In the wake of a widespread probe into gambling within multiple Iowa State athletics programs, Cyclones quarterback Hunter Dekkers has reportedly been accused of placing 26 wagers on Iowa State sporting events—including one 2021 football game while he was on the team.
Dekkers has been charged with tampering with records related to the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation’s probe into sports gambling, according to Travis Hines and Randy Peterson of the Des Moines Register. The complaint says that a DraftKings account controlled by Dekkers made approximately 366 wagers that totaled over $2,799.
The football game in question that Dekkers allegedly bet on occurred on Oct. 23, 2021, against Oklahoma State. Dekkers was a sophomore that season and did not play in the game, which the Cyclones won, 24–21.
