The NCAA has reversed course on plans to allow student athletes and athletics department staff to legally bet on professional sports.
The rule change to allow betting on professional sports was due to come into force on 1 November but was delayed to 22 November, with the new date marking the end of a 30-day rescission period under NCAA Division I legislative rules.
At the end of the 30-day period, two-thirds of Division I member schools voted on Friday to rescind the previously approved rule change.
Because sports betting rules are common legislation requiring the approval of all divisions, the ban on all forms of betting will now remain in place for all three NCAA divisions.
The decision by Division I member schools to rescind the previously approved rule change follows a number of recent betting scandals involving current and former professional athletes.
