Odom Hires Familiar Face: South Carolina coach Dave Odom turned back the clock to replace assistant coach Ricky Stokes, who left the Gamecocks to become head coach at East Carolina. Odom hired Ken Potosnak, who worked with Odom as a graduate assistant at Wake Forest in the early 1990s, to replace Stokes. Potosnak had been an assistant at Furman for the past eight years. He also had been an assistant at the Citadel. At Furman, Potosnak developed several international ties on the recruiting trail, which could be helpful for South Carolina as Odom tries to elevate the program into a perennial contender in the SEC.
