The University of Iowa announced Tuesday that it has received eligibility rulings for 11 current student-athletes who were involved in the state Division of Criminal Investigation’s sports gambling investigation.  

Iowa announced in May that at least 26 student-athletes in five sports, including wrestling, were under investigation, but the school has not released the identities of those involved or their punishments, citing privacy laws in this statement the school athletic department released Tuesday: 

“The University of Iowa and the UI Athletics Department have been working cooperatively with the NCAA Student-Athlete Reinstatement (SAR) staff to determine the eligibility of student-athletes who were involved in sports wagering. The institution has received the SAR determinations for the 11 individuals who are current student-athletes. Because this information is protected through the Family Education Right and Privacy Act (FERPA), specific information will only be released once we have received the student's consent.

“NCAA guidelines set forth a process for an appeal of the SAR staff’s decision. The University will support student-athletes choosing to move forward with this process.”

The state gambling investigation has also impacted Iowa’s cross-state rival. Iowa State Big 12 champion Paniro Johnson was charged earlier this month with tampering with records after placing approximately 1,283 mobile/online wagers totaling over $45,640, according to a criminal complaint.
