2014 Football Commit
« on: November 04, 2013, 10:34:26 PM »
247 Sports is reporting on their website that Shane Dixon, a 6-4 Safety at IMG Academy in FL has committed to YSU early in October. Don't know how it went unnoticed. Found an article about him. Saying he has alot of family in Ohio and he talks about how we beat Pitt last year! IMG is stacked with D1 talent. Big time program down there in their 1st year. QB committed to Penn Sate, RB committed to Alabama so this kid can play if he's starting safety. Great size at 6-4. Max preps has him with 96 tackles, 67 of them solo. 1 INT and 1 FF.

Wow I'd love to see some film on him.  6'4 is a big saftey, wondering if they hope to move him to linebacker?

This school is there just to pump out athletes in all sports.  Basketball, Tennis and now Football.  Crazy.  Look at the price of that tuition per year.

I'm following a transfer from IMG who moved back to Ohio for his Jr. year -- 6'8 TE and helped his team to a league championship this season. Lots of studs at that place. And the kid plays basketball, lol
