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

[butchna]

You feel that way about Bru too then

If they were carbon copy situations…they’re not.

2 years left to play

Some posters are acting like he's 100% diva Antonio Brown with 10% of the talent.

Forget the rumors and study the facts:
1) athletic, fast, we need speed out of the backfield
2) experienced, seasoned, already been in strength, conditioning, nutrition programs. Game ready
3) another body at a thin position

He is an upgrade. Anything else about character is purely speculative and chatty patty. We should welcome him with open arms and let our own experience influence our opinion.

Exactly right! As I said, I think all of that diva talk is a bunch of sour grapes.

It’s always so funny when AP drops a line like “UT will sign an RB by Monday” and then tweets as if taken by complete surprise that a RB is on campus Sunday afternoon. He must have so much fun.

Arms won’t be crossed but I’m not as smitten as yourself.

“IF his visit goes well”?

 

[RiseToTheTop]

He’s gonna really help us. Watch that film and tell me his skillset isn’t perfect for this offense.

 

[Geaux_Vols]

And re: locker room issues, the rest of the room can sometimes contribute to the perceived issue. A change of scenery can do wonders. The family vibe around the program now might be just what he needs. You never know.

Of course it’s all speculation.

Is he talented? Of course.

Are the rumors of him having an attitude problem true? Maybe or maybe not.

Nobody is against taking talent if they want to come here.

Heupel has a good thing going on and the culture has finally changed for the better.

We just don’t want to relive that nightmare Pruitt put us through.

Tbh I wasn't very excited about the running back position after Tiyon left but if Dixon is coming I'm allot more excited

 

[BigSteve09]

Arms won’t be crossed but I’m not as smitten as yourself.

I'm just out here stating facts. Is he not fast? Is he not experienced? Does he not add depth?

I'm not saying he's the answer to our prayers, but he does answer some of our problems.

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

Problem is Small, Wright and Whitehead all have shown a propensity for getting injured. If that happens this year, that would leave us with 2 FR RBs. It’s obvious the staff wants another RB. Dixon would be a good addition. Nobody knows if he would be a distraction here.

You almost have to count on at least one running back getting injured during the season. Brutal position to play.

Edit: Oof, hadn’t heard the news on Whitehead. That is a damn shame. Best wishes on his recovery.

Sounds like opinions juiced up after viewing a HIGHLIGHT clip.

I don’t know. Wait til after the Combine…if he’s invited.

multiple sources have said he’s a problem but you can’t deny the talent when he tries

 

[ACvol3]

If they were carbon copy situations…they’re not.

Let’s hear them. I responded to somebody saying that he’s a risk to not be a team player because he’s been to two other schools. Bru has done the same. Actually one more time

At Clemson:
He just needs to grow up, Swinney said after the game. "Needs to grow up. It's just that simple. He needs to be a team player. And just grow up. He’s a very good player, obviously.”

Last month:
“A source later confirmed to us at West Virginia Sports Now that Lyn-J was dismissed from the team”

I still see an IF

Is it really happening?
