Smart man.

I also noticed one-time Musketeer Tyler DeMartino hit the portal and plays for Indiana now.

OK State +6.5 against UC today? Seems like free money to me, which means I’m sure to lose but I’m dabbling.

Grabbed UCONN at +400 and X +850 to win the BE tourney.

I don't gamble so what does +400 or +850 mean? Interested to at least understand it.

So, think of it as all based off betting 100 dollars. So, if you bet $100 at +400, you win 400 plus your money back....500 total. At, 850, you get 950 back. Other way to look at it is +400 and +850 are 4-1 and 8.5-1 respectively.

If it's minus instead of plus, you have to bet more than 100 to win 100. So, in point spreads, you will see -110 a lot. You would have to bet 110 dollars to win 100.

Hope I explained that clearly enough.

Anyways, I think UCONN is good value to win the Big East at 4-1. They really shouldn't have a problem getting to the Big East final imo with the side of the bracket they have and basically playing home games, but that's why they play the games
