Greatest Betting Win
One of my favorite sports betting memories was certainly in October of 2022, when I successfully cashed a 5-team Round Robin parlay involving games I had already played as straight bets. It involved Penn State catching 16 at home against Ohio State, along with Notre Dame, UCF, Louisville and Baylor all on the money line as underdogs. The Irish and Cardinals took care of business early by crushing their opponents and Penn State hung tough to cover the inflated number against the Buckeyes. Meanwhile UCF pulled out a thriller against Cincinnati, leaving me only a Baylor victory away from a serious 50U profit. Thankfully, the Bears made quick work of Texas Tech in the second half and I was able to watch the 4th quarter with a smile on my face. This was one of three 5-leg Round Robin parlays I cashed during the 2022 college football campaign, as part of what was a terrific season on the gridiron.
Greatest Achievements
Finished with a win rate of 63% in weekly 2022 NCAAF best bets column, highlighted by an 8-0 run to close out championship week and bowl season 25-8 (76%) YRFI/NRFI run from June through August 2023.
Education
Caleb attended Penn State University, where he covered Penn State football and basketball for 3 years (along with many other sports), getting an up close and personal look at the grind of a full collegiate athletics regular season. His two bachelor's degrees were in Journalism & Political Science, with sports journalism as a primary focus. During his senior year, Caleb began moving away from betting casually and turning into a sharper bettor, including creating systems, compiling data for multiple sports, etc.
Experience
5+ years betting experience 3+ years as a sports handicapper 10+ years as a sports journalist Caleb has been betting legally since 2019 but his history with gambling predates that, as he regularly picked NFL games against the spread throughout his college tenure. In 2021, Caleb started handicapping college football games for Pickswise and turned a profit for the season. After moving into a full-time Deputy Editor role in 2022, Caleb has had plenty of success and winners for the site’s users, most notably in college football, NFL and the MLB YRFI/NRFI market.
