It looks like the Miami Hurricanes football program is in hot water with the NCAA. So much so, online super-sportsbook Bodog.eu is offering 2011 Miami Hurricanes Football Prop Bets for "U" backers and haters wanting in on the action. Do the Hurricanes survive or do they get the death penalty? Let's forget about any 2011 College Football Predictions on the Miami Hurricanes program. By by the time rules enforcement people at the NCAA get through with "The U" they will be lucky to have a football program. To put it simply; it's getting nasty in Coral Gables.
Al Golden was the perfect guy to head the Hurricanes football program after firing Randy Shannon following the 2010 college football season. Golden built Temple into a winner; something many coaches have tried and failed to do. Then, unknown to him at the time; Golden stepped into a mess at "The U". The problem is, it was never revealed to Golden by the school the seriousness of the allegations and the NCAA probe.
"I believe they did have a responsibility to tell me." Golden said Wednesday. Will this catastrophy cause Golden to seek employment elsewhere? Hardly, its still a great job once the dirt is all swept away.
Fans can bet on Golden's future; or for that matter, lack of one, at Bodog.eu. Does he stay and coach the team in 2012? If so you'll be getting +110 odds if he remains, but paying a price at -150 if he leaves. It's my prediction Golden sticks it out.
Will Miami receive the "Death Penalty" ? I'd say probably not. The NCAA learned its lesson after shutting SMU down for two years in the early 80's. Its taken the Pony's nearly 30 years to recover. A yes or no wager is priced at -120 either way.
Will a post-season ban be levied on the Hurricanes? The total (over/under) number is listed at 3.0. An over wager is priced at -110 while the under will cost -130.
Presuming you know all the players involved in the scandal; how many will be suspended when all the dust clears? A total of 11.5 is posted the price of an over wager is -150. If less than 11.5 get suspensions, the bet will pay +110.
