Dixon had a nice list of offers coming out of high school, picking Michigan over the likes of LSU, Notre Dame, and Oregon. He had been a teammate of now sophomore cornerback Darion Green-Warren, and like all Californians, his season was postponed to the spring. So instead of playing a senior year, he enrolled early at Michigan and went through spring ball.
Buzz about him coming out of practice was pretty much non-existent. And that's not too surprising, considering that instead of playing a season and going through spring ball to develop even further, his playing experience over the past year was halved. If you then add in that Michigan landed transfer receiver Daylen Baldwin, I think Dixon's chances of making an impact in 2021 are pretty slim. I expect him to play some, because Michigan should see some departures going into 2022 that might open some doors for playing time, but Dixon will probably not be used much.
Prediction: Backup wide receiver
Mark this one as a redshirt, and tough to hold onto for 4yrs
ReplyDeleteWorthy and Jackson departures should open up an opportunity for WRs behind Bell, Henning, Wilson, Johnson, and Sainristil. Baldwin and Anthony sound like they may be ahead for now.
ReplyDelete21 prediction: plays in 4 games.
