Harrison P. Kent IV is the Chief Executive Officer & Co-Founder of Kent Analytics, based in Manhattan, New York.

Born in April of 1981 to Harrison P. Kent III and Beatrice Lucille Kent (née Williams), Harrison P. Kent IV spent his childhood at the esteemed, forty-five million dollar family estate in Greenwich, Connecticut. From his infancy, Kent exhibited supreme intellect for his age, first attracting attention from universities nationwide at age 9. Driven by his fear of attending a disreputable or public university, Kent continued furthering his knowledge in his youth by indulging in even the most archaic and sophisticated classics at the prestigious Kent family library. After winning the Connecticut Latin Bee at age 11, Kent began communicating with the deans at Harvard University, where his paternal lineage had studied for the past eight generations. Kent was accepted into Harvard at age 15, graduating summa cum laude in 2000 as a member of the Phi Beta Kappa society with a double major in Economics & Classics.

Spending his youth in a household that prioritized academic rather than athletic prowess, Harrison P. Kent IV did not have much exposure to athletics at a young age. It was not until he was a student at Harvard that he discovered the sport of American football. After watching only one half of a game between the Denver Broncos and the San Diego Chargers did Kent discover the sheer simplicity with which the sport can be broken down analytically. Within weeks, Kent had produced an algorithm capable of correctly predicting the outcomes of approximately 96% of NFL games and 94% of college games. It was then that he partnered with his cousin and fellow classmate, Robert R. Smith, to patent the algorithm. Upon graduating from Harvard, Kent had endless job opportunities, but knew deep down that he did not have to work a day in his life because of the particularly large endowment he would one day receive upon the passing of his parents. Nonetheless, Kent felt an obligation to share his masterful knowledge of American Football with the world. Kent sued Smith for all of the rights to the patent. After successfully suing for theft of intellectual property, Kent regained total and complete control of the patent. After using his algorithms privately for exclusively large net-worth clients, Kent decided to bring Kent Analytics public in 2017.

While other analytics networks may look at recent headlines and be hindered by fanfare, Kent Analytics is fully grounded in quantitative data and analytics that are guaranteed to produce more precise results than any other competitor. Kent Analytics has never strayed far from its roots - namely the nearly impeccable algorithm founded by Kent in 1999. Needless to say, the algorithm is fine-tuned and re-weighted annually to ensure the most up to date and precise results, and to reflect any major changes in the sport. Kent Analytics is most known for the “Outcome Projector,” in which the winner of any NFL game is predicted with 99.1% precision, and the winner of any college game predicted with 98.5% precision. Although the network debuted a score differential predictor for NFL games last year, this predictor had to be discontinued following a baseless inquiry from the NFL in conjunction with the FBI purely due to the staggering precision of this predictor (99.76%). When the inquiry concludes, we will reopen this metric to the public. Furthermore, Kent Analytics is known for its esteemed player rankings, which combine comprehensive statistics and environmental factors to produce true player quality rankings not influenced by public opinion or media. Lastly, Kent Analytics features individual player predictions, which are predicted with an average certainty of 95.3%. These predictions include where a player may land in free agency, as well as the likelihood of injury to the player.
