  For the past several years, Nixon and quarterback Sam Noyer were key players and leaders for the Colorado Buffaloes. Now, they will be trying to beat the Buffs, and their new teams are happy to have them on board. Nixon transferred to USC last winter, while Noyer, who started all six games for CU in 2020, transferred to Oregon State in June. Both are in their final season of eligibility. Nixon ranks 19th in CU history in career catches (99) and receiving yards (1,221). He added five catches for 39 yards in the Valero Alamo Bowl on Dec. 26, his final game as a Buff. (CU doesn't count bowl stats in career totals).

At USC, he joins a receiver group that is led by Drake London and Bru McCoy. Nixon is the only senior receiver on the team. "He brings that veteran leadership," Helton said. "Obviously he had a great experience at Colorado, very productive. That coaching staff did an amazing job with that kid, teaching him what it is to be a college football player, what it means to be a leader, and he's brought that veteran leadership to a group that's a little bit young." Helton is excited about Nixon's potential in the offense but also said the 5-foot-8, 190-pound speedster is practicing with others on kick and punt returns. "You can see (Nixon's explosiveness) on the field already in our offseason workout drills, what he brings to the table; the overall strength that he has at the position," Helton said. "Really is going to be a dynamic player for us. "We're so glad to have him. He's gonna be a productive member of our football team and I really appreciate his leadership." - Daily Camera
