U of Iowa professor is afraid sports betting will change how college athletes are viewed. Does anyone really think college sports aren't big business these days? That student-athletes aren't just a marketing product?

U of Iowa professor thinks FBI probe of college athletics corruption may stop college sports betting legalization. But that corruption isn't about gambling; it's about exploitation of college athletes to line the pockets of coaches and schools.
