SMU is ready to announce the hire of TCU offensive analyst Sonny Dykes as its new head coach, reports say.
A press conference is scheduled for 11 a.m. Tuesday at SMU.
Dykes spent this season with the Horned Frogs as an analyst, a non-coaching and non-recruiting position, helping evaluate the offense and prepare game plans. TCU began the season 7-0 with the nation’s best third-down offense en route to a runner-up finish in the Big 12 and Alamo Bowl berth.
Dykes, 48, is the son of former Texas Tech coach Spike Dykes and a former Cal and Louisiana Tech head coach.
