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

[walkenvol]

If this is true, he should be kicked off the team for losing a fight to a punter.

How does a RB even come in contact with a punter at practice. Are kickers no longer off doing their own thing at practice?

Possibly Brooks tried to calm him down and Dixon escalated the fight?

You literally just made that rule

whoosh

If true, it’s another example of “don’t judge a book by its cover.”. You can get your ass kicked by anybody out here. Sounds like somebody learned the hard way.

 

[VolsnCards5]

if he really went after a coach after getting whooped by Brooks, then he’s an idiot

LOL, two fellers I know. One well. Scrawny, glasses wearing nerds, borderline dorks.

The difference is on one hand they can talk psychology/philosophy. Other hand, both are black belts in Jiu Jitsu, and fight in MMA. I think its the chess match that is so alluring to these guys.

Never judge.

I have a source... this is what I was told:

LJD was jawing with Mack/coaches all practice. At some point, probably during a special teams period, he and Paxton Brooks got into an altercation and Brooks kicked his a$$. Then LJD got up and went after a coach and Heup stepped in and said "you're gone." Kid is a headcase. Certainly sounds like he expected to get 1st team reps on Day 1 and was getting frustrated.

at the risk of offending our resident copperhead 'xprt....this is the kind of post that gives message boards a bad name. lol.

"he fell on a helmet" 'til he didn't.

 

[LittleVol]

Unfortunate for us and him.

More so him i think. I was definitely excited about him, but our guys are still talented.

Who's going to take him at this point?

If any part of that is true glad he is gone.

That story can't be real .

We've wanted that kid to be a Vol for like
5 years now haha

If they were getting Dixon on punt coverage/rush to get him on the field during a special teams portion...

This info came from a friend who is back working in UT media. He posted cliffnotes of "fighting a coach and getting whipped by a punter" on his Facebook in response to the dismissal article then told me the whole story.

 

[Adam2014]

I require this to be true. Punter U baby.

Moral of story: Do not mess with someone who knows how to kick.

But Brooks isn't a normal punter...heard Ben and Swain talking bout him the other day. Both were surprised how big he is...

Yeah 5’10” 195 vs 6’6” 200. It ain’t hard to figure out. Reach means a hell of a lot more in a fight than what position you play on the football field.

Having "fight " is even more important.
This kid was never a competitor it seems. Lacks fight...and if this account is true then that was reflected in this confrontation.

That rule was made when football was created.

That's not my source. Idk who that is.

 

[UTvol1fn]

That rule was made when football was created.

When football was created the best players played punter, kicker, returner, quarterback, defense.

 

[dduncan4163]

Sounds like Brooks is one mean sumbitch. Never underestimate a man that kicks balls for a living. Turns out he kicks ass for a hobby.

I anoint Paxton the new Paul Bain. Let's make this happen

 

[csprig9]

Lol
True story is he probably got frustrated bc he wasn’t getting pt, got mad at coach Mack who in turn sent him to the locker room. After practice Heupel and Mack had a talk and decided he needed to go

 

[BluetickVol01]

Close this damn thread. Why are we still talking about this scrub?
