Sonny Dykes has coached at Louisiana Tech, Cal, SMU for about 80% of his career and has a 57% career winning %.

Sark has coached at Washington, USC and Texas and has a 62% winning %.

One coach has been underappreciated, one has massively underachieved (and somehow is considered the better coach).

Perceptions are weird, and hard to shake. Whether positive or negative.

Are you really comparing stepping into a coaching role at LaTech, Cal, and SMU to Washington, USC, and Texas? One path has to rebuild every season, the other reloads. Come on.

Maybe you misunderstood.

I'm saying a 57% winning % at La Tech, Cal, SMU and TCU is more impressive than a 62% winning % at Washington, USC and Texas. And I'd probably argue far more impressive, because if you're not winning at least 2/3 of your games at UT, something is wrong. Yet if you see any "best coaches" list, Sarkisian is almost always listed higher than Dykes.

As I said, perceptions or reputations or whatever you want to call them are strange. And hard to shake.

Even a larger indictment...should be better than just beating UTEP, San Jose State, and Sam Houston State.

...but Tech is buying players.

Don't care how far Texas falls this year, next August they will be projected in the top 10 schools for the year 2026.

Yes, I misunderstood the point you were making, my apologies. Thank you for the clarification.

Even I could recruit at Texas. Just walk in the 4*/5*'s house wearing a burnt orange shirt hand the prospect your burnt orange pen the kid will sign. All jobs should be so easy!
Then after three or four years on a mediocre team, leave to be an all-pro in the NFL!

UT woulda been better off hiring GP! As much as I hate those culeros!
