Sonny Dykes and Kirby Smart are on top of the college football mountaintop, preparing to play in tonight’s CFB Playoff National Championship. Long before they were household names, they were football guys looking to get their foot in the door. Chris Hatcher, a former University of Kentucky assistant, helped make it happen.
Chris Hatcher is best known around the Big Blue Nation as the guy who taught Tim Couch the Air Raid by drawing on napkins at a Hooters. He was a graduate assistant with Sonny Dykes on Hal Mumme’s first coaching staff at Kentucky in 1997.
