The wager for Frost to be the next HC of NU was just taken down on my site.

I"m not a gambling guy...but does that mean the books think it is a done deal?

What does that mean?

Is that good or bad?

Good. They won’t take money on it. They think it’s done

Good. Theory is if the odds makers know the outcome they take it down because if there is a leak they stand to lose lots of money from people betting after they know the outcome.

[BoNeyard]

So they take the odds down not just because they think its done, but it most likely is done and complete.

 

Technically, couldn't Frost sign the offer now? Yet still finish out the season with UCF? Therefore both parties could try and keep it quiet as if it hasn't happened yet?

[teachercd]

Usually, on prop bets like this...if too much starts getting leaked the site will pull the bet.  It makes no sense for them to have it up when they start to feel it is a "sure thing" so that is why they yank it.

 

Think if you were a bookie and you offered a prop bet...say "Sly Stallone will win the Oscar for Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot, Again", and all of a sudden there is a lot of noise that he in fact will win, you pull the bet because you know you will lose money. 

And funny thing is...I literally just bet it, 20 minutes ago, now it is gone

[Oade]

Did they take down everything on Frost or just Frost/NU?

 

 

ASU firing Graham makes me nervous. I don't think Frost would want that job over UF or NU, but it would certainly be a nice spot for his family.

Congratulations to you.

Correct me if I am wrong, but Frost may have some bad memories of Tempe.

The talking head sports analysis dude

[CheeseHusker]

ASU appears to be after Sumlin. 

 

Right now I think our biggest threat to getting Frost is Central Florida.

Sounds like Tennessee wants Greg Schiano..................https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/sec/2017/11/26/tennessee-turns-its-focus-greg-schiano-coaching-search/895830001/

On my site the only props were for the next NU coach.
