One of the great differences between Lupoi and Dykes:
"Dykes also said he did not encourage any of his former players at Louisiana Tech to consider following their coach to Berkeley, calling it 'bad business.'"
Another impressive point:
"We've had to move on from some kids academically who we thought weren't going to be admitted," Dykes said. "We've got to be real careful about the students we bring in here. It's rigorous. It's tough. Guys have got to be well prepared. That's a good thing."
Glad we have a coach with high ethical standards. I really like his approach in a number of ways. One of those ways has to do with creating a "family atmosphere" at practice. My impression is that Sonny is a very personable guy, which I admire and appreciate a lot--and I believe the players will too. Don't know if it's a fair comparison but Bobby Bowden comes to mind in that regard.
Finally, I like his commitment and work ethic. Article says he will be putting in the hours and travelling all over before LOI day. The impression has been that he and his staff have really rolled up their sleeves and this confirms it.

I've lived less than 2 miles from Piedmont from a decade.
It wasn't until a year or 2 ago that I realized that David Letterman's annual tradition of inviting the Piedmont High birdcallers was from THAT Piedmont.
Anyways, I hope Dykes enjoys Fenton's.

Let's not start mapping out "local knowledge" shortcuts on a public message board. Those of us who have lifetimes getting around in the complex system of obstacles and turnabouts that is Berkeley would appreciate it.
