RAS college hoops service on sale soon
But first: A note on last year, and what to expect in 2024-25.
by Edward
We're expecting to put our 2024-25 college basketball product up for sale in the next day or so (spoiler: expect a modest price decrease.)
I want to take a quick opportunity to address our results from last CBB season, and note some changes we have planned for the upcoming season.
We lost -8.60 units in 2010-11, -2.85 units in 2014-15, and -8.15 units (on almost entirely 2nd halves) in 2019-20 but -27.45 units in 2023-24 is by far our worst performance ever and the only time in our history that we've lost double digit units in a season.
In each of the previous losing seasons, we bounced back the next year with a winning one. Evolving, adjusting, finding ways to improve, and identifying new edges is what we have been doing for 27 years and why we are still so relevant to this day.
Things you can expect in 2024-25:
Lower play volume
More specialization
More higher rated releases
More flexible and customizable release windows
Obviously, #1 and #2 have one goal in mind: producing a higher win rate. With #3, we'll be looking to identify what we think are some of our higher-edge plays throughout the season and pass that along to subscribers. As for #4, we'll be offering two main options:
Set release window: Approximately 10:00am PT on weekdays, 8:30am PT on weekends will be our primary release window for both sides and totals. For those who don't want to be tied to a computer all day or deal with multiple release windows, this is the service for you.
Full volume service: This service will start as early as 6:20am PT for sides, and 7:20am PT for totals, will include the set release window mentioned above, and will also include late releases all the way up to tip off of the last game. We want to have the option to react to new information and/or new pricing with short notice and regardless of what time it is.
With both services, you can still pause and unpause at any time, and opt in or out of different play types.
The season starts Nov 4. We're excited to get back at it. Look for more details soon.
In the meantime do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, comments, or suggestions.
