His biggest problem outside of being a flaming douche is his ego..

We’re still paying for BO’s shitshows. Most of us knew that going into the season.

The good news is that Eli is a good recruiter and I hope the STL media don’t run him out of the state.

God knows they love doing that.

Most everyone being honest was predicting between 6-8 wins. We knew our front 7 was in rough shape.

People sour on coaches when teams are losing no doubt, but the vast majority realized this was a pretty significant rebuild and Drink is recruiting quite well so he still has vast majority support.

Our best player on defense is maybe a transfer CB from Tulsa.

It’s year two, stop blaming Odom.


This really pisses of Arkansas fans but Odom could not recruit. That’s the main issue. Unless you’re Gary Pinkel (who still recruited better than Odom) you can’t win with vastly inferior talent. Everyone thought we’d win two games last year because Odom’s roster sucked so bad and we went 5-5. We’ve lost two right road games to decent teams this year because our defense has very little talent. It is what it is. The talent is being upgraded and it’s going to take awhile.

In b4 some people start claiming, “It’s all Barry’s fault.”

How about we send you to the Sun Belt. All that talent down there and still can’t win the big one.

No souring yet. If we are not on a significant upswing by year four, then things would sour. Not to sound like a broken record, but Barry Odom really did a number on us in terms of the utter lack of talent he recruited:

2016: 43rd ranked class nationally; 13th SEC
2017: 43rd nationally; 13th SEC
2018: 43rd nationally; 13th SEC
2019: 37th nationally; 13th SEC
2020: 51st nationally; 13th SEC


Odom wasn't cut out for the big chair and I'm sure still isn't. DC is his high water mark.

As you pointed out his recruiting sucked. His media relations were root canal painful. He single-handedly destroyed the DLineZou pipeline Pinkel created. His game-clock management was awful.

He had the time to prove himself and improve, but he just wasn't ready to be a head coach in the SEC.
