Louisiana Gaming Control Board bans college prop bets from August 1, aiming to protect student-athletes and the integrity of the game. Prop bets on individual athlete performances or statistics will be suspended, following NCAA President Charlie Baker's call for states to enact similar bans. The decision comes as NCAA faces issues related to harassment and threats to athletes' safety due to these bets.
