When SMU hired Sonny Dykes in December to be its new head coach, there was one question that really mattered to Mustang fans.
Yes, he had success at the non-"power five" level at Louisiana Tech. Yes, he's produced NFL standouts like Rob Gronkowski and the newly crowned Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles.
But can he recruit in Texas?
It's the question that's asked of every new head coach at every school in the state. It's a fair line of inquisition, considering the level of competition for prospects here, both from Lone Star State programs and poachers from out of the state.
