Statement:

While the universities will remain neutral on this legislation, our priority is to protect the best interests of our student-athletes. Even as we know that state and federal officials will be charged with enforcement of these issues rather than our respective compliance offices, we will continue to be proactive in educating our student-athletes about the issues surrounding sports wagering in order to protect their welfare and the integrity of competition.”

 --Joint statement of the athletics departments at the University of Kentucky and the University of Louisville
