I really hope Riley Dixon gets serious All-American attention

[Alsacs]

I am serious. This guy has been an unbelievable weapon. His punts have been high and long. He has executed atleast 2 trick plays this year. Teams now need to be aware of him. I really hope the media is paying attention and this guy can win the Guy award and maybe be an AA punter.

Good job by the kid and coaches in developing him into a legit weapon.

He's going to throw a 25-30 yard bullet out of one of those fake punts or FGs at some point. Dixon is a really really good athlete.

 

[Ragman2000]

He's pulled off a fake 3 games in a row. That is insane. We'll all never see that again in our lifetime.

if some other punter has a higher yards per punt , who cares? dixon's fakes swamp that by a long shot

Was thinking the same thing...

He should definitely get a shot at the NFL just for the fact that he adds a dimension that 99% of punters do not.

Coach Addazio would call him Captain Dude. Hell, he could probably start as BC's QB right now.

It would be pretty cool to say I grew up 10 minutes away from an All-American and NFL football player. Not that cool if you live in a city, but pretty cool for Blossvale.

There are a few in the ACC but when you combine yards per punt, the fakes and the fact he seems to be able to place any punt where he wants, it's a tough combo to beat. I wonder what the stats are for putting a punt inside the 10?

There's one stat that I always thought would be helpful for evaluating punters that I've never seen before. When punting within range of dropping one inside the 20 (I'd say from the punter's own 35yd. line and closer), I'd like to see what percentage of punts end up inside the 20. Riley's percentage has to be off the charts.

i haven't found anyplace that gathers good punting stats. it's a shame because if coaches knew more about what actually happens vs what they think should happen, they'd punt less

Dan Conley and Chris Gould deserve the credit for him being here and playing, otherwise we might still be watching John Fischer shanks.

In all seriousness, he's as good as I've seen at this level because of everything he offers.
