Odom: Wasn't lying when he said he put me through the ringer. Grew tired of hearing about process. Was ready for decision/to get to work.

Odom said he keeps copious notes from meetings with Pinkel, Alden, Rhoades, etc. Unclear if it's an Alden-like binder.

Odom: Grateful for Pinkel bringing him in as grad asst. "I wouldn't be here today if I had't had opp to work with him."

Barry Odom drops his first "sweat equity" as Missouri's head coach. One of his favorites.

Odom: Told Pinkel about his desire to be a HC when meeting about DC job last December, but never let himself dream about MU job.
