Behind the curtain
In an unprecedented decision to double his pay Coach Ryan Odom has decided to hire himself to fill the roles of his 3 assistants.

Re: Behind the curtain
I'm confident that Odom is bringing his top two assistants, Bryce Crawford & Nate Dixon. Who his 3rd assistant will be is the big mystery. Does he bring in his own guy from previously? Does he get someone familiar with recruiting Utah & and the west?
Re: Behind the curtain
Whomever Odom has hired, (I'm not sure why things are so hush, hush, especially since his old staff did not get the UMBC job), they better be able to recruit their (I can't express myself without swearing)'s off. So far, it has been disappointing. I hope they can turn it around.

Re: Behind the curtain
Honestly, I feel like a lot of coaches don't fully grasp this (or are too arrogant to grasp it). They'll grab assistants they know & are comfortable with or that they know are good coaches. But truly, in that 3rd guy you just want someone who can "recruit their (I can't express myself without swearing)'s off". I really hope that happens here.bpd wrote: ↑April 13th, 2021, 9:23 pmWhomever Odom has hired, (I'm not sure why things are so hush, hush, especially since his old staff did not get the UMBC job), they better be able to recruit their (I can't express myself without swearing)'s off.

Re: Behind the curtain
I thought the rumor was that there will be an Aggie on the staff. I am assuming that is the 3rd guy unless that has fallen through.
Although, I suppose an Aggie could fill one of the other roles and not be one of the assistants and technically we would have an Aggie "on staff".

Re: Behind the curtain

Re: Behind the curtain
I hope not, I think USU can do better than hire a football junkie to be a basketball assistant coach. He probably doesn't even bring along a 7 ft nephew or anything. Hard pass from me.Chod wrote: ↑April 14th, 2021, 8:35 amI don't know if you can answer this, but did Coach Odom ask you to join his team?aggies22 wrote: ↑April 14th, 2021, 6:15 amI haven't heard about Bryce Crawford coming.

One of our sons is 6'8. Does that count?

In all seriousness, it is crazy as basketball got shorter we got taller.
