Been removed from the Vegas scene for three years, so not near on top of the situation as in years past.
By the way, I think you will enjoy and learn from Kevin O'Neils handicapping football essays, know I have over the years.

2 great books on basketball. First is "Investing in College Basketball" by Seidel. This has the content and detail most pros would never give out, since I doubt he realizes how valuable what he knows is. The second is "Basketball on Paper" by Oliver. It focuses on the big picture, and how player and strategy changes can affect things. It is a must-read for prop players.
A coming book "Professional Poker" by Mark Blade gets about a high a recommendation as I can get. I will write more about this in an upcoming column. Its a unique title, something completely different from most books and fills in a very important whole. Sort of along the lines of "Gambling for a Living", but at a more specific level. Has something for everyone from high-stakes pros down to the very recreational player.

Seidel's book is very good, and is a great guide on how to be organized and really break down a team and the line.
Where can I get this Oliver book?
I'm also interested in this O'Neil author? I have both Trace Fields' works on college football and basketball. An updated college football manual would be a good idea.
