Memphis has decided to move on from Barry Odom. It's over. Story to come.

Obviously. Watch him end up as Saban's new DC.

I hope this doesn't mean we have missed on MR's primary targets. But Odom as HC wouldn't be a terrible thing.

This is exhausting.

I was told Odom did not yet have an offer at Missouri, Memphis just decided to move on to next candidate, whom they have already identified.

I told you guys there was a reason for the nervous nellies.

If I had to guess Plan A is coming together though.

Now we get A, B, or Odom. Odom stays on with A or B or lands somewhere else. He won't have any trouble I would think.

His Mizzou loyalty is impressive. He wanted the Memphis gig

It's simpler than that.

Plan A happens and Odom stays cause it's the tits.

Plan B is Odom.

The natives were restless because there was worry about plan A and Memphis killing plan B.

Either Plan A is a go, or Odom will be our next coach.

Win-win IMO.

We'll all be happy, because either way an A+ staff is being assembled.

I agree.

And Odom has a couple of SEC DC job offers. So he has some security. If not stability.

What if we hired Fedora and Odom stayed on as DC?

You would be the top program in the East not named Florida.

Okay, so let's go with this.

If everything is in place and everyone is going to wind up happy, what was Denver about.

Don't need who you think it was, just what you think it was.

See there is this. B4 everyone get's excited, let's remember who we are, be safe, buckle up, and install our mizzou issued nut cups.

To be safe

Well, when MR went to Denver, he didn't know what was up with Odom and Memphis. Right?

Also, due diligence and publicly conducting the search he has to conduct.

He's not just hiring a head coach.

There's other stuff going on.

Plus, he's an AD, maybe some of these stops are for other things.

What a huge selling point this could be to any coach considering the MU job. One of the top rising star DCs in the nation will (probably, depending on who the hire is and whether Odom is receptive to other offers) be there with you.

That makes me feel much better, whether we end up hiring Plan A, Plan B, or Sonny Dykes. The Dykes rumors were scaring me, but the thought of him with Odom calms me down plenty.
