UNLV hires former Missouri coach Barry Odom to head program
LAS VEGAS (AP) — UNLV employed former Missouri soccer coach Barry Odom on Tuesday for a similar place.
He coached the Tigers from 2016-19, going 25-25 with two bowl appearances.
Odom was Arkansas’ defensive coordinator and affiliate head coach the previous three seasons.
“I’m honored and excited to start creating a relationship with our student-athletes and supply them an excellent basis for achievement in each space of their lives,” Odom stated in a press release.
UNLV will formally introduce Odom at a information convention Wednesday morning.
Odom replaces Marcus Arroyo, who was fired after going 5-7 this season and 7-23 over three years.
