Two former Mississippi Valley State men’s basketball starters are at the center of an NCAA sports-betting investigation that now permanently bars them from college competition. The NCAA says former Delta Devils guards Donovan Sanders and Alvin Stredic provided inside information to bettors and were offered money to help influence games during the 2024–25 season — a year in which Mississippi Valley finished 3–28 overall and 1–17 in SWAC play. Both players were major pieces of that roster: Stredic started 27 of 28 games, averaging 30.9 minutes, 9.4 points and 5.2 rebounds, while shooting 41.0% from the field (93-of-227) and going 77-of-124 at the line.
