Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer, after screenshots of past references to "sports gambling" on his Venmo account surfaced online Monday, has denied to school officials ever being involved with gambling, a source told ESPN's Pete Thamel.
School officials became aware of the matter late Monday night and are planning an investigation, a source told ESPN.
Screenshots posted online Monday night showed Mateer allegedly twice included "sports gambling" in memos for transactions on Nov. 20, 2022, while he was a freshman at Washington State. Both transactions were allegedly made to a Venmo account for Richard Roaten, believed to be a teammate at Washington State at the time.
