Moments ago, former Clemson running back Lyn-J Dixon announced on Instagram that he will be transferring to West Virginia.

In three years at Clemson, Dixon rushed for 1,420 yards and 13 touchdowns on 218 carries. With Leddie Brown set to depart for the NFL, the Mountaineers will have a very inexperienced backfield that will consist of Tony Mathis Jr., Justin Johnson Jr., and Jaylen Anderson. 

Dixon will have an opportunity to come in and compete right away for major playing time. He could have two years of eligibility remaining.
