As a freshman, Clemson running back Lyn-J Dixon rushed for 547 yards and totaled five rushing touchdowns in helping the Tigers to a national championship.
Dixon ranked fifth in the country among qualified backs with 8.8 yards per carry, which is a school record for players who rush for at least 300 yards in a season.
With having such an impressive freshman year, one might think co-offensive coordinator and running backs coach Tony Elliott had a lot to say about the sophomore during fall camp.
“That’s a good thing you haven’t heard his name,” Elliott said.
