Mizzou probably can't afford Meyer.

In addition to his salary, Meyer would undoubtedly demand a lot of additional resources to beef up the program, i.e. assistant coaches' salaries, additional staff, national recruiting, etc.
If Meyer is paid 10 million, that's roughly 7 million more than Odom. The "extras" that Meyer would require would probably run at least another 7 or 8 million. That's bumping the total additional cost to the 15 million range. The current football budget is about 24 million. That's a sixty percent increase.
