Odom is a good hire. He’ll stick around since he failed as HC once already. Kinda prefer him to Freeman but both are fine. It’s just that Freeman will be leaving in a year or two.

Would be news to us although I would love Odom. WR coach wouldnt make sense, we have heard Sam Carter the db coach though.

Where are you seeing that Odom is headed to Texas? Not doubting just don't see anything on it currently taking the position.

quote:

The Razorbacks defense improved in its first year under Odom, allowing 34.9 points per game, a two point improvement from 2019. Prior to joining Sam Pittman's staff, Odom helped Missouri to back-to-back SEC Championship Games (2013-14) as Gary Pinkel's defensive coordinator from 2012-15, prior to taking over as head coach before the 2016 season.

Odom's 2015 unit finished sixth nationally in total defense, allowing slightly more than 300 yards per game.

The report comes less than a day after reports surfaced indicating that Arkansas wide receivers coach, Justin Stepp, was leaving Fayetteville to join Shane Beamer at South Carolina in the same position.

That would be great news for LSU if that were the case.

I'm starting to wish Odom would just go somewhere so I can stop seeing these threads

Stepp (WR Coach) is from South Car and has taken the same position on their staff.

Pittman must have put together a great staff.

We’ve already replaced the WR coach with a Briles guy.

Will be a shame when they all end up on their arse after Texas goes 9-3 for the 3rd consecutive year.

I give O all the credit in the world for going from trying to get his own version of Venables (as in a guy who will be here for a long time) to hiring the very best DC on the market, but I gotta say, I dont love the idea of a one-and-done. were volatile and stability would be great. we need to win above all else of course but, in a perfect world, we wouldnt have to do this every year.

Don’t be.... Ponamsky can call Brady if Freeman falls through and get another name for DC.

I’m the opposite. I want him to be so great that everybody is offering him a head coaching job or NFL DC job after the first year. If that happens, it most likely means LSU is in the CFP with a great defense.
