The FBI was on campus in fall 1971 to investigate reports of student athletes betting on football and basketball games. At the request of UT President Boling, Chancellor Archie Dykes launched an internal investigation. On February 27, 1972, Chancellor Dykes announced that the probe was complete, and that seven UT athletes had lost scholarships or assistantships for one year for placing bets on basketball or football games. Two other students who had knowledge of the gambling and failed to report it were placed on one year’s probation. One UT employee resigned as a result of the FBI investigation. Names of the athletes and employee were not released. Bets placed, none of which were against UT, ranged from $5 to $90, and one student had placed bets for relatives totaling $200. No evidence was found of bribery, point shaving, or attempts to influence the outcome of any game.
