Odom will be hard to keep. He wants to be a HC, so even if he stays we probably only get another year of him.
The other a new HC would be smart to at least consider keeping on staff.

I know people like Odom, but...

1. He only coached the Defense at Memphis for 1 winning season before coming to Mizzou.

2. Memphis actually improved as a team after he left. Was it his coaching, or Fuente's that made the difference.

3. The glaring weak spot on defense was Safeties. Coached by the guy Odom picked.

4. Odom doesn't have that signature defensive game yet. What makes him different from other good DC's. Not recruiting so far, why does he get the reins of a SEC program?

Mizzou has a shot at Herman if they offer him the same salary as was being paid to Pinkel. It's a lot, but it would make a statement about the direction of Mizzou Football.

OK, I just don't see the paranoia with losing Odom right away. I mean at some point he may get an offer, but right now I just don't see it unless it's Mizzou offering. I fail to see what he's done to bypass other qualified coaches that may be HC's already or other assistants with more tenure. He's not the only good assistant in this conference or others.
