Isn't Odom just too easy for Wake?

Odom is not thought to be a major candidate.
Now Wes Miller on the other hand is. Note that Miller's father is on the Board of Trustee's at Wake.
Matta is their clear #1 if he is healthy enough to coach and right now that is a big if.

Is Matta's condition a chronic issue? I don't mean to say that in a disparaging manner. I just mean that he has been out of coaching for a few years now, maybe he has discovered some therapy that has worked for him. I suffer intermittent back pain for going on 20 years now (spasms, abrasions etc) and they are no fun but there are some things that have helped (weight loss most notably). I don't know what specific affliction he suffers from but it is possible he has found some relief in his time off.
My vague recollection is that it's something much more serious than "just" chronic back pain.
Iirc, he's got drop foot and some other stuff along with it.
also something I’ve experienced. His is permanent? That would be brutal

I believe he was in a car accident and suffered permanent nerve damage as a result

I think that is about the best case scenario for Wake.
He'll have to change his recruiting strategy for Wake and he should be able to given his past asst coach experience.
The ETSU roster had 6 JUCO's, 5 HS, and 2 transfers.

Sounds like, "We know we owe you $15 million, Danny...but, we don't want to pay it all to you, do you really want to fight in court? Let's meet in the middle somewhere...way less than $15 million."

Wake Forest has hired ETSU head basketball coach Steve Forbes. This is a homerun hire for the Demon Deacons!

I think he'll guide WF to the NIT Tournament this season.
Sarr has turned into a player but with Childress and Brown leaving its going to be tough. Don't for a second that the DuBose kid is going to put up numbers like he did at Houston Baptist. They were one of the fastest-paced teams in the nation last season that didn't play any defense and only won 5 games. Rude awakening coming.
I do like Mucius but it wont be enough.

Steve Forbes is a lot like his former boss Bruce Pearl and he recruits like him which means he'll get a good bit of talent to go to Winston-Salem but he's also going get the attention of the NCAA.
