Either athletics is part of the academic institution or it's not. And if it's not, then I would vote to get rid of it, have clubs and go the way the Europeans have gone quite nicely for centuries. No one has the nerve or desire to get out. Many sincerely believe that reform is possible and work hard at it. Gambling is such a socially accepted phenomenon.
Every state has lotteries.
Our kids are brought up with it. I'm sure some gambling goes on at all colleges. Athletes have to be especially careful because it's against NCAA rules and could affect their eligibility. They have to think through the consequences. Every team has at least a couple of gamblers.
