Season Opener with a New Head Coach No separate adjustment

Eric Morris begins his first Oklahoma State season; Tulsa returns Tre Lamb. Across 38 comparable games, markets averaged 0.86 points toward the returning coach at the final recorded line in the full sample. However, the 24 games with provider-level opening data centered near zero at opening, at the final recorded line, and in later movement. We identify the condition for transparency but apply no Factor points.
