"Odom was born in Durham, North Carolina, when his father was the high school basketball coach at the former Durham High School.[2] Odom lived in Charlottesville from third through tenth grade.[8] During this time, he would ride his bike to University Hall to watch UVA teams at practice and was a ball boy for their home games.[8] He recalls being in attendance when Virginia defeated Indiana and advanced to the 1984 Final Four to face Houston's Phi Slama Jama and star Hakeem Olajuwon.[9]
After his father was named head coach at Wake Forest, Odom graduated from Richard J. Reynolds High School in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in 1992. He went on to graduate from Hampden–Sydney College in 1996, with a degree in economics.[2] His father, Dave, was surprised that his son went into coaching and figured he would "make millions" on Wall Street for his career instead.[10]"

IIRC
Wasn't he a candidate when Mike Young was hired?

wouldn’t trade MY for anyone in the country. There is a reason announcers keep saying MY has one of the the best—if not THE best—offensive minds in college basketball.

Did not say Odom is better, just that had VT wanted to hire him, that was the time, not now.
Give Mike the talent and the sky's the limit.
He won the ACC tourney for us with mostly his Wofford guys!
