  For Dylan Dixson, the highlight of the past few months was prom weekend. Aside from that, the final months of high school were really just necessary steps before Dixson's next journey as a football player and student at Colorado. "I'm very excited to be honest," Dixson said of coming to CU this summer. "I feel like I've played football my whole life for this moment, so it's just all excitement over here." Dixson, a 6-foot-2, 185-pound safety from Pearland (Texas) High School, is one of 19 newcomers set to join the Buffaloes, who are scheduled to report for summer workouts on June 13.

Physically, the Buffaloes are getting a talented safety who is the highest-rated player in their 2022 class, according to 247Sports.com. Dixson was ranked as a top-50 safety nationally by ESPN, Rivals.com and 247Sports after posting 257 tackles, 23 tackles for loss, six sacks and six interceptions during his prep career. He had 88 tackles, three TFLs and two interceptions as a senior. Projected as a safety at CU, he's been training to be as prepared as possible. "I trained as a corner to get my feet more versatile," he said. "When it comes to lifting and stuff, I kind of lift like a linebacker. I really could play anywhere, but as of right now coach says he's going to have me at safety. "I'm fine with wherever, as long as I'm gonna get on the field." - Daily Camera
