How does surveillance footage prove the person placing the bets was communicating with Bohannon?

Did they pull the ol' early 2000s CSI zoom and enhance method to see the phone # that dude was texting?

Most likely. Casino cameras of the 2020's are better than you think.

Anybody surprised by this didn't pay attention to basketball season. Bama can't scrape up a modicum of integrity.

Bohannon done screwed up.

There is one organization you dont freak with. That's the gambling institution. They are always going to get their money one way or the other.

All night I was trying to figure out why do it on this game and it is obvious to me now.
The idea being that Skene is the best pitcher in college baseball so it on paper does not look bad. He is basically just guaranteeing that the slight chance there is if beating LSU in that game is not going to happen.
There leads to a large moneyline bet on the tigers no matter how bad the odds were.

Did y'all know that actor from Spy Kids is married to Meghan Trainor now, and apparently she was on some podcast this week talking about how big his dick is and how she can barely take more than the tip

Yes, it was in Cincinnati. He either got the guy to place a bet for him or gave the guy insider info.

Alabama baseball coach fired in connection to suspicious betting at Great American Ball Park

ESPN's David Purdum reported that surveillance video indicated that a person who placed bets on Alabama's April 28 game against LSU at the BetMGM Sportsbook was communicating with Bohannon. ESPN said the Ohio Casino Control Commission's investigation is centered on two bets for the Tide to lose, which they did.

I find it ironic with Pete Rose coaching and playing for the Reds when he had his gambling scandal. The biggest betting scandal in MLB alongside the Black Sox scandal.

It's kind of hilarious that a $100k bet on a regular season college baseball game is itself suspicious. No one bets that kind of money on a regular season college baseball game.


I totally would if I had the money

It's a stupid idea. There is no such thing as a lock in sports betting

I wonder if he has a friend in Cincinnati that he just decided to tell that he was starting a different pitcher before the sports book would find out and he told him this just to help a friend out.
Or it could have been his money that the guy used to bet for him.

It would be really bad if bohannon started the other pitcher because he intentionally thought it would give his team less of a chance to win .

It could be that he just thought that the sports book would change the odds because they would think the pitching change gave them less of a chance to win and he just wanted to get the bet in before the odds changed

cannot imagine that a book in Cincinnati took a wager of that size when it had received no other action on that game. That just seems impossible.
I believe they immediately stopped all betting when those large bets came in. I may be remembering it wrong though.



Only way you knew was you were one of them trying to make a bet.
