You are correct. He took Parker's paid position.

Parker was paid - it doesn't mean Odum was paid just because he took his position on staff.
I also was told that this was the case..Any money Odum has made didn't come from Indiana State.
If correct, this is on Lansing and he took advantage of Jake in doing this. That line item was already there and accounted for on the year for Parker.
Everything is on Lansing. Got it...

I think JO would be a good retention but really what do I know, im only an expert on HC hires and fires. Im really just posting to get my level up and I feel like a year of football being stolen has affected that.

Id also like there to be an alternate level system with football names. You'd probably get to the Nichols level if you clicked a link and hadnt even registered. Or maybe even if it were a popup you didnt want to open
Coach Richardson has agreed to stay on staff. This was confirmed in the press conference.
Seemed pretty obvious, to me anyway, that Matthew Graves is close to be finalized. Schertz's smile at the question tells me he knows it's close to getting done. Just need Angie (or Clink) to give him the okay to confirm.
He was the CEO of Indiana State Men's Basketball, Inc., right?
No way in hell am I allowing my guy to not get paid, especially since the line item was already there in the budget. You were his agent at one time, reach out and verify the information. I just cannot fathom not paying someone working a professional position. In fact, I thought the University has policies against this very thing for employee protections and what not.
Hooper can confirm this with his background, but I believe "volunteer employees" are still considered employees legally in terms of protections, EEOC, etc. I know they at least are considered employees for workers' compensation benefits.

“Hey man how much you get paid?” LMAO said by no one ever. What a hilarious question to ask someone.
Well you were his agent. How the hell do you know how much of a cut you're supposed to get?
Man, this isn't a good look for the Indiana State MBA program.
I’m offended by this and so is my alma mater Indiana Weslyan University. I paid good money for that MBA.
My information is as follows:
Jake Odum was not paid by Indiana State. He was given XXXX # of dollars by an ISU donor.
When Terry Parker left....his pay slot was left open.
I have no documentary proof of this claim. It was relayed to me by a very reliable ISU fan and donor.

Just more fuel to what a bush league organization we've been running. This should NEVER happen. This is not how you treat employees. The Indiana State administration should feel MASSIVELY ASHAMED about this. They won't, but they should.

Is that money routed through the university? It has to be, right?

Literally 1 letter from making the NBA. this needs added to the players who have gone on after ISU.
Holy crap! He doesn't need any more head swelling. It's bad enough as it is...haha
Likely through the ISU Varsity Club; I'd venture at a minimum, Odum would have been "forced" to draw an absolute minimum salary, stipend from ISU in order work in any capacity
