If this account wasn't started in 2012 I would be certain it was just a troll

That's right. I'm your senior. Been here longer. Have some respect.

His father is Dave Odom, who was a very good coach at Wake forest for many years. He coached Tim Duncan among others. . Don't know much about Ryan but obviously he was exposed to basketball & coaching all of his life.

Thanks, remember Dave good coach and Wake was relevant then.

I'm cool being me. I'll be me all day before I'm you. At least I respect people.

Not sure why the mods don't ban people who personally attack other posters. Pretty ridiculous.

I think we should hire Sister Jean!

Steve Lavin, he deserves another chance.

2018 NCAA tournament: Suddenly, UMBC's Ryan Odom is hot name in coaching

It happens more often than you think. Sadly.

Is it so much to ask for people not to be adult online bullies? What sad life's, calling strangers names.

Eastern Carolina was considered the favorite for Odom before last night.

Honestly, I never heard of Jim Calhoun before he came to UCONN, so despite the snark the OP will have to endure for this thread I get his thought process. Geez guys - take a breath.

That statement says a lot more about you than it does about Jim Calhoun:

"During his final three seasons, Northeastern achieved automatic bids to the NCAA tournament and had a 72–19 record. He received six regional Coach of the Year accolades at Northeastern and remains the institution's all-time winningest coach (245–138)."

That doesn't sound like Odom to me, but maybe I'm missing something.

Odom’s roots are in the Virginia-Carolina area, I doubt he leaves it.

I hop he ends up at ECU and does well.

Geez @tcf15 has even more pull than I thought...

You look great tonight

Hurley has the best resume out of all of those mentioned and hopefully will be the next UConn coach.

Means he can coach bigs

Best night on the Boneyard in quite some time

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

The man did a masterful coaching job in that Virginia game. Maybe UConn should roll the dice and take a chance on him.

Pay him in Trident gum too.

He would absolutely leave it for us. Hell, he might leave it for URI after we hire Hurley.

But if he's good there, he'd be on the radar of every ACC or SEC team, and he'd almost certainly head back down south eventually.
