Texas A&M is hiring Memphis' Darrell Dickey as offensive coordinator. Dickey, 58, spent this past season as Memphis' OC -- his second stint in the position -- and also held the coordinator title at Texas State, New Mexico, Utah State and SMU. He went 42-64 in nine seasons as North Texas' head coach and returns to the SEC for the first time since 1993, when he coached LSU's tight ends.
