Missouri fires Barry Odom

2018: 8-5
2019: 6-6

That program is a mess right now. Surprised they are making a change.

You can’t fired a coach after consecutive bowl games!!11!1 I don’t care if the program is clearly trending downward and only going to get worse next year. It doesn’t matter if season ticket sales and general interest in the program is in free fall.

The national media will roast you alive and you will have to hire John L Smith to be the next coach!!!!

This was Roseys sure-fire lock that we were going to hire just days before we hired Moorhead

Let's offer them Moorhead. Throw in a few bucks to sweeten the deal.

Unfortunately 6-6 isn't good enough for them

We will even donate the sand the fan base can pound.

He had 4 years. They lost to Kentucky, Vandy and looked pitiful against Arkansas. If Joe does that after 4 years he’d be gone too.

Little bit different situation from Moorhead in that it was Year 4 and he was 25-25. But I mean it’s definitely possible this is where we are headed to at some point.

Getting to 6-6 is much easier now compared to a decade+ ago. I mean, you beat some cupcakes and one or two awful teams in your division and you're sitting at 6-6/7-5. Combine that with how much coaches are making nowadays, nothing wrong at all with making this decision if you're Missouri.

At MSU he would be getting an extension and raise.

Not if he beat om. He could tell Keenum to go F himself in the presser and we wouldn't care... we got the egg! Yay!

Hey....stop clouding this narrative with facts. We dont do that here. You gotta at least sprinkle some BS in there and brag about your donations. But 4 years is plenty of time.

Is South Carolina going to stick with Muschamp? His AD recently gave vocal support but his teams have regressed. He’s living off that Georgia win right now.

His buyout is north of 18 million.

Further proof that Ray Tanner is a big dumb *** at everything except baseball. Who in their right mind would take a baseball coach and turn him into an AD?

 

[Maroon Eagle]

There were a lot of folks (media as well as me— I really whiffed with them in the preseason prognosticators thread) who thought they’d have a ten-win season for them this year.

Missouri didn’t meet expectations in year 4 of Odom’s reign as coach.
