'18 GA RB Lyn-J Dixon (Tennessee transfer)

[Coddlecreek1]

Oh what a story this would be ! Ex Vol commit returns and runs for a thousand yards. Got better hips than any returning rbs, haven’t seen the newbies . Got speed and strength (SEC Caliber) . Let’s go

I wonder where the rumor of it being this guy came from

 

[MSME Vol]

Not depth that will be a distraction to what is being built. I’m sure Heupel will do his due diligence, & trust if he offers a spot then he knows what he is doing. I’m just simply disagreeing with the “he has a ton of talent so we should just take him” mentality. There are plenty of talented players that aren’t good team players.

And as for our depth:

1. Small
2. Wright
3. Williams-Thomas
4. Sampson
5. Whitehead

If the freshmen can contribute, then I believe we are fine!

Just broke whitehead out for season

Someone who seems to he in the "know" came in here and said

"If everything goes right, the RB we will add on Monday will be the most talented on the team"

And we figure that's Dixon since no one else fits that bill and no one at 247 denied we are going after him.

Now I really really hope it's him with Whitehead out.

247 says it’s an upper body injury, but now we do need another RB for sure

This seems like the most obvious RB in the portal to go after.

I don't agree with most talented. I think small, Sampson and justin are more talented, but he does have more experience.

This guy has been at two different schools now.

Not sure this guy is a team player.

 

[Orangeburst]

I think he goes to OK State to form a new Mason Dixon line

I thought he was supposed to be a football player?

He's looking to find a school to show out and make the NFL after this year. He will be motivated by that and we will have the carries available in an offense that had a good rushing year last year.

You feel that way about Bru too then

Justin Williams-Thomas could be.

Small is not.

Small is not.

Small is a baller. He played most of last year with a shoulder injury because the team needed him until finally the pain was too much in the bowl game. I don't think you should underestimate a healthy Small. I'm excited to see Dylan Sampson too. Guys develop.

Any idea when consonants is announcing?

Not underestimating Small. He's just not as talented as Dixon. Which doesn't mean he wouldn't be better than Dixon this year. But watching game film Dixon has more talent.

I'll take both! Didn't mean to imply I didn't want Dixon.

Yeah, I think they’re discussing it in the secret recruiting thread

If Heupel wants him then I’m in.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I would hope he would recognize that as well, but let’s say he comes in and is #2 or #3 or even lower on the depth chart (I truly believe Small showed enough last year that he is the starter). How is his attitude gonna hold up & how would it effect the rest of the team? That’s all I question.

Suspend him if he acts up. Problem for team chemistry over.

From the video , IMO he made some runs that Small and Wright are not able to do. He is more talented.
