Betting happens everywhere, but it looks like Boutte’s sheer volume caught someone’s attention.

8,900 bets in 13 months. That's 22 bets per day. Was he going crazy on prop bets?

He started just after the 2022 Final Four, so he was either betting NBA or MLB, but he may have gone heavy on NFL that fall. His betting continued until about a week after he was drafted by the NFL. Did he get some sort of warning? Or maybe it had been detected. He stopped wagering in May 2023, and LSU was informed in July 2023. Maybe he got locked out of his account.

He probably saw the guys the NFL permanently banned, heard the speakers talking to the rookies about it, and decided that it wasn't worth the hassle.
