A number of current and former athletes at Iowa and Iowa State are caught up in an ongoing gambling scandal, but the state’s Racing and Gambling Commission stated Thursday that there is no evidence that the outcome of any game was altered by gambling interests.

Seven athletes from the Iowa State Cyclones and the Iowa Hawkeyes were charged this week with placing bets on games, including games involving their own schools.

All are facing a charge of tampering, which is an aggravated misdemeanor in Iowa.
