Former college QB reveals he was once approached by Italian mob with $300,000 to throw game

Former Vanderbilt quarterback Mo Hasan shocked the college football by revealing that he was approached by members of the Italian mafia during his time in the SEC. Hasan claimed that he was offered $300,000 to manipulate football games.

The incident took place at Jason Aldean's bar in Nashville, where a man connected to the mob made the offer. Hasan shared the encounter on his “Momentum” podcast:

"I was approached at Jason Aldean’s bar in Nashville by the Italian mob to fix football games."

The man approached Hasan while he was alone and offered him the deal. Allegedly, the mobster mentioned that similar arrangements had been made with players from the University of Alabama.

Hasan explained:

"We regularly talk to guys in your position about fixing games,” Hasan said. “He named guys in the SEC, who I don’t wanna say their names, because they’re in the NFL right now, and that’s a bad look.”

“But the University of Alabama … He said almost every game in the SEC is rigged.”

Hasan was a backup quarterback at Vanderbilt and had minimal playing timee, attempting just 17 passes, during his tenure, in 2018-19.
