9-3 …. 18 (or 19, or 20) wins over two seasons … is what we do in a decade. Yeah, would be huge. And we will and should want more and if Odom is here, he will want more. That’s all I want. Progress. A vision and movement towards it. Not slow growth loser mindset.
My following take is based purely on speculation.
I think Odom is here long term barring a couple things.
I believe there are 3 maybe 4 jobs that if they opened he would jump ship. Call them 'dream jobs'.
I also believe money always talks. So there is also always the chance that somebody outside of those three or four jobs throws stupid money at him maybe he bolts.
That said I don't think he jumps ship for just any P4 job even for a bump in pay. It would need to be substantial.
Take a school like Indiana. As good of a coach as he had been here I simply don't think you can move the needle much at a P4 like that. 8-4 consistently would be great for them, but you aren't sniffing the CFP there.
I believe jobs like Boise, Memphis, Fresno and UNLV are actually more desirable with the expanded playoff format. It's an easier path than mid tier P4 programs.
Not saying he won't bolt at some point. I just don't think he is actively looking to leave because he believes he can make UNLV competitive and a top G5 destination and that's not a bad place to be now.
