Sterling Dixon on The Joe Gaither Show Episode 22, June 20, 2023
The Alabama Crimson Tide football program hosted several top prospects this past weekend on official recruiting visits. "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral" spent its Tuesday with Mobile Christian linebacker, and class of 2024 4-star recruit, Sterling Dixon.
Dixon recapped the official visit weekend, from bowling to time spent at the Nick Saban house to even lunch with "The Goat", the Mobile-native enjoyed it all.
The Leopard linebacker discussed who all was with him on the official visit and let Alabama fans know exactly where he stands after the weekend.
Many scouts have seen Dixon and say he's capable of playing both inside linebacker and edge rusher at the college level, Gaither discusses position fit with Dixon and where he's most comfortable playing defense at the next level.
The interview couldn't be complete without Dixon's thoughts on his former Mobile Christian teammate, and current Crimson Tide linebacker, Deontae Lawson. Dixon told the audience that it's Lawson's intelligence that makes him such a special football player, as he seemed to always send Dixon in the right direction as a high schooler.
He explained that he expects Lawson to take the reigns of the Crimson Tide defense this coming season and turn himself into a high-round NFL Draft pick, footsteps he's looking to follow in himself.
Dixon was gracious with his time and hit on several other topics, such as name, image and likeness, Kevin Steele's mindset and his own goals for his senior year of high school.
