NCAA officials confirmed that a former Temple player and two former staff members breached the organization’s long-standing sports wagering rules. The ruling followed a review that began after integrity monitors flagged irregular betting movement tied to a 2024 matchup, eventually prompting a deeper look into multiple individuals connected to the program.
Good to Know
NCAA Committee on Infractions findings showed that former guard Hysier Miller placed 42 parlays tied to Temple contests, with 39 wagers supporting the Owls and three targeting the opposing side. The activity totaled $473 between November 2022 and March 2024. The NCAA said:
“As a result of the sports betting violations involving bets on and against his own team, Miller violated honesty and sportsmanship and sports betting rules, triggering permanent ineligibility.”
Miller transferred to Virginia Tech after the 2023–24 season but did not compete. The school later stated he stepped away “due to circumstances prior to his enrollment.” Both Temple and the NCAA noted that Miller cooperated during the review, which was resolved through a negotiated process used by the infractions staff. Any return would require an NCAA institution to request reinstatement.
The review started after monitors working with U.S. Integrity observed a sharp odds shift connected to a Temple–UAB game in 2024. The American Athletic Conference was notified and passed the alert to the NCAA. Miller appeared in that contest and finished with three made shots out of nine attempts and three turnovers. The infractions committee stated that it found no evidence indicating point manipulation or any effort to influence outcomes.
The investigation also identified wagering activity involving two former Temple staff members. While neither placed bets on Temple basketball, both violated NCAA rules that prohibit staff from wagering on any sporting events.
Former special assistant Camren Wynter placed more than 50 bets across a five-month span in 2023, totaling $9,642. That included $1,923 in college football wagers. Wynter told investigators he understood the policy but chose not to participate in the negotiated resolution.
Former graduate assistant Jaylen Bond, a onetime Temple player who later worked at East Carolina and Albany, placed 546 wagers in a two-year span. His wagers totaled $5,597, with only $200 involving college sports. Bond acknowledged the betting activity and took part in the NCAA interview process.
Under the ruling, both Wynter and Bond were given a one-year show-cause order. If hired by another NCAA institution during that period, they must conduct a sports betting education session with their program. Each also faces a suspension of 10 percent of regular-season games during the first year of employment.
Temple now joins a growing list of men’s basketball programs reviewed for wagering issues as legal betting expands across nearly 40 states. While the NCAA continues to prohibit any sports wagering by college athletes, coaches, and personnel, officials have indicated that updated rules are in development. The governing body signaled that a revised approach may soon redefine what is allowed for college players and staff in regulated betting environments.
