Outstanding UK Camp Performance Changes Recruitment for Jakob Dixon

This time last week Jakob Dixon held scholarship offers from Eastern Kentucky and Eastern Illinois. After two exceptional performances at the University of Kentucky, he has an offer from the Wildcats and has been hearing from other Power Five programs. The dramatic transformation still has not sunk in for the Louisville Pleasure Ridge Park pass-catcher.

“It was honestly a sudden change, but I always had confidence in my skill and what I do,” Dixon tells KSR. “I obviously thought going in I was going to get more exposure than anywhere else.”
