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

[drvenner]

Any idea when consonants is announcing?

He will announce for the Vowels soon.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Not seeing the same thing. Maybe I need to find other highlights. He gets downfield in a hurry…I don’t know about breaking away.

In the highlight above he does

 

[drvenner]

Massive, honestly can’t be understated

Kamara was/is a 4.5 - 4.6 guy and to your point doesn’t decelerate when making moves and gets to full speed in a hurry. THAT isn’t a criticism for this kid and I used to get annoyed when our usual suspects would point out Kamara getting caught from behind at the END of his long runs. Someone spitting out the groan-inducing “just facts” concerning his SPEED was a red flag and I was feeling bullish.

Once again…two plays against Wake Forest?

This guy has been at two different schools now.

Not sure this guy is a team player.

Knowing that Heupel has passed on a few different guys for attitude related issues I would imagine he has a pretty good idea whether this guy will be an issue or not. Moreso than ever though this year it’s not a huge risk. If he doesn’t work out he’s gone. Probably what’s been told to him, immediate opportunities to play but he’s gone if there’s any BS

 

[Devo182]

I am quite laughing at all the

"We ArE oNlY LOOkinG fOr a PowEr BacK" folks

It appears we're looking for the best running back available per Heupel's opinion Shocking

Let me ask this….

Realistically what are Dixons other options? Fall camp is about to start. You’re in the portal. A spot opens in the SEC…..

Seems like this is it, sit a year, or move down…

 

[SaguaroVols]

Guy's running out of time.... 2 years left to make some noise and get drafted. Plenty of motivation this time around.

Talent wise a def take but we have passed in him twice before when RB has always been a need. That concerns me that we are changing our minds regarding whatever it was. He seems destined to be here though. He has tried multiple times and wanted to be here so maybe that allows him to act like a good teammate for one season

In every highlight film I watched he has multiple plays where he breaks away from people. What kind of speed are you talking about? Tyreek Hill or Chris Johnson speed? This dude is the notch below them.

 

[VolByLaw]

Interesting development, back in October, TN didn't have "full interest" according to AP.

I’d lean no on Dixon. He came on his own but I’m not sure TN has full interest right now.

We need a RB, so I hope it works out.

No way.

Those are breakaway players due to their BREAKAWAY SPEED. Cordarrelle Patterson clocked at 4.4 and has the quality. He's also a "notch below them".

 

[Orange_Crush]

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

My thought as well when I saw the highlights.

Idk but he has potential to contribute fairly quickly here. Can’t imagine there’s a better position at a major program right away.

With Whitehead out I would feel very fortunate to get Dixson the day before Fall practice begins.

An upgrade too, at least on the field.

I'd be curious to see a list of players who entered the transfer portal but didn't get an offer anywhere.

Anywhere where there is a ? in the right bubble.


Portal
