Clemson adds Four-Star Running Back Lyn-J Dixon

★★★★  Lyn-J Dixon‍  Taylor County High School - Butler, GA

Dixon was a Tennessee commit but backed off of that pledge after the Vols struggled this past season. The 5'11, 183-pound running back was down to Clemson and Oklahoma State. Dixon visited Oklahoma State recently, and the visit gave him some pause about his decision, but he ultimately sided with the Tigers.

Dixon's first step is an explosive one, and once he gets to the second level, it's difficult to track him down.  His vision and patience are not something you often see in a young back. He's tough to corral in space and has enough strength to move the pile forward.

He is also a threat catching the ball out of the backfield. He'll need to add some weight and work on pass protection, but Dixon is a dangerous, explosive player and could find his way onto the field early.
