As conductors of the Keyion Dixon hype train, it gives The UConn Blog great pleasure to share that Randy Edsall has good things to say about him. There aren’t many players on the roster who can make that claim, so let’s cherish it.
Dixon has showed signs of playmaking ability as a receiver and kick returner, but he hasn’t been able to get going consistently. He caught 33 passes for 360 yards last year as a redshirt freshman, but only has six receptions for 90 yards so far this year. Edsall is teaching him to look at special teams as another avenue for helping out the team.
