Iowa State QB Hunter Dekkers accused of gambling on Cyclones football game, other sports

Iowa State quarterback Hunter Dekkers was accused of betting on Cyclones sports, including a football game, in a new criminal complaint filed Tuesday.

Dekkers was accused of placing 26 bets on Iowa State sporting events, according to a criminal complaint by the Story County Attorney’s Office. In total, Dekkers placed approximately 366 sports wagers through his DraftKings account that totaled “over $2,799.”

One of those bets included an Iowa State football game against Oklahoma State in 2021. The Cyclones beat Oklahoma State in that game, when Dekkers served as a backup to starting quarterback Brock Purdy. Dekkers did not play in that game.
