Recruitment

An elite speedster from an elite high school in Santa Ana, California, Dixon bucked the trend of Mater Dei skill position players with a USC offer automatically becoming Trojans.

He had a final eight featuring USC, Texas A&M, LSU, Oregon, Washington State, Nebraska and Cal, but chose the Wolverines on June 25, 2020. Though it seemed like he could look elsewhere, instead, Dixon made visits to Ann Arbor on his own dime in a season where official visits weren’t allowed.

Readiness Level

With unparalleled speed, Dixon could be a day one contributor for Michigan football.
