Sunday some people posted the same thing saying tressel - 140. Basically means he was the favorite to be the head coach.I don't understand all that betting stuff. What exactly is that saying/showing?Can't post a link as it's my betting website, and I really don't wanna post a link.. But I wouldnt take the time to write all that done. I copied and pasted it.Could you please a post a link to this?I have it back up on my site. It's not off the board it's back on.Not when they have a field bet.Vegas would not take Jim Tressel's name off their betting board if they know "for sure" he will not get the job. They would lose money by doing so.
It opened up at tressel - 140

-140 is pretty much equivalent to a team being favored by 2 points..
You bet 140 dollars to win 100.
The line was taken down for most of the day today. ( by Vegas ) I think it was only taken down because Dustin fox made that tweet. Vegas takes prop bets like this off the board as soon as any thing is leaked ( so someone couldn't bet against it with leaked info) Vegas had to respect someone with some decent credibility and immediately take it down until they can figure out if the source is credible and it's save to put back up or the info leaked is legit. With them putting it back up but changing the odds a little.. It would be my guess that they took Dustin Twitter comment very lightly.. Now +140 it's like saying they are an underdog by 2 or so points.. But still have the best odds out of the whole group.
This is my understanding if anybody has anything different fill it in.
