  • UNLV should do whatever necessary to keep Barry Odom as its football coach. It's the "whatever necessary" part that sometimes becomes tough to navigate. People will call. Schools from Power Four conferences will be interested in Odom.

The article by Ed Graney discusses the potential hiring of Barry Odom as the head football coach for UNLV. Odom, who previously served as the head coach at Missouri and is currently the defensive coordinator at Arkansas, has emerged as a top candidate for the UNLV position following the dismissal of Marcus Arroyo. However, UNLV faces competition from other universities interested in Odom, including Boise State, which is also in the market for a new coach after Andy Avalos was let go. The article highlights Odom's successful tenure at Missouri, where he managed to turn around the team's performance, and his current role where Arkansas has shown significant defensive improvements under his guidance. The interest in Odom underscores his reputation as a coach capable of revitalizing football programs.
