If you are in this business very long, you learn that bad news tends to arrive at 5 p.m. on Fridays.
And this sure seems like bad news.
Missouri football coach Barry Odom has hired his offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Fans of the Tigers know this is huge because a) it could impact quarterback Drew Lock’s pending decision about entering the NFL draft or returning for his senior season, and more importantly b) it will without a doubt impact how the Odom era plays out at Mizzou.
Odom, a former defensive coordinator and linebacker, started the search for Josh Heupel’s replacement knowing he needed to locate and hire a coordinator capable of commanding the offense without oversight.
