I'm a 25-year-old originally from Little Rock, Arkansas, now based in Dallas, Texas, and I've had a love for all sports from a young age. Here's the thing that always amazed people about me...
As bad as I was at math in school, I always had this unique knack for sports stats. My dad would joke with me about how I was so terrible at basic math, yet I could recite every player's exact stats from a game a day ago — or even two weeks ago. I'd struggle with simple algebra homework, but ask me about LeBron's shooting percentage in the fourth quarter against the Celtics from last Tuesday? I'd rattle off not just his stats, but the entire team's performance, down to rebounds, assists, and even how many turnovers they had in clutch time.
My dad would shake his head in disbelief. He'd say, "Trey, you can't figure out what X equals in a basic equation, but you just told me the exact field goal percentage of a player from a random game two weeks ago." It became a running joke in our house — I was the kid who failed math tests but could serve as a walking sports encyclopedia.
I had this unique ability to analyze patterns and remember details that others would forget instantly. While my classmates were cramming formulas, I was unconsciously developing pattern recognition skills that would prove far more valuable.
I could see trends in player performance, notice when teams performed differently in specific situations, and remember statistical anomalies that most people would never even notice.
I didn't realize it at the time, but this natural gift would one day bring me exactly where I am today. That same brain that couldn't handle traditional math was actually processing complex statistical relationships and probability patterns at an advanced level.
What started as a quirky talent for remembering sports statistics has evolved into a systematic approach to sports investing that consistently generates returns.
That same analytical mind that could recall obscure player stats now identifies value in betting markets that others completely miss.
The pattern recognition that seemed useless in school became the foundation of a profitable system that turns sports knowledge into predictable financial growth.
