They said in August they want to redshirt Dixon,  so I’m not surprised he hasn’t been used

 

Wouldn't they still want him to play in 4 games this season? Northwestern would be a good game to get his feet wet at a position of need as they have shifted significantly to a passing offense with the retirement of Larkin.

That's kinda what I was thinking.  I mean, you can play a player in four games, and still redshirt him, so why wouldn't you play a player in said four games?

He might not be good enough.

That could be... but I think they are trying to put good weight on him.

 

If he’s gonna play 4 games and he is as advertised a better cover LB... which 4 games you gonna choose?

 

Im going...

Ohio State-need athletic LB on field

Iowa- Need athletic LB to try and cover Fant and Hockinson

BC - Great game to get a bunch of confidence.

Michigan State- might need another baller that day?

I would replace BC with NW since we need speed at OLB to cover their spread attack.

I assume this is going to become a hot topic here soon to see who is going to get theirs burned.

 

Looks like we might be able to use a redshirt on D. Thomas as he is sidelined and can still play in 1 more game.

 

Jurgens is now a redshirt.

 

Appears for now that Dixon will be redshirted.
