Barry Odom's confident. He can out-steak St. Elmo. He will turn Purdue football around — The Indianapolis Star

'If outworking people still exists, Barry Odom will be the guy that outworks you. If it comes down to scheming, he'll be the one out scheming you.'

39 TDs on a torn ACL his senior year in hs...wow.

St. Elmos is over rated. Just like ND.

A quick marinade in some homemade “ joy juice “ a simple kosher salt/ cracked pepper rub, and a dollop of compound butter after they’re smoked and seared to perfection on my Traeger …:

"ran for 39 touchdowns his senior season on a torn ACL" - how is that even possible? 3 TD's per game? on a bad knee?

OK, whoever made that quote probably didn't read this paragraph carefully:

"Odom finished his high school career as the state leader with 39 touchdowns as he led his Ada team to the state title. All the while, McBroom said he was in awe of how a teenage football star who the community adored and praised and boasted about could stay so grounded."

I think Barry Odom at least has a floor of Danny Hope, which is miles ahead of Walters/Hazel. He might not be a great fit/coach but he's competent and can succeed with P2 resources to at least a limited extent.

Now that's not a ringing endorsement, but I will (and I think many others here will as well) take that in a heartbeat over the 2024 season.

Meh. I think he’s a good coach and knows how to win. He showed that at UNLV fairly obviously. Now the caveat there is that he won at a resource rich place relative to their conference competition.

Obviously he will never have that here.

That said, a guy who can recruit good players, puts a disciplined team on the field, scheme some advantages and win 5-8 games here should be fairly well lauded by the fans.

Until we invest big donor money (which is wildly unlikely since we don’t have it) this is who we are as a program. That said, I don’t think anybody here would complain after the Hazell and Walters regimes.
