Sonny Dykes Talks Tennessee Job, Evolved Look at Coaching Carousel

UNIVERSITY PARK, Texas — Sonny Dykes may have looked at it differently 10 years ago, or even three years ago.

He was younger then, trying to make a name for himself in the coaching sphere.

But now, when job opportunities like Tennessee come calling, Dykes likes to say he has a different outlook on the process. One that is more mature, furnished by coaching stops past and present.

“As a young coach, sometimes you chase jobs, and those logos are important to you and all that. And I’m way past that,” Dykes said in a media availability this afternoon.
