Thomas Casale

Casale on Campus

A frequent guest on national radio and TV shows to discuss college sports, Thomas started playing football sheets at 8 years old when his dad was the local bookie. He's been betting -- and winning -- for more than 30 years. Thomas sets his own lines for each game, then looks at the metrics to see where he can find an edge in the number. Over the past three college basketball seasons, Thomas is 341-208 (62.1 percent) -- all publicly documented. He joined SportsLine in 2024 and promptly went 28-14-1 (67 percent) in CBB, returning $1,215 to $100 players. Casale serves as the sports betting director for NOLA.com and previously worked for the Action Network and theScore as an editor and analyst. He also co-hosted the BetQL U college basketball podcast with Eli Hershkovich. Always looking to beat the odds, Thomas turned his two sons into long snappers so they can get scholarships and attend college for free.
