Iowa State is the latest school to find itself dealing with potential gambling violations over the past few days.

On Friday, Darren Rovell of the Action Network reported that former Alabama baseball coach Brad Bohannon allegedly relayed information to a former high school baseball coach, who then placed "suspicious" wagers on the LSU Tigers to defeat the Crimson Tide before the two teams faced each other on April 28.
