About this episode
Join us as we revisit one of the most shocking scandals in college sports history: the 1984-85 Tulane University basketball point-shaving scandal. The episode breaks down the criminal and institutional events that led to the program's demise, including the arrests of several players on charges of sports bribery and conspiracy. It explores the allegations that players accepted money to manipulate game outcomes, the internal NCAA violations uncovered by the university, and the unprecedented decision by Tulane to disband its men's basketball program.
