The words “job security” and “Odom” were not supposed to meet in the same sentence in 2019. Now that all-too-familiar topic is all people want to discuss. What a deflating trip it’s been.
Florida, ranked 12th, comes to town next. The Gators just mashed Vanderbilt, 56-0. The Tigers lost at Vanderbilt, which is now 2-7.
Had the Tigers not dissolved against Vanderbilt and Kentucky, the program’s pending appeal of its postseason ban would have been a national story. The college football weekend would have revolved around Alabama-LSU, and Missouri’s fate. Mizzou’s cooperation in the NCAA investigation would have been revisited again, and the NCAA’s overreaching punishment and delay on determining the outcome of the appeal would have been perfect fodder for Sterk’s “Make it Right” campaign.
