DALLAS — Sonny Dykes picked up the Stallings Award on Tuesday at the Dallas Country Club, the latest in a long list of national-coach-of-the-year merits. Just how many, the TCU coach couldn’t say. Even his wife, Kate, wasn’t sure. You know it’s been a good year when your loving spouse doesn’t know how much hardware clutters your mantle.
For the record, that makes 10. Pretty much a consensus, then, that Sonny did a better job than anyone in college football last season, and apparently nobody held what happened at SoFi Stadium against him.
Well, nobody but Jimbo Fisher.
