As soon as new coach Sonny Dykes took over, he got out of town, hitting the road alongside his cavalcade of swag as hell assistants trying to cover nearly every square inch of Texas with a mission of bringing stars back to Fort Worth. With Ra’Shaad Samples, Bryan Carrington and others seeming to stop at nearly every high school in the Lone Star State within their first few days on the job, momentum began building among kids both formerly committed to TCU (and SMU for that matter) as well as those yet to be offered in the class of 2022 and beyond.
