Betting on where Harbaugh coaches in 2015 was suspended today by some books after heavy dollars placed moved odds on Michigan from 8:1 to 2:1. Looks like books think someone may know something.

I thought Harbaugh was a pipe dream but no one bets that kind of money without knowing something. I would say the harbaugh odds are more than 50-50 at this point.

Doesn't the fact that his name was removed mean someone knows for sure that he is not coming? Why else would you remove?

I'll be in this camp until I see him officially introduced at Schembechler Hall. It's just too good to be true.

You would be able to hear the crying from Lansing and columbus at the presser.

I can hear Urbans "more time with the family" retirement speech and the Dantonio fury after Harbaugh "they wouldn't let me go for three" answer as to why they went for two when up by 30 on msu.

Bovada already had harbaugh at 2/1 while this book had him at 8/1. What's the max bet on something like this usually?

Incorrect.

Most of these type gadget bet props and futures have like $50 limits, a few still with one or two or three dollar limits($100,$200,$300), be they Vegas or Offshore, taking a nickel($500) rare nowadays.

Almost unheard of in today's market can you bet a dime($1000)or two on a prop/future wager at one store, these usually being games with ATS betting lines. There just isn't enough action in this kind of market to accept larger wagers(they imbalance the BM's take), even with the heavily shaded/undervalued true odds pricing. These markets are built largely for vacationing Cub fans to donate $50 to a Franklin on a WS pipe dream..thus max betting limits are to scale.

In many ways you can't bet as much in one-stop-shopping in today's 2010's betting market, than you could back in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s. When NYC's Jigsaw,etc..and LV's Gene Mayday took huge wagers that Cantor, Harrahs, Caesars, MGM, Stations,etc..wouldn't dream of. Today, you have to piece-meal wager, especially in terms of props/futures, to get down large coin.

Mostly only mid-level wiseguys on down to young aspiring sharps bother to even shop these type wagers. The largest and sharpest whales are focused on big game hunting where the biggest limits are involved, their focus isn't on these type wagers.

Some outfits like invitation only Grande(credit shop), off radar stores, etc..offer higher limits based to some player's betting scale, or if you have a great relationship with an book owner and/or manager, but it's not the norm.

That Sportsbook.ag Mich HC wagering that RJ Bell is twittering, is probably just some booster's kid and his friends.
