Oklahoma now formally investigating Mateer Gambling Accusations - Odds he plays this season?

[GoHorns1]

If he gambled on any college game in any sport he will suspend. Don’t forget the new enforcement arm has subpoena power.

I doubt it's anything serious but they'd be stupid not to investigate, in case it bites them in the ass later. They had better hope that he does play for them, he gives them the best hope out of their QB's on roster.

Man… if Pete Rose and Joe Jackson were held out of Cooperstown until post mortem…

2 different things here. Very low probability of anything happening. 101% was hilarious. 

If he actually gambled and there’s objective proof, he has to go. It doesn’t matter if he actively shaved points or anything else. He opened the possibility of it. It’s still a nefarious world. If you don’t preserve that part of the game, bring in Vince McMahon. We don’t get to pick and choose how we feel about the rules. We enforce them. If they no longer make sense, we legally modify them, or stop having them. 

It surprises me how many people want to inject their feelings, beliefs, or gut on rules.

Agree with this take.

Screwdriver, but we're probably splitting hairs (better than skull).

To be fair to both of us, Dusty D was involved in so many assaults at OU and after OU, it's easy to conflate the assaulting instrument.😎

Also, great job by Jim Nagy's office in vetting and advising athletes.  It's 2025.  This shouldn't have been revealed on twitter two weeks before their opener.
