Football coach Sonny Dykes, who brought Cal from nowhere to 7-5 in three years, is history. He'll sign as new coach of Mizzou shortly.

Nice find. Not surprised, that fits in a lot of ways. So what Cal recruits can we poach?

This!

Get Leavitt a case a Pepsi, a plane ticket, and let's flip some talent.

 

[Johnny Juzang]

Yeah, I have no idea who that guy is.

Jeff Tedford to Cal. FACT!

If Bobo is a guy you would have interviewed and possibly hired based on his work as OC at Georgia, in no way should him going to CSU and going 7-5 as a HC while breaking in a new QB be something that should give you pause as an AD or fan of a program.

@liverflukes please advise on the status of cal boards. They aren't as smart as stanford boards, so I don't go there.

Paco Perez should be their first call. Need the OL help.

Good call. We did make his final list previously.

Missouri reporter Dave matter says the random twitter guy is incorrect.

 

[Shldr2Shldr]

twitter reports are that Dykes is in the running but is not YET mizzou coach.

But we already started fantasy poaching his recruits!?!?

 

[Creebuzz]

Bear Insider is certainly acting like there will be no Dykes in Berkeley.

I thought there were only dykes in berkeley

 

[leftybuff]

Just bumping around, Dykes is still in play but another name coming up on the Mizzou job is Larry Fedora.

 

[dply]

So Mizzou is going to either hire a MRA or a Dykes?

 

[Buffnik]

But we already started fantasy poaching his recruits!?!?

I'd be more interested in poaching Brandon Jones off the staff to coach the OL.

 

[onealcd]

Depends on the OC he brings in but I really like DJ Durkin to Maryland.

That would be a dumb move.

 

[CVilleBuff]

Richt continuing to look around. In Charlottesville at the moment

 

[aik]

But Mark Richt already started fantasy poaching his recruits!?!?

FIFY

 

[leftybuff]

DJ Durkin to Maryland per SI.

Chris Ash pulls out of the 'Cuse search

Sounds like Babers will end up at Syracuse with Ash going to Rutgers. Speculation from multiple "first to tweet or blog" type sources.

Why is Dykes unhappy at Cal?

 

[onealcd]

Why is Dykes unhappy at Cal?

He is a Texas guy and they over reacted to APR problems and are now more strict than ever with academic admissions.

 

[leftybuff]

Why is Dykes unhappy at Cal?

Lots of speculation Cal is tightening academic requirements for student athletes, wanting to spend less on coaches salaries etc. Plus Dykes is a Texan through and through. He is like a cowboy at a symphony concert. Good coach, but now that he has his feet wet in the P5, my guess is Dykes is looking to go south.

EDIT: See above.

AD now also different than who hired him. That can cause philosophy clashes.
