Dennis Leonard Lundy (born July 6, 1972) is a former American football running back who played one season in the National Football League (NFL) with the Houston Oilers and Chicago Bears. He played college football at Northwestern University and attended George D. Chamberlain High School in Tampa, Florida.[1] He was sentenced to one month in prison and two years probation on May 5, 1999 for lying to a federal grand jury investigating gambling by Northwestern athletes. Lundy admitted that he gambled on five games, while also deliberately fumbling the ball on the 1-yard line in a 1994 game against Iowa. He testified that the fumble was designed to win a $400 bet that the Wildcats wouldn't cover the point spread.[2][3]
