Nice Q & A interview here with Daniel Jones of the Tribune:
Couple of quotes below:
what’s your opinion on the job he’s (Barry Odom) done for the last two years?
The thing that impressed me about last year was the 1-5 start, then you saw the press conference where he said, “We’re going to be fine, I think we’re going to do well, we’re going to come out well.” You’re thinking, yeah, whatever. Then to go and win and actually get the team to win six straight games and get to a bowl game, I thought was huge. I have to tell you, midseason, I was wondering, what the heck is going on? Why is he having press conferences like this? When the season was over, it was like, “Hm. This guy did a pretty good job.”
over/under for wins for Missouri
For Missouri this year, I’m going to have to put it at eight. I think eight’s a legitimate number for them. I would have them be an underdog home against Georgia, at South Carolina, at Alabama and at Florida. I think Florida is going to be a much-improved team this year, but I could see Missouri favored in all the rest of their games.
