The Vegas Sports Information Network or Vegas Stat & Information Network is not to be confused with the Sports Information Traders sports handicapping service. Sports Information Traders is ran by radio host and legend Jon Price. VSI or VSiN is a Las Vegas, Nevada venture started by veteran sports analyst 77 year old Brent Musburger. Musburger worked for ESPN as a sports broadcast announcer in College Basketball and has been known to talk about backdoor covers and related sports betting stats in games that would seem otherwise irrelevant if it weren’t for the total or point spread.
Now located at the South Point Hotel & Casino the sports betting network and studio will be heard live on Sirius XM satellite radio. Historically satellite radio stations have played sports betting advice commercials in the past and has most recently banned any type of sports betting until now. The studio is located just outside of the Vegas Sportsbook inside the South Point Hotel and plans to be a comprehensive betting show without the “Tout” aspect that is commonly heard on air. Touts are known to be cocky and are typically those who think they know how to beat the bookmakers. In time there will be 24 hour programming and live streaming videos on VSIN.com. Being the first sports betting network is an exciting thing for the industry.
Brent Musburgers career also spanned him covering the Super Bowl, NBA Finals, March Madness, and NCAA’s Final Four. He hosted the NFL Today pre-game show for 14 seasons from 1975-1989 on CBS Sports, did play-by-play announcing for ABC Sports, and most recently was announcing for ESPN’s college basketball games until his retirement to entire the sports handicapping world.
