The NCAA said Thursday it is investigating 13 Division I men’s basketball players at six schools — including Temple and Arizona State — for possible violations of gambling rules and failing to cooperate with investigators.
No athletes were identified, but the NCAA did say that none of them are currently enrolled at their previous schools.
The other schools mentioned were Eastern Michigan, New Orleans, Mississippi Valley State and North Carolina A&T, but the NCAA stressed the investigation is focused solely on athletes. Schools and staff members have not been alleged to be involved. The NCAA said in a release it was taking this step of releasing this information because of extensive public reporting. It added additional cases are in various stages of the investigation process.
