Damien Harris
Damien Harris Damien Harris is the quintessential zero RB drafters late round running back, and exactly why I love smashing wide receivers early in drafts this season. He’s slated to share backfield work with James Cook and Nyheim Hines. Honestly, I like all of these players upside and am happy walking away from a draft with any of the three. At cost, however, I like Damien Harris at his current range slightly more, and here’s why: Rushing Ability Before a hamstring injury last year, Harris outscored Rhamondre Stevenson, particularly due to his short yardage ability to score and create yards. After week 5, Rhamondre took over the backfield with 65% of the team’s RB carries through the end of the season. He was very good, and Damien Harris was hobbled by a thigh injury midway through the year. If we look back at his 2021 campaign, however, Damien Harris was one of the top running backs in the NFL in Rushing Yards Over Expected (RYOE) and explosive run rate. Harris is ...

2023-2024 NCAA Betting Recap
I finally got around to reviewing some of my betting numbers from this past season, which I'm going to hit on here. I will say that this year was one of the most frustrating betting seasons in recent memory. Countless bets were followed by line movement in my favor and positive CLV, only for the on-court performance to be way outside of a team's norm. However, betting college hoops can be an absolute grind given the variance of three-point shooting, schedule factors, and a multitude of other reasons. Albeit small, I'm happy to have finished in the green across 276 bets being up 11.25 units. If you're interested in looking back at any bets, feel free to glance here . Yeah, I'm aware I stink when it comes to CBB totals. A few of those losses weren't even in the same ballpark as the final score and my projected pace. Props were also banned in Ohio midway through the season, so I wouldn't expect to see much of either next year. I did well betting sides, general...
Mid Majors Shmid Shmajors
The people are asking, "are mid-majors bad for college basketball?". Well, the short answer is no. Postseason parity is what makes this sport great. I don't care about how news outlets market mid major teams. If you want blue bloods in the Final Four, donate to their NIL fund and stop complaining. Get gooder. These games have great players, new mismatches/adjustments for great coaches to make, and most importantly lines to bet on. Hoot hoot 6:09pm 9 Florida Atlantic vs 5 San Diego State (-2.5) Every sentence I typed to intro this game sounded disgusting. Kind of like watching the Aztecs play, and that's coming from a defensive guy. They've given up an incredible 17% from three over the last four games. That's unheard of. Their ability to guard every position and pressure the ball often forces either contested threes or dribble penetration, where LeDee and Mensah have been a terror on defense. Florida Atlantic, on the other hand, shoots threes at an extremely...
