FWIW - I hope he stays. That O that so many on this board love is really not that good. The cast of stars Dykes has should have been able to do more against good teams this season. The post-game conference last night was interesting. Dykes talked a lot about missed opportunities on O and then added a few general comments about the D needing to make tackles. The problem with Dykes' priorities were right there in the press conference. Can't imagine a good defensive recruit would want to join that program. But still hope he stays. 4 more years! Please!
