In an anticipated decision, the NCAA has voted to rescind a rule allowing college athletes to bet on pro sports. The announcement came after Ross Dellenger reported schools were pushing back on the guidance.

“After a procedural 30-day period, two-thirds of Division I member schools have voted to rescind a previously approved rule change that would have allowed student-athletes and athletics department staff members to legally participate in sports betting on professional sports only,” the NCAA said in its announcement.

“Because sports betting rules are common legislation, the ban on all forms of betting — for sports in which the NCAA sponsors a championship — will remain in place for all three NCAA divisions. “
