    I gotta say it. I don't like Odom b/c Dan beat him when we played Mizzou. If I remember Dan rolled him pretty good.

    Odom would not be in my top #10. I believe we can do better than him.

    Not vouching for him but his tenure at Mizzou was weird with a bowl ban & campus protests that just about destroyed the school. Recruiting couldn't have been easy

    I think we're a top 25 job if our NIL is rumored to be correct

    The media would say we're about the 40th best job in the country.

    Odom wouldn't excite the fan base.

    Winning does, so he could win us over. But he wouldn't fire everyone up.

    Odom is very interested in the job. I mentioned that earlier this week that he has high interest. This not new news. He is trying very hard to get an interview.

    Then put him on the back burner, and use him as a last resort

    I'm not seeing much fanfare with Herman. I thought being the only HC with big boy experience at the helm would create more interest. He's cheaper too.

    Is he going to get it? Has there been any interviews? I assume Selmon is narrowing down the list before interviewing.

    He has no interest in making a lateral move. Especially with Texas and OU leaving. His next job is a blue blood

    Gary Pinkel was the HC at Mizzou when we beat them pretty good on a Thursday Night up there with Dak.

    There's just no fcking way Kansas to MSU is a lateral move. But I get that it's a risky move.

    Coulda sworn it was Odom's first year as HC. Oh well, it doesn't change my feelings about him.

    And we need to get this hire right and done quickly b/c if the A&M boards are to be believed Lane is going to be their next head coach.

    How is it not? Texas and OU have left the Big 12. He can win 10 games with some luck in that league.

    We however cannot. Have you looked at our schedule next year? It's going to be like that every year from now on. Texas, OU plus the Big 6 of the SEC puts us fighting hard to stay in the Top 12 of the SEC

    NIL and Realignment has changed everything

    Selmon is keeping everything very tight lipped but doing an exhaustive search. Haven't heard a specific interview yet but we have reached out to several. Fritz, Sumrall, Lebby, Malzhan, Chadwell...several more we have reached out to. Judge, Odom and Petrino are very interested and pushing to get in the door.

    Yes but do we really care what the offense looks like or simply rather that it's successful. Don't think we'd necessarily call Georgia's offense exciting.

    Many have a very hard realizing the fact that with NIL and realignment things have drastically changed.

    I agree. I told some at ON3 we would be a lateral move for him and some about blew a fuse. But if anything, our job is harder as far as reaching the playoffs is concerned.
