I have a feeling a few more schools now know this guys name than a week ago.

Does it matter? How many schools have coaching vacancies right now that are better jobs than ecu? Off the top of my head- uconn, pitt, ville. Maybe 1 or 2 more. I dont see any of those schools going after odom. I think he is ecu’s if they want him

I agree, I think people are making out the tournament win to be more than it really is. That one win isn't all of a sudden going to make the blue bloods start calling. What the win did do is up his pay, UMBC will offer him a new contract and maybe double his pay. I believe he was at 230,000 so I can see them maybe getting him to $500,000. We can still beat that, we have practice facility, officers and locker rooms only a few years old, and we can throw in the contract a guarantee to update Minges within so many years. He's losing his best 2 players from this year, now is a good time for him to move. If I'm ECU and I can't get Dooley, I'm at least making Odom tell me no and then moving on to Wes Miller.
