Four-Star Linebacker Commits To Georgia Over Vols

A couple of days after naming Tennessee as one of his top schools, four-star inside linebacker Breon Dixon committed to the Georgia Bulldogs.

Dixon’s announcement came via a Christmas day video with his family clad in Georgia gear.

The Suwanee, GA (Peachtree Ridge) native told Rivals.com that he wanted to go to school at a place where he could “leave a legacy and a mark”.

Dixon didn’t received a scholarship offer from Georgia until former Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart took over as a head coach in Athens.

247Sports rates Dixon as the 30th best 2017 player in the state of Georgia and the 271st best overall 2017 player in the nation.

Dixon also had offers from Alabama, Florida, Miami, North Carolina and Tennessee.
