Dave Odom, after being among 3,400 noisy basketball fans for two hours, had some alone time late Friday evening. The former South Carolina coach was part of the ESPN3 broadcast for USC-Wofford and now he was driving home to Winston-Salem.
Naturally the scrapbook pages started to turn in his head.
“I kind of reminisced in my own mind,” Odom said by phone Saturday afternoon. “It was fun thinking about all the great times I had at South Carolina. It was really good.”
Odom, 75, will soon jet off to Hawaii to serve his duty as Maui Invitational chairman.
