Even so, the refusal to participate in the investigation itself was treated as a major rules violation."

"Integrity monitoring systems that track gambling markets initially raised alarms after detecting unusual betting activity surrounding four Aggies games. Those alerts prompted the NCAA enforcement staff to begin collecting information, including financial documents, phone data and interviews with the players involved."

"According to the NCAA's decision report, investigators repeatedly asked Forrest to provide financial records and participate in follow-up interviews related to the suspicious betting activity. The requests stretched from April through September 2025. Forrest declined to supply the documents and later told enforcement staff he would not take part in the inquiry."

The NCAA Committee on Infractions declared former North Carolina A&T men's basketball players Ryan Forrest and Landon Glasper ineligible after they declined to cooperate with an investigation into possible sports betting violations. Integrity monitoring systems detected unusual betting patterns linked to four Aggies games during the 2024-25 season, prompting the NCAA enforcement staff to request financial records, phone data, and player interviews. Despite repeated requests from April through September 2025, both players refused to provide documents or participate in interviews. Although investigators could not determine whether actual wagering violations occurred due to insufficient evidence, the refusal to cooperate itself constituted a major rules violation.
