Welcome aboard! He will see enough competition in practice this next year to prepare him for the best.
*wipes ketchup from his eyes* - I guess Heinz sight isn’t 20/20.

Yes he was a freshman.

This all sounds really good to me I'm on board.

6' 2" 161 lbs. Does this sound right for anyone who has seen him in person?

Nice addition for that 2018 class, and practices with the team for a whole year.

Good grab. He won't scare any recruits away and 16.5 ppg is an impressive average for freshman even on a bad MAAC team. I'm good with this as a depth guy.

Sounds like a good move.  High scoring who sits one year with 3 years eligibility.  This year off can spend plenty of time getting stronger.  Helps balance guard classes.

We invest 2 years in a 3 star Ellison who has a big east body, but clear flaws. He leaves and most are happy. Now we get a 0 star player who is 162 pounds and people are happy.

Alpha got his pts by being physically superior to northeast conference players (arguably worst conference). Dixon is skilled as f*ck and averaged 16.5 while built like a middle school girl. Put 20 lbs on him and he could be a big player here.

Doubt Dixon will scare Muhammad off.

If Dixon scared off Muhammad then that would be sad. Dixon seems like a good scorer to come off the bench. He's not scaring top 50 prospects away.

Just curious. Do you think Muhammad is coming?

I know nothing about this kid to think whether it is a good signing or not.  I don't like when kids leave our program after a few years because one expects to get the upside that comes with growth/maturity/development after sticking with a player through the learning years.  We will see what happens with Dixon. 

At first I was happy because Baldi, who watches more MAAC than anyone, said the kid is good and can play.  But then he posted this, so who knows.

We invest 2 years in a 3 star Ellison who has a big east body, but clear flaws. He leaves and most are happy. Now we get a 0 star player who is 162 pounds and people are happy.
