Each player is accused in the complaints of tampering with records related to an Iowa Criminal Division investigation into sports gambling.
Gambling investigations at Iowa and Iowa State have resulted in criminal charges filed against seven current or former athletes, including Cyclones quarterback Hunter Dekkers.According to Johnson County online court records, charges have been filed against ex-Hawkeyes basketball player Ahron Ulis, Iowa baseball player Gehrig Christensen and Iowa kicker Aaron Blom.
Ulis, who transferred to Nebraska after starting 27 games for the Hawkeyes last season, is accused of placing online wagers on a FanDuel Sportsbook account set up under the name of his brother, the complaint said. One of Blom's bets included the 2021 Iowa-Iowa State football game, according to the complaint. The bet Blom placed on the rivalry game was an over-under wager, which requires the bettor to choose whether the teams will combine for more or less than a designated combined point total. The over-under for the game was 45 points, and Iowa won 27-17 for a total of 44 points. Blom, who did not participate in the game, chose the under, according to the complaint.
Johnson, the 2023 Big 12 wrestling champion at 149 pounds, between August 2021 and October 2022 used a DraftKings account under a different person's name to place 1,283 wagers totaling $45,640, with 25 bets on ISU sporting events.
