Kentucky football picked up its 11th commit for the class of 2023 on Sunday — the fourth in six days. Jakob Dixon, a wide receiver out of Pleasure Ridge Park High School in Louisville, announced his decision to play for the Wildcats earlier today.
The 6-foot-5, 200-pound three-sport athlete expects to slide into a hybrid tight end role once he officially arrives in Lexington. Dixon posted a 4.5-second 40-yard dash time during a June camp at UK, which later led to an offer and, roughly one month later, a commitment.
“Jakob has the elite the measurables that guys at the Power Five level are looking for,” Pleasure Ridge Park’s linebackers coach Justin Kelley told KSR.
