Sonny Dykes Named Head Coach At Louisiana Tech

The coaching carousel keeps spinning, and this time it was Ruston, Louisiana’s turn to make news. (Bet you don’t hear that often.) Lousiana Tech, having lost head coach and athletics director Derek Dooley to Tennessee, has hired Arizona Wildcats offensive coordinator Sonny Dykes to handle the head coaching part of Dooley’s job.

Stay with Arizona Desert Swarm for the latest on where the Wildcats go from here.
