Cedquavious “Dae Dae” Hunter was banned from the NCAA<\/a> for participating in a scheme in which he and two of his teammates shaved points to earn money from a bettor.<\/p>\n

Hunter, Dyquavion Short and Jamond Vincent were offered $5,000 in exchange for their participation in the scheme, and at least seven games<\/a> were influenced.<\/p>\n

“I was money-hungry. That’s all it was. Money-hungry. Fast cash,” Hunter said in an interview with “Good Morning America.”<\/a><\/p>\n

When initially asked why he took the money, Hunter asked to “skip that question.” After wiping away tears and walking away to compose himself, he delved into his reasoning.<\/p>\n

“I just had a child. The school wasn\u2019t paying me money. So, I was trying to get money to actually take care of my child,” Hunter said.<\/p>\n

Hunter lied to the NCAA, saying he “didn’t know anything.”<\/p>\n

“But the whole time, I knew everything. I was trying to lie because I thought I was going to get my way out of it,” Hunter said.<\/p>\n

Hunter and his teammates would begin to play their normal game early on but purposely perform poorly later in the game so as not to raise suspicions.<\/p>\n

The NCAA said last month it was investigating at least 30 current or former players for gambling allegations. The NCAA also banned three college basketball players<\/a> in September for betting on their own games at Fresno State and San Jose State.<\/p>\n

The violations at New Orleans against Hunter, Short and Vincent came to light after the NCAA received a tip about game manipulation. The NCAA said a student-athlete overheard the three players discuss a third party placing a bet on their game against McNeese State on Dec. 28, 2024. New Orleans lost 86-61. That same student-athlete reported that during a timeout near the end of the game, Short instructed him not to score any more points.<\/p>\n

New Orleans suspended all three student-athletes for the remainder of the season while it investigated the allegations.<\/p>\n

The NCAA investigation showed that the three players manipulated their performances in seven games from December through January to lose by more points than the spread in those games.<\/p>\n
