Sonny Dykes is heading to the Big 12 but staying in the state of Texas.
According to multiple reports, Dykes will be the next head coach at TCU, replacing Gary Patterson.
TCU let go of Patterson on Oct. 31, and Dykes, in his fourth season at SMU, was quickly identified as a potential replacement for the Horned Frogs. Yahoo Sports’ Pete Thamel reported last week that the “overwhelming expectation” for the TCU job was that it would be filled by Dykes.
Dykes has been the head coach at SMU since Dec. 2017.
